The Season of Our Joy – News from Jerusalem


Sukkot is the seventh of the seven festivals we read about in the Bible. It’s a happy festival. I mean seriously happy. So happy in fact, that 1 Kings 12:32 tells us that the Israelites simply referred to Sukkot as “The Feast” (as in, the Feast to end all feasts I presume…) In Israel today, Sukkot, or the Feast of Tabernacles as we call it, is still traditionally known as “the season of our joy”.
