  2. Sukkot in Biblical Times • Speak to the children of Israel, saying, "On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the festival of Sukkos, a seven-day period for HaShem. The first day shall be a sacred holiday when you may not do any work. ...The eighth day is a sacred holiday to you... it is an atzeres, you may not do any work. ...

  3. Sukkot in Biblical Times • On the first day you must take for yourself a fruit of the citron tree, an unopened palm frond, myrtle branches, and brook willows, and you shall rejoice before HaShem for seven days. ...

  4. Sukkot in Biblical Times • You shall dwell in sukkos for seven days....it is a permanent regulation, generation after generation… So that your future generations shall know that I had the children of Israel live in sukkos when I brought them out of Egypt.. • (Leviticus) 23:34-43

  5. Sukkot in Biblical Times • The Feast of Tabernacles is by far the most festive and joyous of occasions. • The Feasts were given to Israel within the boundaries of their relationship to God. • The Fall Feasts reflect three aspects of our relationship with God:

  8. Sukkot in Biblical Times • Sukkot was celebrated following the outline in Leviticus: • The Priest offered sacrifices on the seven days, beginning with thirteen bullocks and other animals on the first day and diminishing by one bullock each day until, on the seventh, seven bullocks were offered.

  10. Sukkot in Biblical Times • Sukkot was celebrated following the outline in Leviticus: • Men carried the cluster of branches to the synagogue to wave as they rejoiced before the Lord, as commanded by the Lord (Lev. 23:40).

  11. Sukkot in Biblical Times • Water was also an important part of the Feast of Tabernacles. • This ceremony lasted seven days. • The last day was called Hosha’na Rabba -- Day of the Great Hosanna. • Priests blew trumpets & waved branches • People sang the Great Hallel (Psalms 113-118)

  12. SukkotIn The Future • The Feast of Sukkot will be celebrated in the Millinial Reign of Messiah Yeshua • Zec 14:16- Finally, everyone remaining from all the nations that came to attack Yerushalayim will go up every year to worship the king, ADONAI-Tzva'ot, and to keep the festival of Sukkot.

  13. The Sukkah • The core of the symbols in Sukkot is the Sukkah – The Booth. • The symbols point to relationship…

  14. The Sukkah • The Sukkah is a temporary structure which reminds us of two things.. • The wanderings of our forefathers in the wilderness all the while surrounded by God’s presence which brought His provision. • The transience of this life and that the only permanence and true protection is in His presence and love.

  15. The Sukkah of Yahwah – Our Protection • The Sukkahalso reminds us of Yahwah’s protection over us… • Psalm 27:5 For he will conceal me in his shelter (sukkah) on the day of trouble, he will hide me in the folds of his tent, he will set me high on a rock.

  16. The Sukkah of Yahwah – Our Protection • The Sukkahalso reminds us of Yahwah’s protection over us… Psalm • 31:19 But oh, how great is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you, which you do for those who take refuge in you, before people's very eyes! • 31:20 In the shelter of your presence you hide them from human plots, you conceal them in your shelter (sukkah - hkko ) , safe from contentious tongues.

  17. The Sukkah • The Sukkah is built with a living roof open to the stars. • Green palm leaves arranged so that the stars can be seen at night. • Greenery because HaShem is a God of Life • Stars because HaShem is a God of Light.

  18. The Sukkah • Life and Light… • Genesis 1:4And God saw that the light was good (suitable, pleasant) and He approved it; and God separated the light from the darkness. • John 1:4In Him was Life, and the Life was the Light of men.

  19. The Sukkah • Life and Light… • Genesis 1:14    Then God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years; • John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

  20. The Lulav And Etrog • And you shall take for you on the first day, the fruit of the tree ‘hadar’ and branches of palm trees, and a bough of the tree avot and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before Hashem, your G-d, seven days. Leviticus Chapter 23:40

  21. The Lulav And Etrog

  22. The Lulav And Etrog • Symbolism of the Four Species • The "Etrog," the Citron, resembles in its shape, the heart, the driving force behind all our actions. • The "Lulav," the Palm Branch, resembles the spine, which holds the body together and, without which, we would be unable to move. • The "Hadasim," the Myrtle Branches, resemble, in their almond-shape, the eyes, with which we behold G-d's World. • And the "Aravot," the Willow Branches, resemble the lips, with which we give expression to our thoughts and feelings.

  23. The Lulav And Etrog • Symbolism of the Four Species of Men • The "Etrog" has both a pleasant taste and a pleasant aroma, symbolizing one who possesses both the blessings of knowledge of Torah and of good deeds. • The "Lulav," the branch of a tree (the date palm) the fruit of which has good taste but no aroma, symbolizes the person who has Torah knowledge but not good deeds. • The "Hadas," the myrtle, which has pleasant aroma only, symbolizes the person who has good deeds but not Torah. • And the "Aravah," the willow branch, which has neither pleasant taste nor pleasant aroma, symbolizes the person who has neither Torah nor good deeds.

  24. The Lulav And Etrog • While the priest waved the Lulav the people sang the Great Hallel – Hosanna – from Psalms 113 – 118 . • This reminds us of another time when Palm branches were waved and Hosanna was sang…

  25. The Lulav And Etrog • John 12:13(The people) Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: B lessedis the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

  26. The Water Libation • Water was also an important part of the Feast of Tabernacles. • Gold pitchers of water were brought from the pool of Siloam to the temple. • The Priest would pour out the water over the altar. • The priest would recite Isaiah 12:1-3. • “Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.”

  27. The Water Libation • On the last day and greatest day of the Feast of Tabernacles (the day the Rabbis poured the water) Jesus stood and proclaimed Himself the very fountain of living water in John 7:37-38.

  28. The Water Libation • John 7:37- 38 Now on the last day of the festival, HoshanaRabbah, Yeshua stood and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him keep coming to me and drinking! Whoever puts his trust in me, as the Scripture says, rivers of living water will flow from his inmost being!"

  29. The Temple Light Show • After the water ceremony, during the evening, special festivities called Simchat Bet HaShoevah [happiness of the house of the water-drawing] occurred. • During this time the four towering menorahs were lit up and the priests would put on a "light show," performing torch dances while the Levites sang and played music.

  30. The Temple Light Show • "He who has not seen the rejoicing at the Simchat Bet Hasheavah, has never seen rejoicing in his life" (Sukkah 5:1).

  31. The Temple Light Show • It was also during this time of Sukkot that Yeshua the Mashiach revealed Himself to be the Light of the world.

  32. The Temple Light Show • John 8:12 Yeshua spoke to them again: "I am the light of the world; whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light which gives life."
