Leviticus 23-25: The Feast Days of Israel

In these chapters, God gives Israel instructions for feast days and the Sabbath, teaching gratitude, rest, and trust. Our teacher, John Mathews, reveals how these feasts celebrated God’s blessings and reminded the people of His provision, faithfulness, and future promises. The Sabbatical year allowed land to rest, teaching sustainable practices, while the Year of Jubilee emphasized forgiveness and resetting relationships. John highlights how each feast foreshadows Jesus Christ, from His crucifixion on Passover to the Holy Spirit’s arrival on Pentecost. This study calls us to rest in God’s promises, celebrate His blessings, and trust His provision through intentional gratitude.
