So how do you celebrate these feasts?
Throughout the bible starting in the book of Lev it tells us how to celebrate these feasts
Passover
We celebrate the Passover by making a Holy Convocation and eating lamb made with fire, bitter herbs and unleavened bread. This should be done as closely as possible to how our fathers did it in Exodus the 12th chapter. We don’t deal with the sacrificial part of it because Christ fulfilled this by dying for our sins on the cross. “Exo 12:8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. Exo 12:9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof.”
The feast of Unleavened Bread should be celebrated by removing leaven (yeast) from our homes so we don’t consume anything with leaven for seven days. For seven days we are to feast and celebrate but the 1st and 7th day shall be a Holy Covocation (gathering).
“Exo 12:19 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land. Exo 12:20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread.”
Pentecost
Today we celebrate this by feasting and remembering the feast of First Fruits (Pentecost) in which the Disciples received the gift of the Holy Spirit and began to speak with different tongue and all men of all nations understood them as if they spoke in their native tongue in which they were born.
Act 20:16 For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, because he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hasted, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.
Blowing of Trumpets
We are to have a Holy Convocation and to feast unto the Most High.
Day of Atonement
We are to have a Holy Convocation in which we do no servile work and afflict our souls with fasting and prayer. A guide to how to fast is shown in these scripture: (Isaiah 58:1-14 and Matthew 6:16-18)
Feast of Tabernacles
We celebrate this feast by not doing any servile work on the 1st or 8th day of the feast and having holy Convocations in which we come together with church and feast. We are also to dwell in booths or tabernacles as our forefathers did.
Feast of Dedication
We are to feast and have a Holy Convocation to the Most High and read through the scriptures showing how we regained control of our temple.
Purim
This Holy Day is celebrated by feasting and reading through the scriptures to get the history of the events that lead to the Jews being saved from their enemies by the Most High and Mordecia and Esther. It is also a time to send gifts to each other.
“Est 9:19 Therefore the Jews of the villages, that dwelt in the unwalled towns, made the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.”
