starts
the
week-long
Joyous and Lighthearted
Bible
Feast of Tabernacles!
-
It is also called
Sukkot
or the
Feast of Booths!
God gave this feast to Moses.
It is a 7 day celebration.
We find information on this feast in:
Leviticus 23:34-36 and verses 39-43 and Deuteronomy 16:13-16.
Note that there is an added holiday day at the end of the feast called Shemini Atzeret. It is the 8th day. Some call it The Last Day or The Last Great Day. Many theologians think that this 8th day was the day that Jesus said the words of John 7:37.
Here is a video
showing
the Jewish people
celebrating this feast in Israel.
Note that the Jewish people
also celebrate
The Feast of Tabernacles
in the U.S. and other countries!
The word "Torah"
refers to
the first 5 Books of the Bible:
Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy
Here is a video

the lighthearted fun
of
The Feast of Tabernacles.
Here is a video
showing a
Jewish Perspective
on the Feast of Tabernacles.
When Jewish people experience Jesus as Messiah
and give their heart to him,
they are called Messianic Jews.
Below is a celebration of
Messianic Jews in the United States
on the Feast of Tabernacles in October 2020.
I know nothing about this organization
but I do enjoy the joy and dedication
they express in the following video.
God gave Moses 7 feasts to celebrate.
These are the 7 main feasts of the Jews:
Passover
Feast of Unleavened Bread
First Fruits
Pentecost
Feast of Trumpets
Yom Kippur
Feast of Tabernacles
1. Passover
– Lev. 23 beginning in verse 5.
2. Unleavened Bread – Lev. 23:6-8 (eat unleavened bread for 7 days)
3. First Fruits - Lev. 23:10-11 (New Testament - the day Jesus rose from the dead.)
4. Pentecost = Feast of Weeks = Shavu’ot – Lev. 23:16-17 – (Celebrates God giving the people the Torah) And - Book of Acts chapter 2 – this was the day when tongues of fire came over the believers in Jesus & they spoke in other languages
5. Feast of Trumpets = Rosh Hashanah = Yom Teru’ah Lev. 23:24 - This year it started on the evening of September 18, 2020. It began the Jewish Year 5781.
6. Yom Kippur = Day of Atonement - Lev. 23:27-32 (the evening of September 27, 2020) The holiest day of the Jewish year. Repentance emphasized.
7. Feast of Tabernacles = Sukkot = Feast of Booths – Lev. 23:34-36 and 39-43 / Deut. 16:13 This is a time of celebrating before the Lord in a temporary "booth" or "dwelling" that you have fun making.
