I am happy to hear that it is made very clear that these "Feasts" are Yahuah's Feasts.

Also, the Feasts are rehearsals for future events. All of the Spring Feasts were fulfilled in one week when Yahusha came into Jerusalem following the weekly Sabbath. Then he spent 4 days among the Rabbis being examined by them (akin to the lambs being examined for spots or defects). They found none yet they (the Rabbis) delivered him up for crucifixion on the 14th of Nissan after he had His Passover Seder with His disciples earlier in the evening. Do we see how he fulfilled the rehearsals set up ahead of time of when the Passover Lamb was examined, lived among the people for 4 days and then tied to the pole in the Temple to be killed? It all happened right down to the second when Christ/Yahusha said, "It is finished".

At that very moment, the High Priest uttered those same words in the Temple over the slain Lamb that was tied to a wooden stake.

Because He is Lord of the Sabbath, He arose on the Sabbath NOT on a Sunday.

It was the day after the weekly Sabbath that He fulfilled the Feat of First Fruits by presenting Himself to the Father. Only He could fulfill both the role of Redeemer and High Priest.

It wasn't until 10 days later that He showed himself to Doubting Thomas and asked him to touch the evidence of his crucifixion to see if He was who he said. Thomas replied, "My Lord and My God".

Yes, He did show himself to Mary in the garden but told her not to touch Him because He had not yet gone to the Father. John 20:17 That should prove to the Doubters that He had still the Feast of First Fruit to fulfill on the day after the regular Sabbath. I say regular Sabbath because that week, there were two High Sabbaths which were Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread.

In other words, Christ/Yahusha began this week the day after the regular Sabbath when he journeyed into Jerusalem (called Palm Sunday by Christians) and finished it the day after the regular Sabbath when He presented Himself, the First Fruit to the Father.

And Now... the sooner we all understand that the Jews/Edomites are not Israel, the sooner we can understand who are Yah's Chosen.

I can't say this enough, Matthew 15:24 KJV: "But he answered and ... I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. ... "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel."

Again....a Jew is an Edomite. He is not of the Israelites. Let's stop mixing the two together or we will never understand the Scriptures clearly.

Thanks,
Gerlinda
