Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Deuteronomy 16:15

Ver. 15. Therefore thou shalt surely rejoice— Cecrops ordained at Athens a similar law to this; commanding that masters of families should make a feast for their servants after harvest, and eat together with them who had jointly laboured in tilling the ground; for that God delighted in the honour done to servants in consideration of their labour. Macrob. Saturnal. lib. 1: cap. 10. It is probable, that Cecrops derived this law from Moses. He lived about the time of the departure of the... read more

Deuteronomy 16:13-15. THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES.(13) Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days.—For details of the observance see the passages already referred to in Exodus, Leviticus and Numbers, but more especially Leviticus 23:33-43.(14) Thou, and thy son . . .—The rejoicing of the Feast of Tabernacles was proverbial among the Jews.

INSTRUCTIONS AS TO THE PASSOVER (vs.1-8) The Passover, held in the first month of the year, was to celebrate Israel's deliverance from Egypt (v.1), but more importantly, to look forward to the death of the Lord Jesus -- "Christ our Passover.... sacrificed for us" (1 Corinthians 5:7). Of course, Israel did not understand that spiritual significance, but God did. The first Passover was held in Egypt (Exodus 12:1-51), the second in the wilderness (Numbers 9:5), the third in the plains of... read more
