7. SUKKOT - Tabernacles/Booths
Yahweh told the Israelites they should live in booths for seven days so that the generations would know that His people lived in booths when He brought them out of Egypt. Each Sukkot, the Hebrews build and dwell or eat in booths or temporary dwellings for seven days. A joyful celebration! Yah'shua (Jesus) is our tabernacle or dwelling place (John 14:14). The seven days of Sukkot is a celebration of the Marriage Feast of the Lamb. The final day of the Sukkot Season, the 8th day called Shemini Atseret, represents the long-awaited beginning of the 1000-year reign or Millennium of the Messiah on earth. Though many believe Yah'shua (Jesus) was born during this Feast because He was born in the late autumn/fall in a 'booth' (not in a cave as Catholic tradition teaches), Messianic Evangelicals do not regard this word association as being relevant and consider His arrival to have been in the Spring at the beginning of the Passover Season. This last festival of Yahweh is what all believers are looking forward to - find out why in the articles in this register.
