High priests mock to kill Jesus
And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto
his disciples, Ye know
that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is
betrayed to be crucified. Then assembled together the chief priests, and the
scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who
was called Caiaphas, And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and
kill him. But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an
uproar among the people. (Matthew 26: 1-5)
You must have a good understanding of the feast day because Jesus' first Coming and Second Coming are deeply related to this feast day. When traveling, the Apostle Paul did not move in view of the solar calendar or calendar dates, but rather through the seasons of Israel. The 20th chapter of the book of Acts is three years older than the 18th chapter. (Matthew 26: 1-5)『And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we abode seven days. 』(Matthew 26: 1-5)『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. 』(Matthew 26: 16)
So, what day is the
feast that the apostle Paul said to the Jews in Ephesus three years ago,
"I must keep the feast coming from Jerusalem"? It is not said in the
Bible, but it is presumed to be a feast of tabernacles, since the feast of
tabernacles was said to be the great feast.(Matthew 26: 1-5)
The main feasts of
Israel are Passover, (Feast of Unleavened Bread, Feast of the first fruit),
Pentecost, Trumpet, (Feast of Atonement, Feast of Tabernacles). The Passover,
Pentecost, and Trumpets are kept as important seasons. For Passover, in
Leviticus 23: 4-8『These are the feasts of
the LORD, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD's
passover. And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast
of unleavened bread unto the LORD: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.
In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no
servile work therein. But ye shall offer an offering made by fire
unto the LORD seven days: in the seventh day is an holy convocation: ye shall
do no servile work therein. 』
The day of exodus is
January 14th by the lunar calendar. A week later, after crossing the Red Sea,
Jesus died on the cross that day. Passover is the day of the death of the Son
of God. In Leviticus 23: 15-16『And ye shall count unto
you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf
of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete: Even unto the morrow after the seventh
sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto
the LORD. 』
This day is
Pentecost. The day Jesus was resurrected was two days after the Sabbath. Easter
is called the feast first Fruit. It means harvesting the first fruit. On the
day of Jesus' resurrection, an earthquake occurred, the tomb was opened, and
from that night on the 49th (Seventh-day Sabbath) to the next day (the 50th
day), a new offering (new bread) was offered. This is Pentecost. Pentecost is
not a sacrifice with blood, but a day of offering bread. The priest offered the
rice cake first, and then another offering.
On Pentecost,
after the priest shook Sacrifice. In Leviticus 23:17, 『Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth
deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; they are
the firstfruits unto the LORD. The Ephesians says this is what unites the
Gentiles and the Jews. Two loaves of bread means that the Holy Spirit will come
on the day of Pentecost, and the Gentiles will return to the Lord. Giving the
offering after shaking it means resurrection.
In Acts 2,
God's power came precisely. The Old Testament is a type and shadow of the New
Testament. The day of Pentecost was the day Moses received the tablets of the
Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai. On that day, God expressed that he gave a ring
of weak hands. The tablet of the covenant is that it is a marriage promise. The
Spirit of God (the Holy Spirit) was poured out that day.
Like this, four
months after the spring season, Leviticus 23:24 speaks of the trumpet.『Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the
seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a
memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation. 』 From that time on,
the Jewish calendar began. January of the lunar calendar became the month of
the Passover. In the lunar calendar, July was solar calendar September 1. Jews
go to the synagogue in formal attire. So, from the evening of September 29
until the day of October 1 dawns, it is a trumpet. God said to blow the trumpet
on this day. The Passover and Pentecost were fulfilled in the New Testament,
but the Trumpet was not yet fulfilled. The Bible says to make this a new year
again.
The Bible said to
make the first month of the 14th lunar month the Exodus. It is said to be the
first month of religious power. By the way, the Jewish people have a calendar
based on the (People's calendar) Trumpet Day.
In 1 Thessalonians 1:
9-10『For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in
we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and
true God; And to wait for
his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered
us from the wrath to come. 』 It is about waiting for the Lord's return. 1 Thessalonians is the
seventh epistle, which refers to the rapture. In 1 Thessalonians 4: 14-17『For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which
sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word
of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord
shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend
from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump
of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain
shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the
air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 』
The Lord descends, and those who are raptured receive the Lord. Now Jesus Christ is at the right hand of God. When the Lord descends, He descends with the trumpet of God. This will be Yom Kippur's Day of Atonement 10 days after the Trumpet Festival in July. 8 days from July 15 is the Feast of Tabernacles. All this corresponds to the trumpet season. In Matthew 24: 30-31『And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 』 Jesus died on the Passover day, resurrected on the feast fruit, and the Holy Spirit came on the day of Pentecost. The Lord will come between July 1st, when the trumpet begins, and July 15th (Feast of Tabernacles), the last trumpet. Passover painted the blood of the Lamb on the gate, received two stone tablets at Mount Sinai on the day of Pentecost, and Sukkot was the season the people entered and kept in Canaan. Sukkot is God's own feast.

The story from the
Trumpet to the Feast of Tabernacles is the story of the Son of God. However,
the trumpet is the sound of the trumpet of God. In Exodus 19: 16-19『And it came to pass on the third day in the morning, that there were
thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the
trumpet exceeding loud; so that all the people that was in the camp trembled.
And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they
stood at the nether part of the mount. And mount Sinai was altogether on a
smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof
ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. And when the voice of the trumpet
sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by
a voice. 』
God descended
directly from Mount Sinai. Similarly, it will be the same when the Lord returns
in the New Testament. When God came, the sky was all over fire. In Deuteronomy
5: 23-24『And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the
midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire,) that ye came near
unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders; And ye said,
Behold, the LORD our God hath shewed us his glory and his greatness, and we
have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that
God doth talk with man, and he liveth. 』 Deuteronomy is the story of the 40th year in the wilderness.
