It is assumed in the original posts that the first day of the seventh month was the weekly Sabbath. This is not necessarily so!!! However it can be depending on that particular year. The feasts of Yahweh as laid out in Leviticus 23 do not necessarily fall on the weekly Sabbath day. However like already stated they can. One must realize that our Bibles were written on a different calendar than our modern Gregorian calendar bought in by Pope Gregory with it being only around 300 yrs old. Before that was the Julian calendar then the Hebrew calendar. The Hebrew calendar is what is needed when reading the Bible.

The feast of Yahweh in Leviticus 23 are known as High Sabbath days. Yom Kippurim (Day of Atonements) as there were more than one atonement taking place. It is also a Sabbath Sabaton which is in the Hebrew text. Known as the holiest day in the Hebrew Calendar this is why it is also known as the fast as they afflicted themselves on that day by fasting. This is referred to by Paul in Acts 27:9.

I recommend using the Greek Septuagint as a guide but it is my opinion one should get back to the Hebrew text as much as possible. As the Septuagint is a translation of the Hebrew Text so why not go back to the original?

Again the feasts of Yahweh being Passover, Unleavened bread (the 1st and last day of this week), Shavuot (Feast of Weeks) also known as Pentecost, Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah), Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) and the Sukkot (The Feast of Tabernacles) which has 3 Sabbaths being the 1st day the 8th day and because of the 8 day period there will be the weekly Sabbath within that 8 day period.

These feasts of Yahweh (not Jewish) read Lev 23:2 are Sabbaths and Lev 23 points this out by saying that these days are Sabbaths not meaning the weekly Sabbath but again could fall on the same day as the weekly sabbath but they don't more often than not.

I don't believe the Jews have it wrong and are misleading in this case.

Blessings and Shalom

The irony - yes it is - the ALLEGED 'DAY' - of - Atonement. But 'DAY' - of - Atonement is not what is written.
Here in Leviticus 23 where ‘etsem yom’ occurs 3 times, the KJV simply translates it ‘the same day’ / ‘that same day’, the same as the Septuagint in all 17 cases of ‘etsem yom’. WHY? Because “the tenth day of the Seventh Month” was an ordinary, ‘day-of-the-week’ scheduled for HUMAN WORK, even appointed for the extraordinary and utter SOUL’S effort at atonement and peace. But the Effort, instead of being called “Your-Cessation-at-Atonement” (three times!), the Day was wrongly called ‘The Day-of-Atonement’-‘Yom Kippur’.

Called a Sabbath Sabaton, no work is to be done.

Lev. 23:28-32 NKJ
28 "And you shall do no work on that same day, for it is the Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before the LORD your God.
29 "For any person who is not afflicted in soul on that same day shall be cut off from his people.
30 "And any person who does any work on that same day, that person I will destroy from among his people.
31 "You shall do no manner of work; it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
32 "It shall be to you a sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict your souls; on the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you shall celebrate your sabbath."

When is no work done? On Sabbath days both weekly and Yahweh's feast days.

Blessing and Shalom

26And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 27Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be a day of at-one-ment: it shall be an holy con-vo-ca-tion unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering you made by fire unto the LORD. 28And ye shall do no work in that same day: for it is a day of at-one-ment: of con-vo-ca-tion, to make an at-one-ment: to make a con-vo-ca-tion for you to be before the LORD your God. 29For whatsoever soul of you it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off (in that same day) from among his people. 30And whatsoever soul it be that doeth any work (not commanded by the LORD) in that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people. 31Ye shall do no manner of work: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. 32It shall be unto you a '~sabbath-of-rest~' = <Called a Sabbath Sabaton, no work is to be done>Ancient, and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye (NOT 'celebrate' BUT) OBSERVE (NOT the LORD'S "Sabbath Day", BUT "YOUR" rest-of-afflicting of your soul and making re-con-ci-li-ation with one another of YOUR assembling-together on the tenth day of the Seventh Month.

Re: <It is assumed in the original posts that the first day of the seventh month was the weekly Sabbath. This is not necessarily so!!!>

Reply:-

Leviticus 23

“1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.

3Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.”


These are the introductory two verses,

“1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.” And therefore, yes, verse 3, “Six days shall work be done: but the Seventh Day is The Sabbath Day-of-rest, an holy convocation wherein ye shall in all your dwellings do no work because : it is The Sabbath Day OF-THE-LORD”, does affirm, that the weekly Sabbath like the other commanded for observance days, was a, or were indeed “the feasts of the LORD, which ye (Israel had to) proclaim to be holy convocations”, even the same as these other commanded for observance days in Leviticus 23, “my (the LORD’S) feasts”.

The function of the introductory clauses Leviticus 23:1,2 and 3 “the feasts of the LORD, which ye (Israel had to) proclaim to be holy convocations”, is to CATEGORIZE AND DISTINGUISH "The Seventh Day Sabbath OF THE LORD" FROM all commanded for observance days as "the feasts” -- NOT TO IDENTIFY any and all, which is what your, Ancient's presuppositions, require, e.g., <that the first day of the seventh month was the weekly Sabbath ... (h)owever ... can be depending on that particular year>.

Now that is irreconcilable with the clear INTENT of the 'Instruction' Leviticus 23 as well as with the clear CONTENT and CONTEXT as well as larger and clear CHIASTIC CONSTRUCT of the whole of Leviticus 23 IGNORING parallel repeating clauses and phrases, e.g. 1:1-3,4 and 37These are the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering, and a meat offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, every thing upon his day: 38Beside the sabbaths of the LORD, and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your freewill offerings, which ye give unto the LORD.

This is the standard, self-created, but in every respect irrelevant and ethereal 'argument' to understand, or to prove, or to describe, <what is needed when reading the Bible...> SO THAT <the feasts of Yahweh being Passover, Unleavened bread (the 1st and last day of this week), Shavuot (Feast of Weeks) also known as Pentecost, Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah), Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) and the Sukkot (The Feast of Tabernacles) which has 3 Sabbaths being the 1st day the 8th day and because of the 8 day period there will be the weekly Sabbath within that 8 day period...> so that <...(t)hese feasts of Yahweh (not Jewish) read Lev 23:2 are Sabbaths and Lev 23 points this out by saying that these days are Sabbaths not meaning the weekly Sabbath but again could fall on the same day as the weekly sabbath but they don't more often than not.>

To be precise: <these feasts> were NOT <feasts of Yahweh> just as they were <not Jewish> but <read> in Leviticus 23 as quoted before, "37These are the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering, and a meat offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, everything upon his day: 38beside The Sabbath-OF-THE-LORD, and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your freewill (NOT MANDATORY) offerings, which ye give unto the LORD".

To be precise: <these feasts> are NOT Sabbaths and Leviticus 23 points this out by saying/reading that these days 'DEPENDED ON' THE FACT IT IS WRITTEN: "23And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 24Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the Seventh Month, in the first (day) of the month, SHALL BE THE SABBATH of (1) memorial [of creation and redemption], (2) by the blowing of the trumpets [on only the Seventh Day Sabbath], (3) holy convocation [ONLY the Seventh Day Sabbath was "holy"] 25wherein [only, again, The sabbath of the LORD] ye shall do NO SERVILE work in...38The Sabbath-OF-THE-LORD."

it - the first day of the seventh month - is also known as the fast as they afflicted themselves on that day by fasting. This is referred to by Paul in Acts 27:9.

A DISGRACE!

Acts 27

9Now when much time (of the year) was spent,
9 Ἱκανοῦ δὲ χρόνου διαγενομένου

and when sailing was now dangerous,
καὶ ὄντος ἤδη ἐπισφαλοῦς τοῦ πλοὸς

because the FALL was now already past,
διὰ τὸ καὶ τὴν νηστείαν ἤδη παρεληλυθέναι,

Paul admonished / warned them…
παρῄνει ὁ Παῦλος…

12And because the haven was not commodious
12 ἀνευθέτου δὲ τοῦ λιμένος ὑπάρχοντος

for to winter in,
πρὸς παραχειμασίαν οἱ πλείονες

the majority of them advised to depart thence also
ἔθεντο βουλὴν ἀναχθῆναι ἐκεῖθεν

if by any means because of Fall fast approaching end,
εἴ πως δύναιντο καταντήσαντες,

they might keep sailing as far as Phenice an (safe) haven of Crete.
εἰς Φοίνικα παραχειμάσαι λιμένα τῆς Κρήτης.

FURTHER COMMENT SUPERFLUOUS!

A joke in bad taste! Yom Kippur is about nothing but EATING AND DRINKING! Just check the internet.
And it is all about how disrespectful their eating and drinking can be - where the Torah forbids any bones of the passover sacrifice shall be broken, severed or cut off or through, whichever bone the Jews choose, they cook in water which also, the Torah forbids. No joke - it's scandalous, in fact blasphemous! And above all they have the audacity to call it "the fast of Yom Kippur"! UNBELIEVABLE! BUT THE ZENITH OF THIS INSANITY IS THAT CHRISTIANS ARE ITS OBSERVERS.

The feast of Yahweh in Leviticus 23 are known as High Sabbath days.

NO <feast of Yahweh in Leviticus 23> is recorded there, that there, was <known as High Sabbath day(s)>. The ONLY incidence in ALL Scripture of a real feast of OT times, the feast of unleavened bread in this case, its "first day", "on the fifteenth day of the First Month" Exodus 12:14 and Leviticus 23:15, is WRITTEN, that "That Day was Great / High Day-of-sabbath-of-(the passover)", and is found in the NEW Testament, in John 19:31 - nowhere else in Scripture - Holy Scripture.

Yom Kippurim (Day of Atonements) as there were more than one atonement taking place.
What do you mean by <atonement>? Because the "at-one-ment" attempted on the 10th day of the Seventh Month was SPIRITUAL NOT SACRIFICIAL "affliction of SOUL" NOT of blood, and attempted for "making / working / attaining RECONCILIATION" between the ORDERLY TO TRIBE ASSEMBLED TOGETHER CHILDREN OF ISRAEL tribe by tribe, for exactly 24 hours duration "from sunsetting the 9th to sunsetting the 10th day of the Seventh Month". A matter of LITERALLY SOCIOLOGICAL AND PSYCOLOGICAL NATIONAL interaction and relation, most strenuous human effort, fruitless and useless for the purpose of forgiveness of sin and sinfulness against or in relation to the Almighty GOD personally. That's why the 10th day in the Seventh Month always fell on the Second Day of the week so that it never could be confused with the Sabbath or Sabbaths of Yahweh the Seventh Day of the week. But the Jews knew better than the LORD of the Sabbath of course.

Known as the holiest day in the Hebrew Calendar
The OT Holy Books only contain <the Hebrew Calendar> which is "ruled" not according to the years or seasons or months or days but according to GOD through his creating and eternal 'salvific calendar' "through the Son in these last days". The vista one gets through the Bible over whole the creation and history, begins at and stretches from the Most Holy Presence of God in Full Fellowship of Father, Son and Holy Spirit in the temple of Christ's Resurrection grave.

Called a Sabbath Sabaton, no work is to be done.
Lev. 23:28-32 NKJ
28 "And you shall do no work on that same day, for it is the Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before the LORD your God.
29 "For any person who is not afflicted in soul on that same day shall be cut off from his people.
30 "And any person who does any work on that same day, that person I will destroy from among his people.
31 "You shall do no manner of work; it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
32 "It shall be to you a sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict your souls; on the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you shall celebrate your sabbath."
When is no work done? On Sabbath days both weekly and Yahweh's feast days.

Re: <Called a Sabbath Sabaton, no work is to be done.> This is true as also the very opposite truth. It requires utter human effort, endeavour, WORK, to DO : no work! There is no such thing as do no work; to do no work is the work of doing no work. And man is of his works, most proud of THIS one, his work he is most successful with in working. But the moment man's success has to catch up with or meet GOD'S standard of obedience with regard to ANY Command of God, man's greatest achievements are reduced to man's biggest failures, which exactly was and still is and always will be so. Yom Kippur has always, proved itself the outstanding precedent and example of religious man's audacities.

In Leviticus 23:11, the

UNMARKED הָשַׁבַת –“the rest”

Abstract Verbal Noun,

MARKED הַשַּׁבָּ֔ת –“the Sabbath”

Concrete Definite Noun,

equals “adding”: the
