"And
they found written in the law which YHVH had commanded
by Moses, that the children of Israel should dwell in
booths in the feast of the seventh month:
And that they should publish and proclaim in all their
cities, and in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the
mount, and fetch olive branches, and pine branches, and
myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of
thick trees, to make booths, as it is written.
So the people went
forth, and brought them, and made themselves booths,
every one upon the roof of his house, and in their
courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in
the street of the water gate, and in the street of the
gate of Ephraim. And all the congregation of them that
were come again out of the captivity made booths, and
sat under the booths: for since the days of Jeshua the
son of Nun unto that day had not the children of Israel
done so. And there was very great gladness."
