  4. Following His Presence Living Out the Feast of Tabernacles in Our Everyday Life

  5. Where This Teaching is Going The Command to Live in Booths Only Native Born Sons are to Live in Booths? Only Men are to “Go Up”? Avraham’s Journey in Tents The Exodus and the Journey The Pillar of Cloud and of Fire “Take Up Your Cross and Follow Me”

  6. The Command to Live in Booths Live in booths (Heb. tKoïSu or "sukkot") for seven days: All native-born sons of Yisrael are to live in booths so your descendants will know that I had the sons of Yisrael live in booths when I brought them out of Mitzrayim. I am Yehovahyour Elohim.'" (Vayiqra 23:42-43)

  7. The First Stop: Sukkoth The sons of Yisrael journeyed from Rameses to Sukkoth. There were about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children. (Shemot12:37)

  8. The Hebrew word sukkot is the plural form of the word sukkah, (Hebrew, hK'su ) which can mean a thicket, a booth made of inter-woven boughs.  This booth could be a shelter in the field for cattle, a shelter for workers in the field at harvest time, or for men in battle, or a shelter from the sun.  This is why the place where they stopped for the night was called Sukkot - they pitched their tents and erected their temporary shelters there to sleep.

  9. All Native Born Sons Are to Live in Booths Only native born sons? Live in booths for seven days: All native-born sons of Yisrael are to live in booths (Vayikra [Leviticus] 23:42) Native born (Hebrew, xr"z>a,h') – arising from, native born, full citizen. Compare mizrachshemesh“arising sun”

  10. Read inclusively, not exclusively – “All” not “Only” Could a native son but not his father be included? Were all those who lived in booths in the wilderness native-born Israelites? What about the mixed throng? The Egyptians who joined them? There is one Torah for the native born and for the alien. (Ex 12:49) You are to have one Right-ruling (mishpat)for the alien and the native-born. (Lev 24:22)

  11. Only Men are Commanded to “Go Up”? “Only Men” or “All Men”?

  12. Three times a year all your men must appear before Yehovahyour Elohim at the place he will choose: at the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks and the Feast of Tabernacles. No man should appear before Yehovahempty-handed: Each of you must bring a gift in proportion to the way Yehovahyour Elohim has blessed you.(Deut 16:16-17)

  13. Three times a year all the men are to appear before Adonai Yehovah. (Shemot [Exodus] 23:17)Three times a year all your men are to appear before Adonai Yehovah, the Elohim of Yisrael. (Shemot [Exodus] 34:23)

  14. But you are to seek the place Yehovah your Elohim will choose from among all your tribes to put his Name there for his dwelling. To that place you must go; there bring your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and special gifts, what you have vowed to give and your freewill offerings, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks.  There, in the presence of Yehovah your Elohim, you and your families shall eat and shall rejoice in everything you have put your hand to, because Yehovah your Elohim has blessed you. (Devarim 12:5-7)

  15. Count off seven weeks from the time you begin to put the sickle to the standing grain.  Then celebrate the Feast of Weeks to Yehovah your Elohim by giving a freewill offering in proportion to the blessings Yehovah your Elohim has given you.  And rejoice before Yehovah your Elohim at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name-- you, your sons and daughters, your menservants and maidservants, the Levites in your towns, and the aliens, the fatherless and the widows living among you.  Remember that you were slaves in Mitzrayim, and follow carefully these decrees. (Devarim 16:9-12)

  16. Celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days after you have gathered the produce of your threshing floor and your winepress.  Be joyful at your Feast-- you, your sons and daughters, your menservants and maidservants, and the Levites, the aliens, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns.  For seven days celebrate the Feast to Yehovah your Elohim at the place Yehovah will choose. For Yehovah your Elohim will bless you in all your harvest and in all the work of your hands, and your joy will be complete. (Devarim 16:13-15)

  17. Then Mosheh commanded them: "At the end of every seven years, in the year for canceling debts, during the Feast of Tabernacles, when all Yisrael comes to appear before Yehovah your Elohim at the place he will choose, you shall read this Torah before them in their hearing.  Assemble the people-- men, women and children, and the aliens living in your towns-- so they can listen and learn to fear Yehovah your Elohim and follow carefully all the words of this law.  Their children, who do not know this law, must hear it and learn to fear Yehovah your Elohim as long as you live in the land you are crossing the Yarden to possess." (Devarim 31:10-13)

  18. 23 Three times a year all your men are to appear before Adonai Yehovah, the Elohim of Yisrael.24I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your territory, and no one will covet your land when you go up three times each year to appear before Yehovah your Elohim. (Exodus 34:23-24) Read inclusively, not exclusively Why 3 Times a year?

  19. Avraham’s Walk of Faith dd

  20. 27This is the account of Terah. Terah became the father of Avram, Nahor and Haran. And Haran became the father of Lot. 28While his father Terah was still alive, Haran died in Ur of the Chaldeans, in the land of his birth. 29Avram and Nahor both married. The name of Avram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife was Milcah; she was the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milcah and Iscah. (Ber 11)

  21. 30Now Sarai was barren; she had no children. 31Terah took his son Avram, his grandson Lot son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, the wife of his son Avram, and together they set out from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to Canaan. But when they came to Haran, they settled there. 32Terah lived 205 years, and he died in Haran. (Bereshith 11)

  22. Terah set out for Canaan, but stopped in Haran and settled there. Then he died there! Why did Terah set out for Canaan? Why did Terah stop in Haran? Avram pressed on further…

  23. Now Yehovahsaid to Avram, "Walk yourself (Hebrew, lechlecha) from your land, your relatives, and your father's household to the land that I will show you.  Then I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you, and I will make your name great, so that you will be a blessing.  I will bless those who bless you, but the one who treats you lightly I will curse, and all the families of the earth will be blessed in you."  So Avram left, just as Yehovahhad told him to do.... (Genesis [Bereshith] 12:1-3)

  24. 12:4  So Avram left, just as Yehovah had told him to do; and Lot went with him. Avram was seventy-five years old when he set out from Haran. 5 He took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated and the people they had acquired in Haran, and they set out for the land of Canaan, and they arrived there.

  25. 6 Avram traveled through the land as far as the oak tree of Moreh at Shechem....  8 Then he moved from there toward the hills east of Bethel and pitched his tent...  9 Avram continually journeyed....

  26. 13:3 And he journeyed from place to place from the Negev as far as Bethel, to the place between Bethel and Ai where his tent had been earlier. 5 Now Lot, who was moving about with Avram, also had flocks and herds and tents. 12 Avram settled in the land of Canaan, but Lot settled ... and pitched his tents next to Sodom.... 

  27. 14Yehovahsaid to Avram after Lot had parted from him, "Lift up your eyes from where you are and look north and south, east and west. 15All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever. 17 Go, walk through the length and breadth of the land, for I am giving it to you." 18So Avram moved his tents and went to live near the great trees of Mamre at Hebron, where he built an altar to Yehovah.

  28. Avram picked up his tent and proceeded wherever Yehovah told him to go. Every time Yehovah told Avram to move, Avram pulled up his tent stakes and moved. Back to the Exodus…

  29. After leaving Sukkoth they camped at Etham on the edge of the desert. By day Yehovahwent ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night.  Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people. (Shemot13:20-22)

  30. In all the travels of the sons of Yisrael, whenever the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle, they would set out; but if the cloud did not lift, they did not set out-- until the day it lifted.  So the cloud of Yehovahwas over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Yisrael during all their travels. (Shemot 40:36-38)

  31. Travelling in the Wilderness On the day that the tabernacle was set up, the cloud covered the tabernacle--the tent of the Appointment--and from evening until morning there was a fiery appearance over the tabernacle. This is the way it used to be continually: The cloud would cover it by day, and there was a fiery appearance by night. (Bamidbar 9:15-16)

  32. Taking up and Putting Down Whenever the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the sons of Yisrael would “pull up”; and in whatever place the cloud settled, there the sons of Yisrael would encamp.At the commandment of Yehovahthe sons of Yisrael would “pull up”, and at the commandment of Yehovahthey would encamp (Bamidbar9:17-18)

  33. Numbers 33 – Pulling up… (Masei) [S;m;: Depart, Break Camp 6They left Succoth and camped at Etham, on the edge of the desert. 7They left Etham, turned back to Pi Hahiroth, to the east of Baal Zephon, and camped near Migdol. 8They left Pi Hahiroth and passed through the sea into the desert, and when they had traveled for three days in the Desert of Etham, they camped at Marah.

  34. Nasa [s;n" vb. pull out or up (pull up tent stakes), set out, to break camp, to journey “They pulled up (their tent stakes)… and they camped. They pulled up (their tent stakes)… and they camped. They pulled up (their tent stakes)… and they camped.”

  35. Chanah chanah to encamp, to bend down, to settle chanit a spear, the shaft of a spear “They pulled up (their tent stakes)… and they camped. They pulled up (their tent stakes)… and they camped. They pulled up (their tent stakes)… and they camped.”

  36. “Take Up Your Cross and Follow Me” Re-interpreting this Saying of Yeshua in Light of Its Hebraic Context

  37. Take Up Your Cross Then Yeshua said to his disciples, "If anyone wants to follow after me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.   For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.   For what does it benefit a person if he gains the whole world but forfeits his life? Or what can a person give in exchange for his life? (Mattityahu 16:24-26).

  38. Where in the Torah? “Take up your cross?” Lose your life for his sake to find it? Follow me?

  39. Stauros (noun) from i[sthmi(histami, “to stand” or “to set”); cf. Latin stauro, English staff 1. an upright stake, especially a pointed one (Homer, Herodotus, Thucydides, Xenophon). 2. a cross

  40. Stauro-o (verb) 1. to stake, drive down stakes: Thucydides 7, 25). 2. to fortify with driven stakes, to palisade: a place, Thucydides 6, 100; Diodorus 3. to crucify (Vulgate crucifigo):

  41. Anachronism Wikipedia: is a chronological inconsistency in some arrangement, especially a juxtaposition of person(s), events, objects, or customs from different periods of time. Often the item misplaced in time is an object, but it may be a verbal expression, a technology, a philosophical idea, a musical style, a material, a custom, or anything else associated with a particular period in time so that it is incorrect to place it outside its proper temporal domain. “Cross” instead of “stake”

  42. A Hebraic Understanding The cultural context of this word indicates thatYeshua was saying, ”pull up your stakes and follow me.” Abraham pulled up his tent stakes and walked wherever Yehovah led him. The Israelites pulled up their tent stakes and followed the fire and the cloud. This is the manner in which we follow

  43. Matthew 10 34 "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35For I have come to turn "'a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law-- 36a man's enemies will be the members of his own household.'

  44. Matthew 10 37 "Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; 38and anyone who does not take his cross (pull up tent stakes) and follow me is not worthy of me. 39Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. Where in the Torah does it teach us about family?

  45. Valuing Yeshua Above Family Walk yourself (Hebrew, lechlecha) from your land, your relatives, and your father's household to the land that I will show you. (Bereshith 12:1) The Call is to leave your old life behind including family if they are not answering the call. To be his true disciple calls for difficult and sometimes radical changes in our live and lifestyles and in the choices we make

  46. My Response of Faith I need to give up on the Saturday sporting event I need to give up celebrating Christmas, Easter, Halloween. Doesn’t matterwhether based on the birth of Jesus, or a secular holiday, or even as a family traditional get together “Come out from among them and be separate …and I will receive you” 2 Cor 6:17

  47. Yeshua in the Cloud and in the Fire Transfiguration – Matthew 17:1-8 Yeshua was “lit up” While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!“ (vs 5) A reminder of the fire by day and the cloud by night, which they were to always follow by pulling up their tent stakes!

  48. How Do We Live Out the Feast of Tabernacles in Our Every Day Life? When you enter the land…. Follow Yeshua wherever he leads Come together at each of the Appointed Times It’s not so much about carrying your execution stake as it is about listening to Yah’s voice and following Yeshua wherever he directs you.
