Like Israel, this fellowship with Him is only possible through the Priest (Jesus) and with a spotless sacrifice (also Jesus) (Jn 4:6).Lv 20: Because there was no offering for his sin, David cried out, ‘Lord You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heart— These, O God, You will not despise’ (Ps 51:16-17).Lv 23: Fulfillment of the holy days and feasts- Jesus came as our Rest, fulfilling the Sabbath—Shabat (Heb 4:9-10). Jesus died as the Lamb, fulfilling the Passover—Pesach (1Cor 5:7). Jesus was buried without corruption, fulfilling the Feast of Unleavened Bread—Chag HaMatzot. Jesus is the first to rise from the dead, fulfilling the Feast of Firstfruits—Yom HaBikkurim (1Cor 15:20). The Holy Spirit came and filled the Church fifty days after the Feast of Firstfruits and Jesus’ resurrection, fulfilling the Feast of Pentecost (pente means fifty)—Shavuot (Ac 2:1-4). Christ’s return will fulfill the Feast of Trumpets—Rosh Hashanah (1Cor 15:52). Israel will finally see their Messiah and respond with brokenness and mourning fulfilling the Day of Atonement—Yom Kippur (Zech 12:10-11).
