f the Passover; 2d, Feast of Weeks;
3d, Feast of Tabernacles.

_First feast_ was the crucifixion of our Lord at the Passover, on the 14th
day of the first month, at 3 o'clock P. M.; the very day and hour the lamb
was offered in the type for sixteen hundred and seventy years.

_Second feast_--the day of Pentecost, 1670 years from the time that the
commandments were uttered by the voice of God, in the morning.--Exo. xix:
16; see Acts ii: 15, undoubtedly at the same hour. Now as these two feasts
are perfectly fulfilled, we have nothing further to do with them here;
only to say, that God never taught any other way to find the fulfillment
of these two most important events, than by their typical observance.

_Third feast_--on the 15th of the seventh month; the feast of the
Tabernacles. This undoubtedly represents the gathering of all Israel at
the coming of Christ; the ingathering of the harvest; the end of the 6000
years: the end of the world. I see no other point of time for Christ to
come than at the feast; see Deut. xvi: 1-16: Lev. xxiii; Num. xxviii, and
xxix. It cannot be possible that God has been so exact in the fulfillment
of the first two, to the very hour of the day, and then left the other
without _order or time_! No, no! Here is the gathering of all Israel; see
Lev. xxiii: 39-44. Now, this being true, all of the other events which
precede this in this chapter, must, to harmonize with the types, be
fulfilled first. Now there are three types in this feast; their harmony
and order are as follows: First,--24th verse is the memorial of trumpets.
This is the type of the sounding of the seventh trumpet; there is nothing
else for an anti-type--try and see. Than it is fulfilled, by Rev. x: 7--"In
the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound,
the Mystery of God should be finished." &c. This then, we have shown,
sounded on the first day of the seventh month, 1844. Here the virgins were
divided, and the wise ones got ready for the coming of the Bridegroom to
the marriage. See _Way Marks_, 35 to 37th pages.

_Second type_--27th verse--"Also on the 10th day of the seventh month, there
shall be a day of atonement,--ye shall afflict your souls, for whatsoever
soul it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut
off from among his people." This, of course, was artificial; but it was a
type to represent the tried state which the virgins in the parable entered
into on the tenth day
