Bible Comments

trumpets

The feast of Trumpets, (Leviticus 23:23-25). This feast is a prophetical type and refers to the future regathering of long-dispersed Israel. A long interval elapses between Pentecost and Trumpets, answering to the long period occupied in the pentecostal work of the Holy Spirit in the present dispensation. Study carefully; (Isaiah 18:3); (Isaiah 27:13) (with contexts); (Isaiah 58:1-14) (entire chapter), and; (Joel 2:1-3); (Joel 2:21); in connection with the "trumpets," and it will be seen that these trumpets, always symbols of testimony, are connected with the regathering and repentance of Israel after the church, or pentecostal period is ended. This feast is immediately followed by the day of atonement.

seventh month

That is, October; also (Leviticus 23:27); (Leviticus 23:34); (Leviticus 23:39); (Leviticus 23:41).
