“You must count seven weeks (“sevened”; 49 days; shabua) for yourself. Begin to count seven weeks from when you begin to put the sickle (“cutting, extermination”; separation; #2779) to the standing (upright) grain (“rises, rise”; faith filled thoughts; #7054) (16:9) Seven sevens is indeed the “weeks” we have been discussing. 49 days after the final sabbath after the Feast of Unleavened Bread, this mental gathering is commanded. “Then [after the 49 days] you shall observe (consciously keep) the Feast (mind festival and mind separation from “self” will) of weeks (49 = 13 = 4 = the mind being completed by the will of Yahweh) to Yahweh with a proportion (mentally allotted) of a spontaneous offering from your hand (ability to grasp), which you will give just as Yahweh blesses (consciously awakens) you.” (v.10) Mental blessings as a sacrifice unto Yahweh as an act of obedience, which then releases His mental blessings into the center of your consciousness. “You shall rejoice (mentally laud) in front of Yahweh your Father (Your Principal thought) – you, your son (“builder” of a holy conscience), your laughter (“builder” of understanding) your manservant (“bond servant, work”; thoughts still striving for perfection; #5650), your maidservant (“bond servant, work”; thoughts still striving for understanding; #5650), the Levite (“unifying” faculty branch within) who lives within your city (thought habitations), the stranger (foreign thoughts), the fatherless (“be lonely”; secluded thoughts; #3490), and the widows (“desolate”; bereaved thoughts; #490) among you — at the place (mental space) Yahweh chooses to establish (consciously connect) His Name.” (v.11) A total – mental connection with every thought proceeding forth and nothing less. “And you must remember that you were a slave (mentally bond) in Egypt (carnal, material consciousness), and you must be careful to observe (mentally perceive) and do (mentally keep) these statutes (mind precepts).” (v.12)

And so we have now come to know and understand the conscious ideas of the Feast of Harvest/Weeks/Firstfruits. And now we look to the next commanded mental appointment commonly known as the “Feast of Tabernacles”.

FEAST OF INGATHERING/TABERNACLES
The Hebrew word for Ingathering is aciyph (aw-seef).
Its definition, “gathered”; 4*614. Its root is acaph (aw-saf), “gather, receive”; #622
The Hebrew word for Tabernacles is cukkah (sook-kaw).
Its definition, “hut, lair”; #5520. Its root is cok (soke), “hut, entwined”; #5520. Its root is cakak (saw-kak), “entwine, protect”; #5521. This would also be the proper word and translations for the word commonly known as “booths”.

It is only at Exodus 23:16 and 34:22 that we are given the title “Ingathering”. The Hebraic intent speaks to a time of mental gathering from the will of Yahweh of course, and we do well to understand that the “gathering” correlates directly with the Hebrew word cukkah (Tabernacles), in that it too speaks to a mental state. We come to realize that the Tabernacle is the place where the conscience called man meets with the Perfect Conscience, the revealed aspect of the Mind of Yahweh. Revealed? ‘Yes of course — He is far more than the place in each soul where He allows for communion. We have our word Cukkah (commonly known as “Succoth”) and we have our intent, so let’s shore up both the intent and the true reality that we are dealing solely with matters of the Kingdom within.
