Lev. 23:1• 1And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, (Lev. 23:1)
• 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)
• These feasts had a simple and primary application, as no one doubts, to the Jewish people; they, at any rate the chief of them, served the purpose of gathering Israel around Himself where He had placed His name. But it is impossible to limit scripture to such an application. I hope to give you what the Holy Ghost contemplates in the types; for God was looking on to other things (“The Feasts of Jehovah: the Sabbath” by W. Kelly)
