Bible Readers: The Lord Jesus was likely born on the Day of Atonement and was crucified on the Passover. The

Question

Holy Spirit came 50 days later at Pentecost. Is the Feast of Tabernacles the probable time when the Lord shall return in Power and Great Glory?

**NOTE: It appears that all the Old Testament Feast Days are significant in the revelation of God to man. In Ecclesiastes 8:5 we read: "Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment." The term "wise" refers to someone who has been born of God (born-again) and has had all their sins blotted out.

***The Feast of Tabernacles was an eight day feast.

Answer 1

I quite agree

Answer 2

I thought Jesus was (theoretically) born when the shepherds were watching their flocks, including lambs, which would be in the Spring. Yom Kippur is in the late summer or fall.

I find it rather interesting that you list a verse from Ecclesiastes about keeping the commandments, then try to equate it with being "born again," given that only Jews are required to keep the commandments. Jews have no reason to be "born again," as we got it right the first time! Jews also don't believe in this idea of "having all their sins blotted out."

Answer 3

In the OT, there's a verse to the effect that when a boy finishes his work he will return to be with his father for two days. Peter said that with God a day is as a thousand years. Could it be that Jesus will return exactly 2,000 years after he ascended into heaven. After Jesus rose from the dead, he spent 40 days teaching before he ascended into heaven. And if the rapture happens aproximately 7 years before Jesus returns, I would say we are very close, even 15 years away from the rapture, 22 years from the return.

Answer 4

No. He will come on The Day of Atonement - Yom Kippur. After His return, we will all celebrate by celebrating the feast of Tabernacle because He has finally come and made tabernacle with us.

Answer 5

Jesus was not crucified on passover. Passover is why he went to town in the first place. the "last supper" was his passover meal. The only reason Easter is when it is, is because the roman catholic church, in an effort to break all ties with the Jews, redefined the setting of that date. Easter is the first Sunday, on or after the first full moon after the equinox. So it is defined by the sun, the moon and the stars. Remember that one of the signs of the evil ones influence is changing the set days and times.
the day, year and moment of his return is known only to God, anyone that tries to calculate it is going to be unsuccessful

Answer 6

hmmm, curious. Perhaps. We know not the day or time of His return.

Since Jesus was a Jew and was originally sent to correct and save the Jews, is it any wonder the occurrances happened in sync with Jewish Holy days? Many Jews did become Christians........they were the first. The Gentiles came later.

Answer 7

I assume you're using the Jewish calendar. Funny thing about the Jewish calendar - there are various interpretations. Also interesting to note is the fact that there has been controversy through the years regarding its calculation and application.

Post Talmudic times are impossible using modern rules. No body is going to figure out the time using an English translation, in my view.

Answer 8

Jesus was likely born in the Spring time and not on Dec 25. That is a well researched fact.

Answer 9

I don't know. I do know that He will return in the twinkling of an eye and like a thief in the night (unannounced). Are you ready for Him to return?

Answer 10

A good theory, one I have studied myself.
