‏ Deuteronomy 16:13-15

vv. 13-15: The Feast of Tabernacles was held after the harvest, as a time of joy and thanksgiving (v. 13-15 a). God wanted His people to be cheerful and to help others rejoice too, including the stranger, orphan, and widow (Job 29:13 b). This feast looked forward to God’s future blessings, so they could rejoice in hope.
