God's Prophetic Calendar

When God gave Moses the Torah he included the feasts that were to be both for remembering what he has done, but also looking forward to  the first and second comings of the Messiah. Here are the dates for the Biblical Feasts in 2025:
 

Note - the dates are based on a the Hebrew lunar calendar, not the Gregorian calendar now used by most of the world (hence some uncertainly below - we'll get those confirmed).

Spring Feasts

Passover - evening of 12 April 2025

This celebrates God's power over evil demonstrated at the Israelites' exodus from Egypt, but also looks to the coming of Jesus, our true passover lamb, as we celebrqte our own liberation from slavery to sin.

Unleavened Bread - 13–19 April 2025

Initially remembering the haste with which the Israelites left Egypt, this is a time to focus on the fact that Jesus removes our sin so we live in the light of that.

First Fruits - 14/20  April 2025

Whilst this is a celebration of the first harvest, it's thought by many to be the day on which Jesus defeated death; he being the firstfruits of all who would believe and be saved.

Pentecost (Shavuot) - 2/8 June 2025

This was a celebration of the giving of the law to Moses and later, the coming of the Holy Spirit to dwell in us.

Autumn Feasts

Day of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) - 23 September 2025

The day on which Israelite Kings were crowned, it's a day of noisy celebrations, looking forward to the last trumpet marking return of Jesus, the King of kings.

Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - 2 October 2025

The day on which the priests would perform the annual sacrifice to make atonement for the people, but now a celebration of the fact that Jesus has made atonement on our behalf, once for all.

Feast of Booths, or Tabernacles (Sukkot) - 7–14 October, 2025

This is a commemoration of the Israeiltes 40 years wandering in the wilderness, living in tents. It also celebrates God's dwelling with mankind in the Tabernacle, in the Temple, in human form as Jesus the Messiah and ultimately looks forward to us leaving our temorary dwelling here on earth and living with God in the new heavens and earth.

Other celebrations

These are not feasts that were prescribed by God, but many people mark them as without the events they commemorate, it would not have been possible for the prophecies regarding the coming of the Messiah, Jesus, to be filfilled. 

Purim - March 14, 2025

This marks the salvation of the Israelites from the hand of Haman in the Persian Empire. 

Hanukkah - 15–22 December 2025

This Festival of Lights celebrates the dedication and the reinstatement of worship in the temple in Jerusalem following the overthrow of Seleucids.
