Day 51 and 52 ~ Conduct of God's people (Lev 19 and 20) ~ spiritual and physical qualifications for priests (did you know that as born again believers we are considered priests?) ~ sacrifices for altars ~ death penalty for blasphemy (would not everyone watch better what they say if this was still in place?) ~ murder penalties ~ camp laws ~ vow of Nazarites.

I have been pondering the feasts of the Lord. I have a book by Robin Scarlata and Linda Pierce on the Biblical Holidays - here is what I have refreshed myself with:

Spring Feasts

Passover (Pesach) - Nisan 14 - Jesus was the Passover Lamb.

Unleavened Bread - Nisan 15 - Jesus is the "Bread of Life".

Day of Firstfruits - Nisan 17 - Jesus is the First Fruit - He arose from the dead.

Feast of Weeks (Shavuot/Pentecost) - 50 days after Firstfuits - Holy Spirit promised.

Fall Feasts

Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah) - Tishri 1 - Jewish New Year

Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - Tishri 10 - in the OT the priest entered into the Holy of Holies - which seems to indicate it has already been fulfilled. If Jesus is sitting at the right hand of God, would not HIS work be complete?

Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkoth) - Tishri 15 - Christ is our tabernacle - is HE not tabernacling with men now by indwelling them?

All of the Spring feasts are complete - I had thought that the fall feasts were to be fulfilled at Christ's coming, however, I am not sure as it would appear that Atonement and Tabernacles would be completed.

Please jump in with any information, insight or words of wisdom that you have on the subject.

Blessings~Melissa
