The feast of Tabernacles was first mentioned in Leviticus 23:34 and is one of the three pilgrimage festivals in the Bible - Pesach (Passover), Shavuot (Pentecost) and Sukkot. Sukkot was regarded as a general thanksgiving for the bounty of nature in the year that had passed. The Lord also protected the children of Israel in booths after the Exodus. The feast is a time of rejoicing with the end of judgment after Yom Kippur.
Believers come from all over the world to celebrate this event by worshiping the Lord in Israel and praying for the peace of Jerusalem. It is believed to be a fulfillment of the words spoken by Zechariah when he wrote that “the nations ...shall come up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.” (Zech 14:16)
