[1] {feasts}
The feasts of Jehovah. As given to Israel, these were simply seven
great religious festivals which were to be observed every year. The
first three verses of Lev. 23. do not relate to the \\feasts\\ but
separate the sabbath from the feasts.
11365
[2] {Passover}
The Passover,
# Le 23:4
This feast is memorial and brings into view \\redemption\\, upon
which all blessing rests. Typically, it stands for "Christ our
passover, sacrificed for us."
# 1Co 5:7
11366
[3] {bread}
The feast of Unleavened Bread,
# Le 23:6-8
This feast speaks of communion with Christ, the unleavened wave-loaf,
in the full blessing of His redemption, and of a holy walk. The
divine order here is beautiful; first redemption, then a holy walk.
# 1Co 5:6-8 2Co 7:1 Ga 5:7-9
11370
[4] {first fruits}
The feast of Firstfruits,
# Le 23:10-14
This feast is typical of resurrection--first of Christ, then of
"them that are Christ's at His coming"
# 1Co 15:23 1Th 4:13-18
11376
[5] {fifty days}
The feast of Pentecost,
# Le 23:15-22
The anti-type is the descent of the Holy Spirit to form the church.
For this reason leaven is present, because there is evil in the church
# Mt 13:33 Ac 5:1,10 15:1
Observe, it is now \\loaves\\; not a sheaf of separate growths loosely
bound together, but a real union of particles making one homogenous
\\body.\\ The descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost united the
separated disciples into one organism.
# 1Co 10:16,17 12:12,13,20
11377
[1] {wave-loaves}
The wave-loaves were offered fifty days after the wave-sheaf. This
is precisely the period between the resurrection of Christ and the
formation of the church at Pentecost by the baptism of the Holy
Spirit
# Ac 2:1-4 1Co 12:12,13
See "Church"
# Mt 16:18 Heb 12:22,23
With the wave-sheaf no leaven was offered, for there was
no evil in Christ; but the wave-loaves, typifying the church, are
"baken with leaven," for in the church there is still evil.
11384
[2] {trumpets}
The feast of Trumpets,
# Le 23:23-25
This feast is a prophetical type and refers to the future regathering
of long-dispersed Israel. A long interval elapses between Pentecost
and Trumpets, answering to the long period occupied in the pentecostal
work of the Holy Spirit in the present dispensation. Study carefully
# Isa 18:3 27:13
(with contexts); Is 58. (entire chapter), and Joel 2.1 to 3.21 in
connection with the "trumpets," and it will be seen that these
trumpets, always symbols of testimony, are connected with the
regathering and repentance of Israel after the church, or pentecostal
period is ended. This feast is immediately followed by
the day of atonement.
11387
[3] {atonement}
The day of Atonement,
# Le 23:26-32
The \\day\\ is the same described in Lev. 16., but here the stress is
laid upon the sorrow and repentance of Israel. In other words, the
\\prophetical\\ feature is made prominent, and that looks forward to
the repentance of Israel after her regathering under the Palestinian
Covenant,
# De 30:1-10
preparatory to the second advent of Messiah and the establishment of
the kingdom. See the connection between the "trumpet" in
# Joe 2:1
and the mourning which follows in verses
# Joe 2:11-15
Also
# Zec 12:10-13
in connection with the atonement of
# Zec 13:1
Historically the "fountain" of Zec 13.1 was opened at the crucifixion,
but rejected by the Jews of that and the succeeding centuries. After
the regathering of Israel the fountain will be \\efficaciously\\
"opened" to Israel.
