SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:18
Y leyó Esdras en el libro de la ley de Dios cada día, desde el primer día hasta el postrero; e hicieron la fiesta por siete días, y al octavo día congregación, según la ordenanza.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 18. Also day by day, from the first day unto the last day, he read in the book of the law of God , etc.] That is, Ezra; this was done by him every day during the feast, whereas only the first and last days were the holy convocations on which it seems to have been read: and they kept the feast seven days, and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according to the manner ; prescribed in ( Leviticus 23:39).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 13-18 - They found written in the law about the feast of tabernacles. Those wh diligently search the Scriptures, find things written there which the have forgotten. This feast of tabernacles was a representation of the believer's tabernacle state in this world, and a type of the holy jo of the gospel church. The conversion of the nations to the faith of Christ, is foretold under the figure of this feast, Zec 14:16. Tru religion will render us strangers and pilgrims upon earth. We read an hear the word acceptably and profitably, when we do according to what is written therein; when what appears to be our duty is revived, afte it has been neglected. They minded the substance; else the ceremony ha been of no use. They did it, rejoicing in God and his goodness. Thes are the means which the Spirit of God crowns with success, in bringin the hearts of sinners to tremble and to become humbled before God. But those are enemies to their own growth in holiness, who always indulg sorrow, even for sin, and put away from them the consolations tendere by the word and Spirit of God __________________________________________________________________
