Nehemiah 8:13-15

Living Bible

¹³ The next day the clan leaders and the priests and Levites met with Ezra to go over the law in greater detail. ¹⁴ As they studied it, they noted that Jehovah had told Moses that the people of Israel should live in tents during the Festival of Tabernacles to be held that month. ¹⁵ He had said also that a proclamation should be made throughout the cities of the land, especially in Jerusalem, telling the people to go to the hills to get branches from olive, myrtle, palm, and fig trees and to make huts in which to live for the duration of the feast.
