This week’s Torah portion, Sukkot V (CH’’M), reminds us of God’s presence and protection as we journey through life. In Exodus, we see Moses seeking reassurance from God, and God promises to go with him and show him His glory. This echoes the theme of trust and faith in God’s guidance during the holiday of Sukkot, where we dwell in temporary booths to remember the Israelites’ journey through the wilderness.
The Haftarah reading from Ezekiel speaks of God’s ultimate victory over the enemies of His people, bringing a message of hope and deliverance. This ties in with the Catholic Gospel reading from Thessalonians, urging us to give thanks in all circumstances. In both readings, we are encouraged to trust in God’s ultimate plan and to be grateful for His constant presence in our lives, even in the midst of challenges. Let us embrace the spirit of Sukkot by dwelling in God’s shelter and giving thanks for His faithfulness.
