Sukkot, Feast of Tabernacles, is a prophetic, thanksgiving holiday

Written on September 29, 2023. Posted in PT Middle East.

The Feast of Tabernacles also looks forward to the final ingathering, when not only Israel but ‘many nations’ will be gathered to the Lord at Jerusalem

The final holiday in the biblical calendar, the Feast of Tabernacles, called Sukkot in Hebrew, has arrived.

All across Israel, booths (sukkot) are set up next to homes and restaurants to observe one of the most festive holidays in the Jewish calendar.

What is the Feast of Tabernacles?

^“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.” Leviticus 23:33-34

The feast is referred to by two names in the biblical texts, the Feast of Ingathering (Exodus 23:16) and the Feast of Booths/Tabernacles (Leviticus 23:33-43).

In Rabbinic Judaism, we see these two elements incorporated in celebration, an agricultural focus and the dwelling within booths.

As the end of the agricultural year approaches, the name ‘Feast of Ingathering’ represents the final gathering of the fruits. In this regard, Sukkot is a type of fall thanksgiving festival, celebrating the successful harvest of the spring and summer.
