    Leviticus 23 FEAST OF TRUMPETS, BOOTHS, DAY OF ATONEMENT

    The next feast began in the seventh month (Tishri) in September-October with the blowing of the Trumpets at the first sighting of the new moon. This Holy Day was the beginning of a solemn time for the Israelites. The day is called Rosh Hoshannah and celebrates the end of the harvest season. Thanksgiving is made to YHWH for His provision. the blowing of the Trumpet commemorates the sound of trumpets heard from Mt. Sinai when YHWH descended. Trumpets were sounded for war, and for the crowing of a king. For the church, the sounding of the trumpet from heaven will be the sign that Jesus is returning to win the last war, resurrect the saints and the wicked, and judge mankind. This is the time of the Harvest of souls by the angels. This. is the time when a new heaven and a new earth will replace the corrupted heaven and earth. This is the consummation of history.

    Following the Feast of Trumpets is the Feast of Booths which commemorates the Israelites dwelling in tents or temporary booths during their wanderings in the wilderness. They are to remember how God guide these people who were sojourning to the land promised to their fore-fathers-Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and to these Israelites particularly. For the church, this feast reminds us that we are foreigners in this world as we wait for resurrection and our inheritance in heaven with the New Jerusalem where we will forever be with the Lord.

    After the Feast of Booths comes the Day of Atonement (Yom Kipper). This is the annual time when the high priest goes into the Holy of Holies to sprinkle the blood of the sacrifice onto the Mercy Seat on the Ark of the Covenant. This is the most solemn day of the year, when Israelites repent of their sins for the past year and participate in this feast to have their sins removed onto a scapegoat that is released into the wilderness to take away their sins and the blood of the other lamb is sprinkled to atone for their sins
