The Torah instructs that on the 15th of Tishrei\, Israelites should observe a seven-day festival. \nIt had a dual purpose: agricultural (a harvest festival at the end of the year\, celebrating the ingathering of crops) and historical (commemorating the Israelites' 40 years of wandering in the desert\, when they lived in temporary shelters (sukkot)). \nDuring the First Temple and Second Temple periods\, Sukkot was one of the major pilgrimage festivals. Israelites traveled to Jerusalem to bring sacrifices and participate in ceremonies. \nThe First Day of Sukkot was treated as a holy convocation (Yom Tov) with no labor permitted\, sacrifices offered and rituals performed at the Temple. \nAfter the destruction of the Second Temple\, the pilgrimage and sacrificial aspects could no longer be performed. \nAfter the founding of Israel in 1948\, Sukkot regained its public\, national dimension. The First Day continues to be observed as a holy day in religious communities\, but it also launches a nationwide cultural period: \nThe holiday week is filled with festivals\, concerts\, parades\, and tourism. In Israel\, Sukkot is 7 days long\, so the first day (15 Tishrei) and the last day (Shemini Atzeret) are the primary festival days. \nAfter the founding of Israel in 1948\, Sukkot regained its public\, national dimension. The First Day continues to be observed as a holy day in religious communities\, but it also launches a nationwide cultural period.
