In this segment: Chadwick walks through Zechariah 14:16-19, explaining that all nations must keep the Feast of Tabernacles during the millennial kingdom or face punishment like no rain and plagues. He emphasizes that this feast is the final divine appointment Yeshua will fulfill at His second coming.
So, Zechariah 14, we'll begin there, verses 16-19. "And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of Hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. And it shall be that whichever of these families of the earth do not come to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of Hosts, on them there will be no rain. If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, then they shall have no rain. They shall receive the plague with which the Lord strikes the nations who do not come to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come to keep the Feast of Tabernacles."
So, my friends, it's pretty amazing when you read this. This is Zechariah 14. This is a Day of the Lord scripture, and it'll carry you through the Feast of Trumpets and Yom Kippur if you understand the trajectory and the Day of the Lord, and then it ends up with the Feast of Tabernacles.
It carries you through a feast day pattern, if you will, with the Day of the Lord, if we understand He's coming back on the Feast of Trumpets through Yom Kippur. And then here we go with the Feast of Tabernacles. And look at what the prophet says. He gives a warning to all of the nations. And this shows you how important it is to keep the feast, to keep the Feast of Tabernacles, and to keep all feasts. Because look at what he says, the prophet says right here. He says, "It shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem," okay, that would be during the seven-year tribulation period before Yeshua comes back. So, whoever is left of all those nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King Yeshua, the Lord of Hosts, to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come to Jerusalem to worship the King Yeshua, the Lord of Hosts, on them there will be no rain.
And if the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they will have no rain. They shall have the plague with which the Lord will strike the nations who do not come to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all of the nations of the world that do not keep the Feast of Tabernacles. So, my friends, He says it about three times on how important it is to come to keep the Feast of Tabernacles during the millennial kingdom. A couple of things here. Number one, there will be nations left, just like it says here, after He pours out His wrath. Number two, He says it like three times to come up and keep the Feast of Tabernacles to worship Him. And one of those reasons, in my opinion, is I believe Yeshua was birthed on the Feast of Tabernacles. I've done videos on that, you can find online, "The Mystery of Yeshua's Birth." It's also in the book that I wrote as well.
If you follow the timeline chronologically from Luke 1 with John the Baptist's birth and Elizabeth and John and all of the Mary and all of that, then it makes total sense if we know the calendar and if we follow the calendar that He was conceived around the Hanukkah time and He was birthed in the Feast of Tabernacles for several reasons. So, anyhow, people are going to come and celebrate the King for sure, or they would have the plague and no rain. Remember, He's coming to strike the nations, and rule them with a rod of iron. This isn't some light stuff. This is hardcore stuff, because they will have to be in obedience as well. So, again, He says three times to come keep the Feast of Tabernacles, or there will be no rain and the plague for those who do not, and He will strike those with punishment. So, the Feast of Tabernacles is the final divine appointment that Yeshua will fulfill at His second coming events.
