The Feast of Tabernacle (Hebrew סוכות sukkōt), also called Feast of Booths or Feast of Ingathering, or Sukkot, is the seventh and last feasts YAHUWAH Elohim commanded His people to observe, and it is one of the three of the annual festivals where all men are commanded to appear before YAHUWAH in the place {Yahoshea} which He chooses (*Deut 16:16). And the Feast is celebrated on the 15th of the 7th New Moon, five days after the Day of Atonement, lasting seven days.
In the 1st Covenant, the feast is intended as a reminiscence of the type of fragile dwellings in which the Israelites lived during the 40 years of wandering in the desert after the exodus from Mizraim (Egypt). However, in the Renewed Covenant, the feast serves as a reminder to followers of Yahoshea that we are required to live as sojourns (missionary lifestyle) on earth, not to be entangled in the materialistic lifestyle of worldly possession. YAHUWAH is our only portion of inheritance.
We are called to imitate and follow the footsteps of our Pastor and Savior- Yahoshea Messiah, as we sojourn here on earth en route to the Promised Land. Yahoshea, when He walked among us here on earth, showed us a treasured path to follow: the life of nothingness (losing all to gain all), displayed in His lifestyle, for He did not even have a place of His own to lay His head, either did He possess any material treasure to show for, although the earth was formed through Him. Nevertheless, He forsook all the things of this world and went about His Father's business. Therefore, He laid a path that anyone willing to enter life eternal must follow.
