Feast of Tabernacles or Festival of Booths, or Sukkot in Hebrew for “booths”
Richard Agee recaps what the Bible has to say about the Eighth Day, the day after the Feast of Tabernacles, or Sukkot. The day has a special message of the gathering of all of Israel, including the “lost” 10 northern tribes that were scattered worldwide and seemingly forgotten. God remembers them, and Ezekiel 37 predicts their resurrection and re-education.
Hallel Fellowship celebrates the Eighth Day after the seven days of the Feast of Tabernacles with a wedding banquet. Richard Agee explains how all the “feasts of the LORD” are connected to Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) and the promised “marriage supper of the Lamb.”
The Psalms of Ascent (שִׁירים הַמַּעֲלוֹת Shirim haMa’alot, Psalms 120-135) are called such because they relate to the ancient practice of publicly singing these songs when going to God’s house in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem). These poems are connected to סוכת Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles, which runs for seven days from the 15th day of the seventh month on the biblical calendar.
People often ask, “How can I know what God wants me to do?” and “What would Jesus do?” Richard Agee explores those questions in a study of John 6-7, in which Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) explains what it means to “do the will of My Father” (John 6:40). Yeshua is the Living Word (John 1:1; John 1:14), the Living Law (Matt. 5:17-20), the Living Torah.
The accounts in the Bible about the births of Yochanan the Immerser and Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) seem to point to their being born around the times of the Biblical festivals of Passover and Tabernacles, and for very good reason based on their missions.
Point is, the Bible teaches clearly that Yeshua wasn’t born on Dec. 25.
Susan Pierce explores Bible passages on kings and kingdom and the celebration of the Feast of Tabernacles, which looks forward to return of King Yeshua (Jesus) to establish God’s kingdom on earth.
