This thread is only for those that want to learn. If you are not interested, please don't participate. Ask any legitimate question you want, and I will do my best to answer. I have just skimmed the top (so to speak) of a profound depth, that the church of today could find beneficial. The first thing I will present is the meanings of Hebrew letters and numbers, for without them, I have found it impossible to search for the depth that the children of Israel knew because of the language they spoke. The Hebrew language is unique unlike any other language known to man, in that it is 4 dimensional and also, like some other ancient languages, pictures mean phases of explanation.
Leviticus 23:34
34 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying , The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles for seven days unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:39-43
39 Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath.
40 And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.
41 And ye shall keep it a feast unto the LORD seven days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.
42 Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:
43 That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you,
3 And will make an offering by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering, or in your solemn feasts, to make a sweet savour unto the LORD, of the herd, or of the flock:
4 Then shall he that offereth his offering unto the LORD bring a meat offering of a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of oil.

16 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering, his meat offering, and his drink offering.
