Appointments With God Discussions Firstfruits Pentecost/Shavuot Shabbat Torah Unleavened Bread

‘Feasts to the LORD’; ‘the LORD spoke to…’ (Leviticus 23–24)

The 23rd chapter of Leviticus is a relatively obvious passage. The explanations are simple and self-explanatory, except for questions about the biblical timing of Firstfruits and Pentecost.

The 24th chapter is a bit unusual and not so simple to decipher. When you read the book of Leviticus and you find the phrase “the LORD spoke to…” pay attention to whom is supposed to hear the message. There were some messages for the sons of Aaron but some messages were for the people of Israel. Each group had their own duties and responsibilities, and it’s God Himself Who decides.
