Now in its 64th year, the Jerusalem March welcomed thousands of Israelis and supporters of the Jewish state from all over the world to march through Israel’s capital. Visitors from dozens of countries marched through the city streets waving their national flags, among them Ghana, Brazil, China, Bulgaria and the Philippines. These pilgrims were in Jerusalem to celebrate the biblical Feast of Tabernacles.

I think this is such an amazing thing to see. Nations from all around the world worshiping and honoring God during the Feast of Tabernacles. This is actually Biblical. The prophet Zechariah ends his prophecy saying that in the coming Kingdom all the remaining nations will honor God by celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles, a Jewish festival that honors the provision and presence of God.
