Scripture Reading for Sukkot

Sukkot or the Feast of Tabernacles is the last Feast of the Lord. The feast of thanksgiving for the Lord’s provision. Throughout scripture, we see how this festival was celebrated and its significance.

We see King Solomon dedicating the Temple to the Lord during this time. We see Nehemiah and Ezra rededicating the Second Temple and returning to following the commands of the Lord. It is a time of celebration of Jesus and we see him in scripture, teaching, and celebrating on Sukkot.

    • Hi Gladys! I taught myself how to read Hebrew using books like “Time To Read Hebrew by Orna Ariel Lenchner”. Now I just practice reading from the Hebrew bBible and then look up words I don’t know. I use doitinhebrew.com and the Interlinear Bible on Bible Hub https://biblehub.com/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm for that! It’s also helpful to try to translate your favorite Hebrew song or Bible verse, because you’ll remember the meaning of the words better. Hope that helps!
