Nehemiah 8:17 in Context — Nehemiah 8
15 et proclamer cette publication dans toutes leurs villes et à Jérusalem: Allez chercher à la montagne des rameaux d’olivier, des rameaux d’olivier sauvage, des rameaux de myrte, des rameaux de palmier, et des rameaux d’arbres touffus, pour faire des tentes, comme il est écrit.
16 Alors le peuple alla chercher des rameaux, et ils se firent des tentes sur le toit de leurs maisons, dans leurs cours, dans les parvis de la maison de Dieu, sur la place de la porte des eaux et sur la place de la porte d’Éphraïm.
17 Toute l’assemblée de ceux qui étaient revenus de la captivité fit des tentes, et ils habitèrent sous ces tentes. Depuis le temps de Josué, fils de Nun, jusqu’à ce jour, les enfants d’Israël n’avaient rien fait de pareil. Et il y eut de très grandes réjouissances.
18 On lut dans le livre de la loi de Dieu chaque jour, depuis le premier jour jusqu’au dernier. On célébra la fête pendant sept jours, et il y eut une assemblée solennelle le huitième jour, comme cela est ordonné.
