¹² So all the people departed to eat and drink, to send portions and to celebrate with great joy, because they came to understand the words that were explained to them.

Sukkot Joy

¹³ On the second day, the heads of the families along with the kohanim and the Levites gathered around Ezra to ponder the words of the Torah. ¹⁴ They found written in the Torah that Adonai had commanded through Moses that Bnei-Yisrael should dwell in sukkot during the feast of the seventh month.
