Having just returned from Jerusalem and celebrating my second feast in the Land, I can tell you that being there changes me. You may also understand from numerous travel posts concerning our most recent trip, being in Israel at the pilgrim feasts has a profound effect on Judah to see us in the Land.
Oddly, there are a number of objections given for why some people do not go up for the feasts. Following is an introduction to the subject written by Sue Wyatt with some forewords by the Barking Fox and then a series of short articles written by Bob Parham and hosted by Lamb’s Servant.
I HIGHLY recommend taking the time to think through and wrestle with this material. You will be challenged and, I think, changed! Buckle your seat belt….

Thanks so much for re-blogging Bob’s articles, Pete. May you be richly blessed for the big part you are playing in encouraging the brethren to harvest the blessings that come from being present in the Land (or even just being conscious of Jerusalem) during the feasts. “Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth YHVH. YHVH shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.” (Ps 128:4-5)

I have been so blessed by this teaching as I searched and read through the Scriptures. It has answered some questions I have had. Thank you for sharing. I now, with greater fervor and commitment to FATHER, say…” Next year in Jerusalem!” with YHVH’s provision!
