The Biblical Feasts, Not Just Jewish Holidays

YHWH (Yahweh) commanded Believers to keep and celebrate His seven Festivals/Appointed Times: Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Weeks, Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and Tabernacles (Leviticus 23). Man has added some "traditional" celebrations such as Hanukkah which is preserved in the books of 1 Maccabees and 2 Maccabees; and Purim from the book of Esther, and more. Some of the more modern historical holidays include Israeli Independence Day, Holocaust
