Num 29:39 THESE THINGS ye shall do unto the LORD in your set feasts, BESIDES your vows, and your freewill offerings, for your burnt offerings, and for your meat offerings, and for your drink offerings, and for your peace offerings. What are "THESE THINGS"?Num 29:1 And in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, ye shall have a holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work: it is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you. Num 29:2 And ye shall offer a burnt offering for a sweet savor unto the LORD; one young bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the first year without blemish: Num 29:3 And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram, Num 29:4 And one tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs: Num 29:5 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you: This is one of the sabbaths, and there are many sabbaths; yearly sabbaths, consequtive sabbaths, 70 year sabbaths, 50 year sabbaths, 8th day sabbaths, 9th day sabbaths, High Sabbaths, the list goes on and on:One cannot possibly keep the Sabbath unless they are doing "THESE THINGS".But one of the main features of the 7 day sabbaths, is that it is a rotating sabbath. In view of the rotating 7th day sabboth, we start at the month of Abib, THE START OF A NEW YEAR, then count 15 days, so right there 2X7 +1 day = 15, and THE HEBREW would now begin under a reschedule once again, which changes again.See if 7 even divides into 360 evenly. Some years they would remove a month, others they would add.The penalty for breaking this Sabbath law is death. Why did they want to kill the supreme example, Christ the Lord? Because He would not keep the Sabbath, and His disciples followed HIM. Why is it we see people that believe they keep the Sabbath, but don't do 'THESE THINGS', they do OTHER THINGS and FAIL to practice the penalty aspect. Was the penalty aspect ever rescinded?Why did God institute the weekly Sabbath to the Hebrew nation? Duet 4:15 (And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the Lord thy God commanded thee to keep the Sabbath day.) There are many many laws which must be kept in order to keep the sabbath, but the main feature is that it was given to Israel in the wilderness 2500 years after God created Adam, for the sole purpose of Israel's rememberance of their deliferance out of Egypt.Christ called Jerusalem 'spiritual Egypt', because they desired to keep the Sabbath.Luk 16:16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
