description: The Feast of Tabernacles provides a glimpse of the family relationships we can have by yielding to the plan of God.

Our forefather Jacob was a person given a glimpse of his future and had changed his life accordingly, opting for family relationships in the family of God rather than the wealth and power (the one-up-man-ship) he had earlier sought. God similarly (through His holy days) gives us a glimpse of what we were, what we are, and what we are to become.
