SUMMARY: The feast of tabernacles is a festival celebrated by Jewish people to remember how God took care of them during their time in the desert. It is a time of joy and rest, and during the festival, the people make little shelters to stay in for a week. The feast also includes rituals such as the pouring of water and the lighting of the temple. Jesus celebrated the feast and used it as an opportunity to teach about himself, saying that he is the reality that the rituals point to. He also healed a man who was born blind, demonstrating that he was the Messiah who could perform the four miracles that were believed to be too hard for anyone else to do.
In Hezekiah's time, he built a tunnel to bring water from Gihon springs to the city, which emptied into the pool of Siloam. Jesus healed a man born blind and told him to wash in the pool of Siloam, signifying that he was the one who brought living waters and salvation. Religious leaders resisted this and interrogated the healed man. The future holds a worldwide feast of tabernacles where all nations will come to Jerusalem to worship the King Messiah. This is our destiny in the messianic kingdom.

The feast of tabernacles. It’s in the Bible and it starts in your favorite book Leviticus. God told the people of Israel to celebrate his festival and he told them during the feast of tabernacles, to sacrifice 70 bulls. Now why did he tell them to sacrifice 70 bulls? Because there were 70 nations given en Genesis, chapter 10, so the Jewish people of old days, understood that the 70 bulls represented the 70 nations. So the feast of tabernacles is known as the feast for all nations and one day you’re all going to go to Jerusalem and celebrate. Alleluia!
When Messiah comes but we don’t to wait, we’ve been doing it in Jerusalem since 1980 and we want you to learn a little about it tonight. Because Jesus, he celebrated the feast of tabernacles and if he did something, we all want to do it too. Amen.
