In ancient Israel, hospitality was a significant cultural value, and inviting someone to share in one's resources was a sign of friendship and goodwill.

Dr. Wright notes, "We are told in the Talmud ('Yoma,' 7:4) that when, on the great Day of Atonement, the high priest had performed the various duties of that solemn day, he was escorted home in a festive manner, and was accustomed to give a festal entertainment to his friends. The maidens and youths of the people went forth to their gardens and vineyards with songs and dances; social entertainments took place on all sides, and universal gladness closed the festival of that solemn day." <p> <p> <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/zechariah/3-10.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">On that</span><br /><span class="heb">הַה֗וּא</span> <span class="translit">(ha·hū)</span><br /><span class="parse">Article | Pronoun -
