Most important was the Passover celebrating the birthright of the na tion. Similar to our own Fourth of July it had a patriotic significance but was chiefly important because of the religious ideas it conveyed. The blood of the paschal lamb, standing for deliverance from sin, pointed to the work of Jesus and was closely associated with the- in stitution of His supper. Fifty days after Passover was ob served came the feast of Pentecost. It was a feast of thanksgiving for the first fruits of the fields and it may be significant of the full fruits of the spirit. The seventh Hebrew month was regarded as specially sacred and the lirst day was marked by the blow ing of trumpets. This was a remin der to the people of their privileges and may symbolize the joy of religi on. On the tenth day of the seventh month, the great day of atonement, the high priest entered the holy of holies to make atonement for the people. An animal ceremonial, it foreshadowed the final and perfect sacrifice on the cross. Five days after the day of atone ment the full harvest was celebrated in a feast of seven days during which the people dwelt in booths made of the branches of trees. This com memorated the journeys in the wil derness. It was a season of rejoic ing in which men acknowledged God's goodness. We may be remind ed by it of our own Thanksgiving Day in the autumn. Many lessons of value will appear in a close study of the Hebrew fes tivals. First is that the whole round of our lives should be related unto God.
