2 Chronicles 7:8-10

8 So Shlomo held the feast at that time seven days, and all Yisra'el with him, a very great assembly, from the entrance of Hamat to the brook of Mitzrayim.

9 On the eighth day they held a solemn assembly: for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.

10 On the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away to their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that the LORD had shown to David, and to Shlomo, and to Yisra'el his people.
