Leviticus 23 finishes up with the final 3 feasts, which Christ will fulfill when He returns.
Here they are:
Trumpets - This feast celebrated the Fall Harvest. He will fulfill this when He calls us home at the time of the Rapture with a trumpet.
Atonement (Day of Judgement or Yom Kippur) - This was originally a time to reflect on your sin and to be repentant. Christ will fulfill following the 7 year tribulation period when the world will be judged.
Tabernacles - This was a time of joyous celebration. We will experience this in the Millennial Kingdom.
This whole feast/Christ juxtaposition makes for a very interesting study. There are so many similarities between what was and what Christ has and will do. We are so close to His return. Now all we have to do is listen for the trumpet!

Michelle: I have always wondered about the feasts and traditions the Jews do for God. I listen to a guy by the Name of John Hagee. He says that when we except Christ and are grafted in that it is our duty to follow these same Traditions. That this is what God expects of us. What do you think ?........Uncle Kent
I don't think we are necessarily to keep to the traditions and the laws, after all, we are now under grace. I think these things were there to lead to Christ, to paint a picture of Him in the minds of the Jews so they would recognize Him. Unfortunately the picture became the reality to them and they did not recognize the real thing when it walked among them.
