Have you ever celebrated the Feast of Tabernacles? Most of us do not even know what that is. A tabernacle is a temporary dwelling place. In Hebrew it is called a "sukkah", and so this Festival is also called "Sukkot". The sukkah is intended to remind us of the type of fragile dwellings in which the Israelites dwelt during their 40 years of travel in the desert after the Exodus from slavery in Egypt. This eight-day Festival also depicts the wonderful world tomorrow that will be established when Jesus Christ returns to earth as King of kings and Lord of lords and Tabernacle among us once again during His Millenial reign here on earth.
Here is where we are commanded to keep this Divine Appointment wthYHWH:
Leviticus 23:33-43
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 34 Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days to the Lord...on the first day there shall be a sabbath-rest, and on the eighth day a sabbath-rest. ... It shall be a statute forever in your generations... 42 You shall dwell in booths for seven days. All who are native Israelites shall dwell in booths, 43 that your generations may know that I made the children of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
Can you imagine living in a sukkah for 40 years?
But can you imagine God coming down in the form of a man for 30 years? Compared to heaven, this earthly life is like living n a shack!
So, here in this first week of October, I am keeping the Feast, just lke our forefathers did, including Jesus himself!
Pray for the day when Yeshua comes back to this earth!
Shalom,
Dan
