Shemini Atzeret is often mistakenly referred to as the eighth day of the Feast of Tabernacles, when in fact, Shemini Atzeret is a Feast Day unto itself- the Eighth Day of Assembly. There is no use of the Sukkah (the booth) on Shemini Atzeret and the lulav and etrog (frond of the date palm tree and the citron) are not waved.
Shemini Atzeret is a reprise of the Feast of Tabernacles but without any of the rituals. The message is that all the rituals and symbolic language are important but ultimately they remain just symbols. The fact that there are no outward rituals or symbols connected with Shemini Atzeret, unlike Passover, Pentecost, the Feast of Trumpets, Atonement, and Sukkot, speaks of the unique spiritual quality of this final Festival of God. It is as if we have transcended from the physical to the purely spiritual -- from the concrete and palpable to the sublime and untouchable -- from that which can be seen to that which cannot be seen.
Shemini Atzeret, then, represents the completion of one cycle, and the beginning of another NEW cycle, according to God's Plan. It represents a NEW BEGINNING. This "new beginning" requires "rain" -- a type of the Spirit of God poured out in order to produce a new crop and a new harvest! Shemini Atzeret represents the beginning of a new RAINY SEASON, during which the earth is nourished by rain from the heavens. Spiritually, then, it represents the pouring out anew of God's Holy Spirit and the continuation and expectation of a NEW HARVEST for the Kingdom of God!
I believe that Father is raising up an "Eighth Day" people that are moving into this "new beginning" of a new RAINY SEASON. Join with us as we press into what Christ has prophesied over us, as He declares in the book of Revelation; "And He that sat upon the Throne said, Behold, I make ALL things NEW..." (Revelation 21:5)
