We are in the midst of Sukkot, one of the appointed times Yehoveh gave Israel.

Sukkot is more than a historical remembrance. It is a time to stop, remember Yehoveh’s faithfulness, rejoice in His provision, and consider what it means to dwell with Him.

Sukkot gives us an opportunity to step back from the traditions and calendars we’ve inherited and ask a simple question:

What did Yehoveh call holy?

“These are the appointed times of YHWH, holy convocations which you shall proclaim at their appointed times.”
Leviticus 23:4

May this Sukkot be a time of rejoicing, remembrance, and drawing closer to the One who appointed these days.

Chag Sukkot Sameach!

Sukkot is a feast that reminds us of Yehoveh’s desire to dwell among His people.

Israel lived in temporary dwellings in the wilderness, remembering how Yehoveh cared for them and dwelt in their midst. The word “sukkot” refers to these temporary shelters, making the physical act of dwelling part of the picture.

Yehoveh told Israel:
“And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.”
Exodus 29:45

Sukkot looks back to Yehoveh’s presence with Israel in the wilderness, while also pointing us toward the greater biblical promise of Yehoveh dwelling with His people.

The sukkah is temporary. His presence is not.

Palm branches in Revelation? 🌿

Revelation 7:9 describes a massive crowd from every nation, tribe, people, and language standing before the throne and before the Lamb.

And they’re holding palm branches in their hands.

Why palm branches?

For anyone celebrating Sukkot, that detail should immediately stand out.

Palm branches are part of the biblical imagery and practice surrounding Sukkot, so why does Revelation specifically mention them in this scene of victory and worship?
The passage comes immediately after the sealing of the 144,000 from the tribes of Israel.The connection raises an important question about how Sukkot may relate to the prophetic picture John is being shown.

📖 Revelation 7:9-10

“After this I looked, and there before me was a huge crowd, too large for anyone to count, from every nation and tribe and people and language. They were standing in front of the throne and in front of the Lamb, dressed in white robes, holding palm branches in their hands.”

Have you ever connected the palm branches in Revelation 7 to Sukkot?

Save this for your study of Revelation 7 and share it with someone celebrating Sukkot!

Sukkot is one of the appointed times established by God in Scripture.

Leviticus 23 gives us the details: when it occurs, that it is a holy convocation, that we are to rejoice before Yehoveh, and that Israel was commanded to dwell in temporary shelters for seven days.

Over time, many traditions and customs have developed around Sukkot. Some can help us reflect on the meaning of the feast, but it is important to distinguish what Scripture commands from what later tradition adds.

So, what does the Bible actually say?

Study with @torahclass and go back to the text with us.
📖 Leviticus 23:33-43
📖 Numbers 29:12-38

“You shall rejoice before YHWH your God seven days.”

Why should believers be curious about Yom Kippur?

Because this isn’t simply a Jewish holiday we find in the Old Testament and move past.

Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is one of the appointed times God established in the Torah. It was the most solemn day of the biblical calendar, when the High Priest entered the Holy of Holies and made atonement for Israel and for the sanctuary itself.

And that raises some important questions for followers of Yeshua:

Why was atonement necessary?

Why did God establish an entire system of priesthood, sacrifice, cleansing, and atonement?

Why could the High Priest enter the Holy of Holies only once a year?

What was the Torah teaching Israel about sin, holiness, and approaching a holy God?

And how does understanding Yom Kippur help us understand what Yeshua accomplished?

Torah Class teaches that the sacrificial system established in the Torah was not the final, perfect solution to sin. The rituals had to be repeated, year after year. Yeshua’s mission was something greater.

That makes Yom Kippur worth studying.

Not because we need to recreate the Temple rituals. We can’t. There is no Temple or High Priest today to carry out the biblical Yom Kippur sacrifices.

But because understanding what Yehoveh established in the Torah gives us a deeper framework for understanding atonement, holiness, sacrifice, and Messiah.

You don’t have to start with a conclusion. Start with the Scriptures. Be curious. Ask why Yehoveh established Yom Kippur in the first place. Then follow the pattern through Scripture and see where it leads.

HOW CAN WE PREPARE FOR YOM KIPPUR?

Yom Kippur is more than a date on the biblical calendar. It is a day set apart for atonement, humility, repentance, and remembering the holiness of God.

As we prepare, here are a few ways we can intentionally enter the day:

1. SET ASIDE THE DAY
Yom Kippur is a Sabbath. Make room in your schedule so the day isn’t consumed by ordinary responsibilities.

2. EXAMINE YOUR HEART
Take time to honestly consider where you have sinned, wandered, or become disobedient. Ask Yehoveh to reveal what needs to change.

3. MAKE THINGS RIGHT
If there is someone you have wronged, consider what repentance and restoration should look like. Repentance isn’t only feeling sorry. It involves turning back.

4. SEEK YEHOVEH
Spend time in prayer and Scripture. Read Leviticus 16 and 23 and reflect on what Yom Kippur teaches us about holiness, sin, atonement, and Yehoveh’s presence.

5. FAST AND HUMBLE YOURSELF
Leviticus 23 commands God’s people to “afflict yourselves.” Fasting has traditionally been understood as part of humbling ourselves before God. Prepare your heart for a day that is intentionally different from every other day.

6. REMEMBER THE BIGGER STORY
The sacrifices and rituals of Yom Kippur point us toward the larger biblical story of atonement. For those who follow Messiah Yeshua, this is an opportunity to remember the seriousness of sin and the mercy Yehoveh has provided through His plan of redemption.

Yom Kippur isn’t about checking a box on the calendar. It’s an invitation to stop. To examine. To repent. To humble ourselves before Yehoveh and to remember His holiness and His provision for atonement.

Leb has real profoundness to it — usually translated "heart," but in Hebrew it's the seat of thought, will, conscience, and identity together, closer to mind-and-moral-center combined than just emotion. It's the leb YHVH tells Pharaoh His next plague will finally strike, the leb Ezekiel promises God will one day replace entirely and the leb Yeshua points to when He says people can honor Him with their lips while it stays distant. Ancient Hebrew had no separate word for "brain" — the leb was where you thought and decided, not just where you felt, which is why "putting Torah on your heart" was never really about emotion at all.
