These feasts seem strange to us, but they seem like a very good thing to prompt remembering what God had done and provoke a heart of gratitude.
Deuteronomy 16:13, 16-17 ESV
[13] “You shall keep the Feast of Booths seven days, when you have gathered in the produce from your threshing floor and your winepress.
[16] “Three times a year all your males shall appear before the Lord your God at the place that he will choose: at the Feast of Unleavened Bread, at the Feast of Weeks, and at the Feast of Booths. They shall not appear before the Lord empty-handed. [17] Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God that he has given you.
