π₯ Chamishi 19, 6027 AA π₯ - The Seven Feasts: Offerings and the Messiah’s Roles
Today’s Mitzvot bring us to the extra offerings commanded for each of the seven appointed Feasts of YHVH. These are not man-made holidays — they are divine appointments, prophetic pictures, and covenant rehearsals. Each Feast unveils a different aspect of the mission of Yahusha, Ben Elohim, who came once and will come again to fulfill all that was written.
Pesach (Passover) — The Lamb Slain
Pesach’s offerings pointed to Yahusha as the spotless Lamb whose blood saves from death. The extra sacrifices proclaimed that redemption comes only through His atoning work.
Chag HaMatzot (Unleavened Bread) — The Sinless One
For seven days, unleavened bread was eaten, and additional offerings were brought. These pictured Yahusha’s sinless life, free from the “leaven” of corruption.
Bikkurim (Firstfruits) — The Risen One
The wave offering of the first ripe barley was paired with sacrifices, pointing to Yahusha as the firstfruits from the dead, the pledge of the greater harvest to come.
Shavuot (Pentecost) — The Giver of the Breath of Life
On Shavuot, with its unique leavened loaves, the offerings celebrated the outpouring of the Ruach HaQodesh, empowering the Body of HaMashiach to be His witnesses.
Yom Teruah (Trumpets) — The Coming King
This day’s blasts and sacrifices foreshadow Yahusha’s return with the trumpet of Elohim, calling His people to assemble before Him.
Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) — The High Priest and Atonement
The special offerings of Yom Kippur pictured Yahusha as our eternal High Priest, entering the heavenly Most Set-Apart Place to cover the sins of His people once for all.
Sukkot (Tabernacles) — The Dwelling King
Sukkot’s abundant offerings celebrated the future reign of Yahusha when He will dwell with His people in joy, peace, and abundance.

Prayer
Abba YHVH, thank You for Your appointed times, living pictures of redemption through Your Son. Help me to honor these days not only in observance, but in understanding. May my life bear witness that Yahusha is the Lamb, the Firstfruits, the King, the High Priest, and the Indwelling Presence. Let me be ready for the fulfillment of all things in Him. Baruk YHVH.
