SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:36
Siete días ofreceréis ofrenda encendida al SEÑOR; el octavo día tendréis santa convocación, y ofreceréis ofrenda encendida al SEÑOR; es fiesta, ninguna obra servil haréis.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 36. Seven days ye shall offer an offering made, by fire unto the Lord , etc.] A burnt offering; what this was, and how many were offered on each day, see at large in ( Numbers 29:13-34); on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you ; as on the first day; (see Gill on “ Leviticus 23:35”): and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord ; which was different from that on all the other days, being one bullock only, etc. ( Numbers 29:35,36); it [is] a solemn assembly ; of all the people, when they were gathered together before the Lord. Some render the word used a “restraint” or “detention”, and interpret it of restraining or detaining them from servile work, as in the next clause; so Aben Ezra and Gersom; but this sense seems to make that clause unnecessary and is never used elsewhere where that is: ye shall do no servile work [therein] ; as on the first day; (see Gill on “ Leviticus 23:35”).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 33-44 - In the feast of Tabernacles there was a remembrance of their dwellin in tents, or booths, in the wilderness, as well as their father dwelling in tents in Canaan; to remind them of their origin and their deliverance. Christ's tabernacling on earth in human nature, might als be prefigured. And it represents the believer's life on earth: stranger and pilgrim here below, his home and heart are above with his Saviour. They would the more value the comforts and conveniences of their own houses, when they had been seven days dwelling in the booths It is good for those who have ease and plenty, sometimes to learn what it is to endure hardness. The joy of harvest ought to be improved for the furtherance of our joy in God. The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof; therefore whatever we have the comfort of, he mus have the glory of, especially when any mercy is perfected. God appointed these feasts, "Beside the sabbaths and your free-wil offerings." Calls to extraordinary services will not excuse from constant and stated ones __________________________________________________________________
