Leviticus 23:39-41
Living Bible
39 “This last day of September, at the end of your harvesting, is the time to begin to celebrate this seven-day festival before the Lord. Remember that the first and last days of the festival are special days of rest. 40 On the first day, take boughs of fruit trees laden with fruit, and palm fronds, and the boughs of leafy trees—such as willows that grow by the brooks—and build shelters with them,[a] rejoicing before the Lord your God for seven days. 41 This seven-day annual feast is a law from generation to generation.
