Subject: What day are we COMMANDED to gather? |
Bible Note: Lightedsteps and Steve, The Hebrew word used in the Old Testament is Strong's H4744 aqrai and is translated as meeting, assembly, convocation. In Lev. 23, we are given 8 specific days per year to be observed by aqrai(meeting), aside from the weekly 7th Day Sabbath. These days are the 1st and last days of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of First Fruits, Shavu'ot or Pentecost, the Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and the 1st and last days of the Feast of Tabernacles (these 8 days are known as High Sabbaths). If you read this chapter, you'll see that these feasts are NOT the feasts of the Jews, but the Lord calls them His feasts. I think He still lays claim to them and they are as alive and well as is His Son to whom they point(ed). Keep in mind that only the first 3 feasts along with the Passover memorial have been fulfilled. If these days were fulfilled so completely, and so right on time, it stands to reason that Trumpets, Atonement and Sukkot will be fulfilled in like manner. Halleluyah!!
