Levítico 23:35 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 23:35

On the first day [shall be] an holy convocation
When they should be called together to holy exercises, to prayer, praising, and reading the law; and at this present time they observe this day, by rising early in the morning and going to the synagogue, where they sing and pray much; and everyone takes a bundle of branches of palm tree, olive in the right hand, and a pome citron in the left, and says, blessed be thou, O Lord our God, the Lord of the world, who has sanctified us by thy precepts, and hath commanded us to carry the palm tree bundle; then they shake it, and give a great shout, according to ( Psalms 96:12 ) ; all which they frequently repeat on this day, as well as bring out the book of the law, attended with various ceremonies, and read some passages in it ^F20:

ye shall do no servile work [therein];
as on the first and seventh days of unleavened bread, the day of Pentecost, and of the blowing of trumpets; but what was necessary for preparing and dressing food might be done.

Levítico 23:35 In-Context

33 Disse mais o Senhor a Moisés:

34 Fala aos filhos de Israel, dizendo: Desde o dia quinze desse sétimo mês haverá a festa dos tabernáculos ao Senhor por sete dias.

35 No primeiro dia haverá santa convocação; nenhum trabalho servil fareis.

36 Por sete dias oferecereis ofertas queimadas ao Senhor; ao oitavo dia tereis santa convocação, e oferecereis oferta queimada ao Senhor; será uma assembléia solene; nenhum trabalho servil fareis

37 Estas são as festas fixas do Senhor, que proclamareis como santas convocações, para oferecer-se ao Senhor oferta queimada, holocausto e oferta de cereais, sacrifícios e ofertas de libação, cada qual em seu dia próprio;
