THE FALL FEASTS T

The Feasts are a foreshadowing of the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, beginning with His death on the cross as the Passover Lamb (redemption and cleansing), and Pentecost (the provision of the Holy Spirit), to the Feast of Tabernacles (Glory) of God dwelling with His people. The last three Feasts will be fulfilled at the Second Coming when the Yeshua the Lamb returns as the Lion, to rule and reign over the earth.

1. Trumpets (Yom Teru’ah) – Tishri 1 (Rosh Hashanah) – Fri 18 Sept 2020 sunset The Feast of the Trumpets Lev 23:23-25. The blowing of the shofar is to signal a reminder for the harvest field workers of Israel to finish their harvest and go up to Jerusalem for worship at the Temple. It is to alert the people to go before their holy Creator in humility and repentance, who will judge sin and all who fall short of His righteousness.

2. Atonement

(Yom Kippur) – Tishri 9 - Sun 27 Sept 2020 sunsetsunset

The Feast of Atonement takes place after the 9 days of repentance and typifies the judgment of God on the sins of Israel Lev 23:26-32. In ancient times, two goats are brought before the High Priest, one is sacrificed and its blood sprinkled on the mercy seat (lev 16:15), and the other released into the wilderness (Lev 16:20), to atone for the sins of Israel.
