Why is the Feast of Tabernacles significant in the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The Feast of Tabernacles commemorates Israel's deliverance from Egypt and God's provision in the wilderness.

The Feast of Tabernacles, as described in John 7:2, is a Jewish festival that celebrates Israel's deliverance from slavery in Egypt and God's guidance through the wilderness. It serves as a yearly reminder of God's faithfulness and provision. During the feast, immense sacrifices, often numbering in the hundreds, were made; however, the biblical texts emphasize that 'none of that bloodshed ever took away a sin,' indicating that these rituals pointed forward to the greater sacrifice of Christ, which ultimately fulfills the need for redemption.
