The Feast Of Tabernacles
As
Ordained By God
By
Holy Moses
Meaning Of Tabernacles
The
Israelites were directed by God to dwell inside the tents, because they were on
travel. The tent is not a permanent home. Therefore, it reminds the Israelites
that they were visitors in Egypt, travellers on the
roads inside the wilderness, and that the world is not a permanent place of residence. The
feast reminds the children of God that God is their Father, that the earth is a
temporary place for humanity and that their permanent home is heaven.
It
is a sign to people to know that they are not sands, not the flesh, and were
not created from sands. They are children of God, who were created with the breathe of life, which breathe is the Holy Spirit from
God.
The Institution Of Feast Of Tabernacles By God
Then the Lord spoke to Moses,
saying, 34 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying: 'The fifteenth day of
this seventh month shall be the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days to the
Lord. 35 On the first day there shall be a holy convocation. You shall do no
customary work on it. 36 For seven days
you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord. On the eighth day you
shall have a holy convocation, and you shall offer an offering made by fire to
the Lord. It is a sacred assembly, and you shall do no customary work on
it.
'These are the feasts of the Lord
which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by
fire to the Lord, a burnt offering and a grain offering, a sacrifice and drink
offerings, everything on its day — 38 besides the Sabbaths of the Lord,
besides your gifts, besides all your vows, and besides all your freewill
offerings which you give to the Lord.
'Also on the fifteenth day of the
seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruit of the land, you shall keep
the feast of the Lord for seven days; on the first day there shall be a
Sabbath-rest, and on the eighth day a Sabbath-rest. 40 And you shall take for yourselves on the
first day the fruit of beautiful trees, branches of palm trees, the boughs of
leafy trees, and willows of the brook; and you shall rejoice before the Lord
your God for seven days. 41 You shall keep it as a feast to the Lord for 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 for seven days.
All who are native Israelites shall dwell in booths, 43 that your generations may
know that I made the children of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out
of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.'"
So Moses declared to the children of
Israel the feasts of the Lord.

The Importance Of Tabernacles
1. God dwells with His people.
And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may
dwell among them.
Exodus 25:8
2. Life on earth is temporary.
This
world is God’s own school. You enter it by birth, leave it at death and come
back to it through reincarnation. The earth is necessary for training, because
experience is the best teacher. You enter this school by birth, leave it at
death and come back through reincarnation. Those who are spiritually awake
neither die nor are born.
According to all that I show you, that is, the pattern of the tabernacle
and the pattern of all its furnishings, just so you shall make it.
Exodus 25:9
