Tonight at sunset marks the beginning of the 7-day celebration of Sukkot—the Feast of Tabernacles! 🎉 This joyous festival reminds us of the Israelites’ journey through the wilderness, living in temporary shelters as they trusted in God’s provision. As we build our sukkah and gather with loved ones, we celebrate the ingathering of the fall harvest and reflect on God’s faithfulness and protection during their 40 years in the desert.
Jews around the world will construct outdoor temporary shelters called “Sukkot,” where they will eat, celebrate, and for some, even sleep! 🏕️ This feast holds particular significance for Christians, as it invites the nations to partake in its blessings. It reminds us that the Messiah is coming to dwell among us, and the God of Israel will have the final say.
Let’s embrace the spirit of Sukkot by reflecting on our own journeys and the many ways God has provided for us. May this season bring you joy, peace, and a renewed sense of faith.
Chag Sameach Sukkot from the ICEJ Canada family! 🇮🇱🍋🍃🌾 חג שמח!
