Listen from:
The feasts of Jehovah were seven in number (Lev. 23), and are termed in John's Gospel "feasts of the Jews," because there the moral rejection of the Lord is assumed from the commencement of the gospel (chapters 1,10 and 11).
1. The Sabbath—God's eternal rest for man and creation (Heb. 3;4).
4. The Feast of Weeks—Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came down and formed the Church (Acts 2).
5. The Feast of Trumpets—Israel again summoned and gathered to her land and God (Psa. 81).
6. The Day of Atonement—Israel coming into the blessing of redemption (Zech. 12).
