The following scriptures tell us the Sabbath, the 7 feasts of YHVH, the sounding of the shofar, the reading of the Torah and the gathering of the body in the synagogue are things that we are to be rehearsing here on earth as statutes forever - la' olam vayed...
The fulfillment of them, of course, will be in glory when we will love, serve and worship Yhvh face to face, but for now, they are "Qodesh Miqra" - sacred rehearsals to be practicing day by day and week by week until Messiah's imminent return!
The spring feasts, or set times of Yhvh = "moadim" are:
Passover/Pesach is the picture of Messiah as the Lamb of Yhvh who was slain/crucified for the sins of the world...
Unleavened Bread/Chag HaMotzi is the picture of Messiah as He was buried in the tomb for 3 days...
Firstfruits/Yom Habikkurim is the picture of Messiah as the resurrected first born of YHVH...
Pentecost/Shavu'ot is the picure of Messiah sending us the Holy Spirit - the Ruach Hakodesh!
The fall feasts of Yhvh are: Trumpets/Rosh Hashana/Yom Teru'ah; Day of Atonement/Yom Kippur; and Tabernacles/Sukkot.
