[203]
Let those that live as remote as the bounds of the land which the
Hebrews shall possess, come to that city where the temple shall be, and
this three times in a year, that they may give thanks to God for his former
benefits, and may entreat him for those they shall want hereafter; and
let them, by this means, maintain a friendly correspondence with one another
by such meetings and feastings together, for it is a good thing for those
that are of the same stock, and under the same institution of laws, not
to be unacquainted with each other; which acquaintance will be maintained
by thus conversing together, and by seeing and talking with one another,
and so renewing the memorials of this union; for if they do not thus converse
together continually, they will appear like mere strangers to one another.
