The Feast of Tabernacles (a Harvest Sermon) Deuteronomy 16:13-17 The three great feasts of Israel the Passover, the Feast of Weeks or Pentecost, and the Feast of Tabernacles were not only commemorative of national blessings or prophetic of yet greater spiritual blessings to be bestowed, but they were conspicuously connected with the three great seasons of the tillage of Palestine the barley and the wheat harvests and the vintage.

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 16:1-22

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

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 16:1-22

CONDITIONS OF BLESSING PLACES OF WORSHIP (Deuteronomy 12:0 ) In Canaan, what were the Israelites to destroy and how thoroughly was the work to be done (Deuteronomy 12:1-3 )? What contrast were they to place between themselves and the heathen in public worship (Deuteronomy 12:4-7 )? Did this apply to the same extent in the wilderness, and if not, why not (Deuteronomy 12:8-14 )? What exception was made as to their private and domestic affairs (Deuteronomy 12:15-16 )?

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Deuteronomy 16:1-22

Conditions of Worship Deuteronomy 16:0 The time is specified, and the reason is given. This is the law, rather than a mere accident. The law is: that every month has a memory, every day has a story, every night has a star all its own. Selected instances help us to ascertain general principles. Acting upon those instances, we become familiar with their spirit and moral genius, so much so that we begin to ask, Are there not other memorable events? Are there not other times of deliverance? Have... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Deuteronomy 16:17

"Handfuls of Purpose" For All Gleaners "... as he is able." Deu 16:17 This is the law of giving in the Old Testament, and it is the law of giving in the New Testament. It is a just and equitable law. It devolves a supreme responsibility upon the giver. It makes him an accountant in the sight of God. He has to add up his resources and diligently to consider their sum, and then to give as he may be able. This law does not relate to money only, but to time, influence, and sympathy. Nothing... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 16:16-17

Here the whole three feasts are brought within one precept for their observance. And who is there but must, in a gospel sense, desire to honour JEHOVAH in the observance of ordinances and means of grace, which keep in view the sacrifice of JESUS, the effusion of the HOLY GHOST, and that GOD hath tabernacled among us in substance of our flesh? These things are indeed great joy to all people. Luke 2:10 . read more
