Now, if you look back to verse 14, there are two words that further underscore the real object of this and every feast. The pre-incarnate Christ says, “you shall keep a feast to Me . . ..” The feast is not a celebration of what we do, but a memorial of what He has done and continues to do, without which we couldn’t do anything of spiritual significance. Jesus Christ really is the object of the holy days, just as He is the object of all the offerings. In John 5:46, Jesus says that Moses wrote about Him. The instructions all point to Him in some way.
