America, Israel, Christopher Columbus And The Feast Of Tabernacles
Columbus’ Ship Nina“Perry Stone, pastor of Voice of Evangelism Ministries, did an excellent job explaining the beginning of America on a strong Biblical foundation and with strong links to Israel, all of which prove God founded both nations with a purpose. This isn’t the usual teaching of our founding fathers and the documents such as the Mayflower Compact. This is information seldom ever taught and it’s eye-opening. Don’t skip it. Watch it first. You will be glad you did.

There’s more.
Christopher Columbus (Cristobal Colon) is believed to have been Jewish, but converted to Christianity. Many Jews pretended to convert in order to save their lives and property during the Spanish Inquisition, but Columbus seems to have been a genuine Christian. His letters and the diary he kept on his voyage to America have survived. In them, are clues to his Jewish heritage and Christian faith.
The Spanish Inquisition was in full force in Columbus’ time, culminating on August 2, the Ninth of Av or Tish b’Av, which is the national Day of Mourning for all Jews around the world. The Spanish Inquisition was truly a day of mourning for Jews. (further information: http://www.mazornet.com/holidays/tishabav/home.htm ) On that day, Jews trying to leave Spain clogged the ports, preventing Columbus’ three ships from leaving. He left the day after on August 3rd. His voyage resulted in the discovery of America, which became a safe haven and refuge for Jews, who fled to America to escape the many inquisitions and persecutions in other countries. To this day, America has the largest Jewish population of any nation in the world, more than the nation of Israel, and continues to be Israel’s strongest and closest ally.
Columbus landed on the outlying islands of America on the first day of the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles (Succoth). It’s one of three major Jewish feasts, of seven, that God commanded they observe annually. It centered around a temporary dwelling, or “tabernacle,” such as a structure made of 
four poles and a roof made of palm branches in which the adult males were required to live for seven days. This symbolizes, as did the tabernacle of Moses that the Israelites carried with them through their forty-year wilderness trek to the Holy Land, the temporary dwelling of mankind on the Earth, before their final dwelling in eternity with the Lord. America became a temporary dwelling for Jews who always intended to return to their promised land someday. The nation of Israel was reborn May 14, 1948. Sukkah
This is a sukkah built in accordance with God’s instructions to Moses for observing the Feast of Succoth (plural for sukkah). Succoth is a Hebrew word that means tabernacles, tents, dwellings, used in reference to temporary dwellings. What does it remind us of? A manger.
Jesus was not born in a permanent structure for the housing of animals. He was conceived about December 25, likely on the Jewish holiday, Hanukkah, known as the Festival of Lights. Jesus said He is the Light of the world. He was born during the Feast of Tabernacles. All adult Jewish males were required to go to Jerusalem and attend ceremonies at the Temple, the Tabernacle of God, where God dwelt among His people. That’s why all the inns were full. Everyone had built their sukkah for the feast and the males had to inhabit them for a time. Joseph would have been required as well and found a way to house himself and his pregnant wife in a sukkah. Jesus was born during the Feast of Tabernacles in a sukkah. John 1:14 “And the Word was made flesh and “dwelt” (tabernacled) with us.” http://www.godrules.net/library/kjvstrongs/kjvstrongsjoh1.htm
Manger of Jesus’ birth
This is clearly a Jewish sukkah built during their Feast of Succoth (Tabernacles). Christians, unfamiliar with Jewish customs, didn’t recognize this fact. With so much information on the internet, many have come to see the truth. Jesus’ family was not poor and forced to sleep in a barn built to house animals. The inns were full of travelers in town for the feast, but it’s also true that Joseph had to stay in a sukkah to fulfill his duty to the law.
The dates of the Jewish feasts are determined by the moon’s positions, thereby causing them to occur on different dates every year on America’s Gregorian calendar. In 2022, the Feast of Tabernacles begins on October 10 and runs through October 7, with Simhat Torah October 18th, and 19th for those celebrating it for two days as many do now. Columbus Day should be October 12th (every year) but our government changed it to occur on Monday every year so that people could have a three-day weekend off.
America is so linked with Israel that it’s natural to be their closest ally and share the same values. God purposed America to be that temporary dwelling for Jews, as well as teaching a greater spiritual truth. God is in control and designed all that is.” From: https://marbiesblog.wordpress.com/2012/10/02/america-israel-christopher-columbus-and-the-feast-of-tabernacles/
_______Why Would You Observe the Feast of Tabernacles?
“The Feast of Tabernacles represents the peace, prosperity and righteousness of the coming Kingdom of God, but how is it relevant to the Christians today?
Transcript from: https://www.ucg.org/beyond-today/beyond-today-daily/why-would-you-observe-the-feast-of-tabernacles
[Steve Myers] “Someone asked me the other day, "Why would you observe the Feast of Tabernacles? Is that a Christian thing?" Absolutely, it is. We follow the example of the New Testament Church.
The church in the 1st Century kept and observed, celebrated, the Feast of Tabernacles. So, what is this feast? Well, it's definitely listed in Scripture as one of the feasts of the Lord. I don't know if you've ever checked that out, but it's the feast that God has established.
It's one of His Holy Days. And so, for a period of time, we celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days. A complete festival. Seven is often a number of completeness because it represents that time, in God's plan, that has a deep spiritual meaning. Jesus Christ will return to this earth, 1 Thessalonians 4 spells that out completely, 1 Corinthians 15 as well. And so, the Feast of Tabernacles is representing that time when Christ will return as King of kings and Lord of lords. I know you've probably heard those classic choral selections that sing about that. He's King of kings and Lord of lords and He is returning. Well, the Feast of Tabernacles points to that time that Christ will literally come back to earth.
And so, the Feast of Tabernacles is representing that time when Christ will return as King of kings and Lord of lords. I know you've probably heard those classic choral selections that sing about that. He's King of kings and Lord of lords and He is returning. Well, the Feast of Tabernacles points to that time that Christ will literally come back to earth.
We can read about that in Revelation 5. Revelation 5, in fact, beginning in verse 10, it tells us, "He has made us kings and priests to our God, and we shall reign on earth." Christ will return and annihilate the kingdoms of man. Mankind will no longer be in charge. There will no longer be chaos and confusion in this world. Jesus Christ will establish righteous godly government. And for a thousand years, He will reign on this earth. Perhaps you've even prayed about this symbolic meaning of the Feast of Tabernacles.
You know, that model prayer, sometimes call the Lord's Prayer that Christ taught the disciples to pray. Perhaps you've said that prayer or parts of that prayer. It has that part that says, "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done." Christ will come back and establish His kingdom. It will come. And, of course, the rest of that prayer says, "On earth as it is in heaven." So the Feast of Tabernacles pictures that amazing time of peace and prosperity and righteous government that Christ Himself will come and establish right on this earth.
Check out The Feast of Tabernacles, find out the deep spiritual meaning behind God's purpose and His plan, and this vital step in His plan for salvation for all mankind.” From: https://www.ucg.org/beyond-today/beyond-today-daily/why-would-you-observe-the-feast-of-tabernacles
