Sukkot was approaching, and Rabbi offered to take us into the synagogue sukkah and explain how Jewish people celebrate this important holiday the Bible calls the Feast of Tabernacles

  1. One Jewish writer described this feast as the most joyous of the seven. The feast sound like a wedding feast to me. I see Sukkot as the marriage feast of the lamb. Our bodies are described as a tabernacle. They are temporary and we await our entrance to the Promised Land.

  2. Dear Tom Simcox

    This e-mail letter and message and correspondence is regarding and concerning that I would like to take this opportunity and this privilege in sharing with you that I have just finished reading through your article and through your study Holidays Under the Stars.
    I have founded it very deeply and extremely and very keenly interested. I have a deep love and burden to minister and to reach out with the Full and with the True Gospel Message and the Good News of our Blessed and Gracious Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to the Jewish People and to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel through my financial giving and prayer support and through my involvement with Jewish Missions and with Jewish Evangelism and Ministry and Outreach at The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry Inc.
    I try faithfully to make the effort in joining and watching and listening to the Bible Conferences in regards to Israel and also in regards to Bible Prophecy and to Biblical Eschatology and End-Time Events that will usher in the return and the second-coming of our Blessed and Gracious Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
    I am a student in studying and in reading books and the Holy Bible and the Israel My Glory Magazine and the O Timothy Newsletter and Magazine in relation to Bible Prophecy and in End-Time Events that are signs that prophecy is being fulfilled, even though the Rapture of the Church can happen any moment.
    My deepest and sincere prayer and intercession for the Nation of Israel is that they will be saved and accept the Lord Jesus Christ as their Jewish Messiah and their own personal Lord and Saviour.
    I have adopted a missionary in The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry Inc. whose is Brother Cameron Joyner. I very deeply support his ministry and his outreach of the Gospel Message in The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry Inc. both financially and by prayer support. I also contact him by e-mail letter and message and correspondence to encourage him and to uplift him through my e-mail correspondence.
    If you wish to or if you like to or want to e-mail me and send me an e-mail reply and an e-mail response to this e-mail letter and message and correspondence, than you are more than welcome. My home e-mail address is [email protected]. Thank you so very, very much and may God richly bless you and your family and your loved ones as well as your ministry and your outreach and your service of the Full and of the True Gospel Message of Salvation to the Jewish People worldwide and globally and to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel at The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry Inc.
