Revised 2024
After God led the people of Israel out of Egypt he gave them three major feasts to celebrate: Passover, Shavuot (or Feast of Weeks) and Succot (or Tabernacles). These were all to be memorials and remind them of various stages in their redemption from slavery in Egypt.
These studies show another example of the divine order that runs unerringly through Scripture and how the Feasts correspond to the three great Christian festivals - Easter, Pentecost and the birth and return of the Messiah. These too should be memorials or landmarks to remind us of the various aspects of our redemption.
