On the second day, the family heads of all the people, along with the priests and Levites, assembled before the scribe Ezra to study the words of the law.They found written in the law how the LORD had commanded through Moses that the Israelites should dwell in shelters during the festival of the seventh month.So they proclaimed and spread this news throughout their towns and in Jerusalem, saying,“ Go out to the hill country and bring back branches of olive, wild olive, myrtle, palm, and other leafy trees to make shelters, just as it is written.”The people went out, brought back branches, and made shelters for themselves on each of their rooftops and courtyards, the court of the house of God, the square by the Water Gate, and the square by the Ephraim Gate.The whole community that had returned from exile made shelters and lived in them. The Israelites had not celebrated like this from the days of Joshua son of Nun until that day. And there was tremendous joy.Ezra read out of the book of the law of God every day, from the first day to the last.

The Jewish Festival of Shelters was near.

But look, I am raising up a nation against you, house of Israel— this is the declaration of the Lord, the GOD of Armies— and they will oppress you from the entrance of Hamath to the Brook of the Arabah.

But we know where this man is from. When the Messiah comes, nobody will know where he is from.”As he was teaching in the temple, Jesus cried out,“ You know me and you know where I am from. Yet I have not come on my own, but the one who sent me is true. You don’t know him;I know him because I am from him, and he sent me.”Then they tried to seize him. Yet no one laid a hand on him because his hour had not yet come.However, many from the crowd believed in him and said,“ When the Messiah comes, he won’t perform more signs than this man has done, will he?”The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about him, and so the chief priests and the Pharisees sent servants to arrest him.Then Jesus said,“ I am only with you for a short time. Then I’m going to the one who sent me.You will look for me, but you will not find me; and where I am, you cannot come.”Then the Jews said to one another,“ Where does he intend to go that we won’t find him? He doesn’t intend to go to the Jewish people dispersed among the Greeks and teach the Greeks, does he?What is this remark he made:‘ You will look for me, and you will not find me; and where I am, you cannot come’?”On the last and most important day of the festival, Jesus stood up and cried out,“ If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.The one who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, will have streams of living water flow from deep within him.”He said this about the Spirit. Those who believed in Jesus were going to receive the Spirit, for the Spirit had not yet been given because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

A very large assembly of people was gathered in Jerusalem to observe the Festival of Unleavened Bread in the second month.

“ You are to celebrate the Festival of Shelters for seven days when you have gathered in everything from your threshing floor and winepress.Rejoice during your festival— you, your son and daughter, your male and female slave, as well as the Levite, the resident alien, the fatherless, and the widow within your city gates.You are to hold a seven-day festival for the LORD your God in the place he chooses, because the LORD your God will bless you in all your produce and in all the work of your hands, and you will have abundant joy.

Then all the survivors from the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD of Armies, and to celebrate the Festival of Shelters.Should any of the families of the earth not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of Armies, rain will not fall on them.And if the people of Egypt will not go up and enter, then rain will not fall on them; this will be the plague the LORD inflicts on the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Shelters.This will be the punishment of Egypt and all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Shelters.
