שַׁבָּתוֹן
The last day, a Great day, a Holy Convocation, a Solemn Assembly
Lev.23 [34] Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, the fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles for seven days unto Yehovah.
[35] On the first day shall be a holy convocation: you shall do no servile work therein.
[36] Seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yehovah:
Today *** on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and you shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yehovah: it is a solemn assembly; and you shall do no servile work therein.
Solemn assembly: עֲצֶרֶת
עֲצֶרֶת עֲצָרָה ‛ătsârâh ‛ătsereth, ats-aw-raw', ats-eh'-reth
An assembly, especially on a holy day (a meeting)
Back to Lev. 23
[37] These are the feasts of Yehovah, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations,
to offer an offering made by fire unto Yehovah, a burnt offering, and a meat offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, everything upon his day:
[38] Beside the Sabbaths of Yehovah, and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your freewill offerings, which you give unto Yehovah.
[39] Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruit of the land, you shall keep a feast unto Yehovah seven days:
*** on the first day shall be a Sabbath, and on the “eighth day” shall be a sabbath.
[40] And you shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and you shall rejoice before Yehovah your God seven days.
[41] And you shall keep it a feast unto Yehovah seven days in the year.
It shall be a statute forever in your generations: you shall celebrate it in the seventh month.
[42] You shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:[43] That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am Yehovah your God.
[44] And Moses declared unto the children of Israel the feasts of Yehovah.
(Which we did again in 2022, Praise God)
Ezra.3
[1] And when the seventh month was come,
and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves
together as one man to Jerusalem.
[2] Then stood up Jeshua the
son of Jozadak, and
his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and
his brethren, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings
thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
[3] And they set the altar upon his bases; for fear was upon them
because of the people of those countries: and they offered burnt offerings
thereon unto Yehovah, even
burnt offerings morning and evening.
[4] They kept also the feast of tabernacles, as it is written,
and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the custom, as
the duty of every day required;
[5] And afterward offered the continual burnt offering, both of the new
moons, and of all the set feasts of Yehovah that were consecrated, and of every
one that willingly offered a freewill offering unto Yehovah.
[6] From the first day of the seventh month began they to
offer burnt offerings unto Yehovah. But the foundation of the temple of Yehovah was
not yet laid.
Neh.8
[14] And they found written in the law which Yehovah had commanded by Moses, that the
children of Israel should dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh month:
[15] And that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities, and
in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the mount, and fetch olive branches, and
pine branches, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of thick
trees, to make booths, as it is written.
[16] So the people went forth, and brought them, and made themselves
booths, every one upon the roof of his house, and in their courts, and in the
courts of the house of God, and in the
street of the water gate, and in the street of the gate of Ephraim.
[17] And all the congregation of them that were come again out of the
captivity made booths, and sat under the booths:
for since the days
of Jeshua the son of Nun unto that day had
not the children of Israel done so.
And there was very great gladness.
[18] Also day by day, from the first day unto the last day, he read in
the book of the law of God. And they kept the feast seven days; and on
the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according unto the manner.
2 Chr. 7 [8] Also at the same time Solomon kept the feast seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt. [9] And in the eighth day they made a solemn assembly: for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.
Sad, even pagans used this word ătsârâh עֲצָרָה
2Kgs.10 - [20] And Jehu said, Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.
L
Zech.14 has the feast of tabernacles
John 7
[2] … feast of tabernacles was at hand
[14] Now about the midst of the feast Yeshua went up into the temple, and taught.
****[37] In the last day, that great
day of the feast, Yeshua stood
and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
[38] He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
[39] (But this spoke he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Yeshua was not yet glorified.)
In closing for today:
Soon to come - Bul /Bool,בּוּל the eighth month – more rain
1Kgs.6 [38]… in the month Bul, which is the eighth month
This
evening, the fall holy days and Feast of the God of Israel will be over for
this year again (the last harvest of the year is
over)
Remember; be aware of false teachers that copy each other such as:
Judaism, Messianics that follow Judaism, Messianics that follow Karaites, Protestant Gentile teachers that follow Messianics that follow Karaites or Judaism.
Soon many pagan holidays will occur,
We are commanded by God - Learn not the way of the heathen
Jer.10 [2] Thus said Yehovah, Learn not the way of the heathen , and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
The customs of the people are vain
[3] For the customs of the people are
vain: for one cuts a tree out of
the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. [4] They deck
it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers
that it move not.
