1-2:  The feasts of the Lord.
3:  The sabbath.
4-8:  The passover.
9-14:  The sheaf of first-fruits.
15-21:  The feast of Pentecost.
22:  Gleanings to be left for the poor.
23-25:  The feast of trumpets.
26-32:  The day of atonement.
33-44:  The feast of tabernacles.
 There were consequently seven-a number expressive of perfection well-known in the Word: --{v.3} the sabbath, --{v.5} the passover and --{v.6} the feast of unleavened bread, --{v.10} the firstfruits of harvest, --{v.15} Pentecost, --{v.24} the feast of trumpets in the seventh month, --{v.27} the day of atonement, and --{v.34} the feast of tabernacles. If the sabbath be separated and reckoned by itself, the passover would be distinguished from the feast of unleavened bread, which would make the seven. I do not say this to preserve the number, but because the chapter itself speaks thus: having counted the sabbath among the others, it resumes and calls the others (without the sabbath) the solemn feasts. For, in one sense, it was indeed a feast; in another, it was the rest, when the whole was ended. (Leviticus 23 by J.N. Darby)
