Biblical Feasts of Israel Schedule
It's exciting to see how Jesus is portrayed in The Feasts of Israel as described in Leviticus 23. Explore the Jewish roots of your faith through a message on one of these Jewish festivals.
Purim (Feast of Lots) - Book of Esther
- March 21, 2008
Commemorates the story of Esther when King Ahasuerus denounced Haman's plot to annihilate the entire Jewish population of Persia. Purim is a joyful celebration of thanksgiving for Esther's courageous acts and God's faithfulness.
Pesach (Passover) - Leviticus 23:4-8
- April 20-27, 2008
Remembers the Exodus from Egypt. A great time to have one of our Messiah in the Passover presentations.
Shavuot (Feast of Weeks/Pentecost) - Leviticus 23:9-22
- June 9, 2008
Known also as the Feast of Weeks, it celebrates the time of the giving of the Law to Moses on Mount Sinai. From Acts 2:1-41, this holiday is a celebration of the birthday of the church.
Rosh Hashanah (Feast of Trumpets) - Leviticus 23:23-25
- September 30, 2008
Celebrates the beginning of the Jewish Civil year. It is both a time of rejoicing as well as a holy occasion (see Nehemiah 8:2, 9-12).
Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) - Leviticus 23:26-32
- October 9, 2008
Is the holiest day of the Jewish year. A time to consider Jesus as our atonement.

- October 14-21, 2008
Sukkot recalls 40 years of wandering in the wilderness, living in tents (booths) and worshiping in a portable tabernacle. Sukkot is also known as the Feast of Ingathering - a wonderful harvest holiday.
Hanukkah (Feast of Dedication) - Daniel 8:13-14, John 10:22-23
- December 22-29, 2008
Hanukkah commemorates the re-dedication of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem in 165 BC, and Hanukkah holds great meaning for Christians today.
