Course Description

  • The focus of this important course is on the biblical feasts and fasts of Israel that are observed on a yearly basis. 
  • We begin with the historical background, function, and order of the Jewish calendar. Next we move onto the foundational matters pertaining to the offerings and holy days in Leviticus 23. 
  • Then we will explore each of the biblical holy days, one-by-one, explaining: (a) how they were to be celebrated in accordance with the Mosaic Law, (b) how Rabbinic Judaism observes them, (c) the Messianic implications of each feast and fast, and (d) how they have been or will be fulfilled in the Messianic program.
  • We will also study the post-Mosiac feasts of Israel, Purim and Chanukah, as well as Rosh Chodesh and Tisha B'Av.
  • In addition to the Ariel textbook, students will be reading material from several other excellent books; these books and articles are listed on the course syallabus which students gain access to after they purchase the course (Tiers 1-3).
