In Leviticus 23:39, Moses returns to the discussion regarding the Feast of Booths. The placement of these verses at the end of Leviticus 23:1–44 does not necessarily mean that a later editor added the material. It may be that further elaboration is necessary due to lack of detail in the earlier explanation of the festival. The earlier descriptions of the Feast of Booths focused on the prohibition against work in addition to the required sacrifices. The following verses add further tasks for the people.
39 Le quinzième jour du septième mois, quand vous récolterez les produits du pays, vous célébrerez donc une fête à l'Eternel, pendant sept jours: le premier jour sera un jour de repos, et le huitième sera un jour de repos.
