Nehemiah 8:12-14

Living Bible

¹² So the people went away to eat a festive meal and to send presents; it was a time of great and joyful celebration because they could hear and understand God’s words.

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.
