– In these one hundred blasts, the first of three categories are combined back and forth until there is a total of 99 sounds. Then comes the 100[SUP]th[/SUP], the Tekiah Gedolah, a very long-sustained note – as long as the trumpeter had breath to hold it,
and this is known as “the last trump.” That will become very significant when the Messianic Implications of this particular festival are discussed.
Summary:
Notice the sequence of events that are fulfilled in the ministry of Yeshua when He came at the First Coming [spring feasts] and what we will see as the fall feasts that fulfill His Second Coming. Look at the sequence and progression of events:
1. The Feast of Passover was fulfilled by the death of the Messiah.
2. The Feast of Unleavened Bread was fulfilled by the righteous character and sinlessness of His blood-offering upon His death.
3. The Feast of First-Fruits was fulfilled by the Resurrection of the Messiah.
4. The Feast of Weeks was fulfilled by the birthday of the Church.
Following the first cycle of feasts [spring feasts] came a four month interval separating the first cycle of feasts from the second cycle of feasts. This four month interval is fulfilled by the Church Age. God’s program for the Church interrupts His program for Israel as revealed in the program of the festivals.
All of the Spring Feasts occurred in a little over 50 days and now the Fall Feasts will occur within a two-week period to fulfill His program for Israel in the Second Coming pictured in the Fall Feasts.
5. The Feast of Trumpets will be fulfilled by the Rapture of the Church.
6. The Day of Atonement will be fulfilled by the Great Tribulation with Israel’s national salvation at the end of that period.
7. The Feast of Tabernacles will be fulfilled by the establishment of the Messianic Kingdom.
