37 a‘These are the feasts of the Lord which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering and a grain offering, a sacrifice and drink offerings, everything on its day—  
38 abesides the Sabbaths of the Lord, besides your gifts, besides all your vows, and besides all your freewill offerings which you give to the Lord.  
39 ‘Also on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have agathered in the fruit of the land, you shall keep the feast of the Lord for seven days; on the first day there shall be a sabbath-rest, and on the eighth day a sabbath-rest.

Leviticus 23:33-39

So here we have it this day that we're keeping now. The Last Great Day is the eighth day of the Feast of Tabernacles. It is part of the Feast of Tabernacles, yet distinctive and different because he mentions that we keep the Feast of Tabernacles in verse 34 for seven days. And then, the eighth day is "tacked on" it seems at the end. It is the last great hurrah of God's feasts for the year.
