Fall Mo'edim - Teshuvah and Joy

The Fall Mo'edim -

Teshuvah and Redemption

Preparations for the Jewish Fall Holidays begin a full month in advance. On the Jewish calendar is a forty-day season called Teshuvah (return or repentance.) This season begins on Elul 1 and ends on the Day of Atonement. The ten days between Rosh Hashanah and the Yom Kippur are called the "Days of Awe" (i.e., aseret ye'mei teshuvah: עֲשֶׁרֶת יְמֵי תְּשׁוּבָה).

Prophetic Significance

The Fall Feasts reveal the second coming of Yeshua, the national conversion of Israel, God's original-covenant people, and, especially in Sukkot, the last of the Shelosh Regalim [three annual pilgrimage festivals], the final restoration of the earth in the olam habah [world to come]:

  1. Elul and Selichot - preparing for teshuvah
  2. Yamim Nora'im (Days of Awe):
  3. 3. Tabernacles (Sukkot) - A picture of the millennial kingdom [Tishri 15-20]
    1. Hoshana Rabbah - The seventh day of Sukkot [Tishri 21]
    2. Shemini Atzeret - The eighth day closure of Sukkot [Tishri 22]
    3. Simchat Torah - Celebration of the giving of the Torah [Tishri 23]
