Feasts are the days to celebrate Jesus Birth, Death, and Pour out of His Spirit
God the Father wants all people to witness His son's birth, to celebrate Jesus' birthday party on the Feast of Tabernacle, to witness His Son’s death on Passover, and witness when He pour out His Spirit on the Pentecost. (Deut 16:16-17)
Josephus recorded 2.5 millions of Jews at the time of Jesus to gather at Jerusalem to celebrate Feast of Tabernacle.
Biblical Proof of Jesus' Birthday
To show the date of Jesus’s birthday from the bible, we need to start from the birth of John the Baptist.
Abijah
Zechariah is in the division of Abijah, so according to 1 Chronical 24, he is on the eight couse of serving in the temple. The first course will serve in the first week, the first religious month, i.e. Passover. Around april. The eighth course will be around Pentecost. A whole multitude of people with incense, for the feast of Pentecost.
Elizabeth conceived
Luke 1:24, End of June, Elizabeth conceived and hide for five month, end of November.
Luke 1:26, End of December, Angel appeared to Mary.
Baby takes nine month to be born (late September, early October).
Jesus was conceived
Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit by the end of December. A baby takes nine month, so Jesus was born in late September and early October.
Psalms 113-118 sung in the Feast of Tabernacle
God gave us commandment to rejoice (Deut 16:14). No winning! You and servants, and gentiles, all people!
Hallel, Psalms 113-118
Song 118: This is what they sing during the feast of tabernacle Song 118:14,15,21 commanded to rejoice. It's my son's birthday, and you shall rejoice.
Jesus' name is Salvation
The name Jesus (Yeshua), in Hebrew, means “Salvation”!
Yeshua is in the Tabernacle. The righteous. You have become my Salvation, my Yeshua. This is the day the Lord has made, we shall rejoice!
In the temple, they stay all night and party.
Christmas can not be in late December
Luke 2:8 Shepherds, by night, I bring you good tiding of great joy. Christ the Lord. Luke 2:13, multitude, peace and joy. So Christmas can not be in late December.
Eight Days of Celebration
How long the party last? eight days. So many Jews from all around the country for the feast. Thousands of succots (tents) for them to stay. Man made succots to stay for eight days.
Jesus is the Tabernacle among us
John 1:14 The word “dwells”, is the Greek word for “Tabernacle”. Jesus tabernacled among us. Moses build Tabernacle on the feast of Tabernacle (book of Exodus)
Luke 2:6-7 while they were there, first born, manger, no room in the inn, because 2.5M Jews there. they all stay in succots.
Big lamp wigs are using the worn out priest garment. And we find Jesus is also wrapped with white strips, represent the priest garment.
Feast of the Lord
These are the feast of the Lords. Not for the Jews. Even these, they are my feast. Feast, “Moed”, not just food, but divine appointment. For his son to be born, to die, for the spirit to pour out. A week later, Mary and Joseph come back to do sacrifice according to the law of Moses, present him to the Lord. Every male, offer a sacrifice. Turtle Dove, or two young pigeons. What they are supposed to bring? Should bring a lamb of the first year. for sin offering. (Lev 12:6) If she is not able, then bring the dove. Too poor to bring a lamb, so they brought dove. They can not afford the lamb, the Maggi did not shown up to offer them gold until a couple of years later.
Lamb of God
While Mary and Joseph thought they are too poor to offer God a lamb of a year old, they brought the Lamb of God, Jesus, to the temple. What she did not realize was, while giving circumcision to the child in the temple, Jesus shed the first blood as a covenant to fulfill the covenant with Abraham!
