All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
Paul is referring to the entirety of the Old Testament. Certainly, we can extend this truth to the New Testament, but specifically, Paul has the Hebrew Scriptures in mind because all they had was the Torah.
Every part of the Bible is useful to us in the process of growing to spiritual maturity. This would include the Jewish holidays. Paul did not suggest that we must keep these festivals in any particular way, nor did he suggest that we are under obligation to keep them! Rather, he told us that every verse in every one of the thirty-nine books of the Old Testament is helpful and may be utilized for spiritual benefit. This would be true of the festivals outlined in Leviticus 23 and that includes the three fall events: The New Year (Feast of Trumpets), the Day of Atonement, and Tabernacles.
The High Holy Days!!!
The Year of the Overflow!!!
Sow Anyhow!!
“Let us seize and hold tightly the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is reliable and trustworthy and faithful [to His word]; and let us consider [thoughtfully] how we may encourage one another to love and to do good deeds, not forsaking our meeting together [as believers for worship and instruction], as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more [faithfully] as you see the day [of Christ’s return] approaching.”
