Mike Ford, focusing on Leviticus 23, asserts that the command to rejoice at the Feast of Tabernacles appears seven times--extreme or consummate happiness. This command appears also in Deuteronomy 16 and Deuteronomy 14. A physical rejoicing can take place only if we have the spiritual foundation in place. The key to enjoying the Feast is including the whole family in all we do. Some of the most pleasant memories of former Feasts include camping in the woods and sitting around the campfire with family (spiritual and physical).
