V.23-25 (5) The feast of trumpets. The Lord Jesus shall come back and, as it were, blow the trumpet and gather Israel from all over the earth. This will take place after the believers are taken to heaven. Write all these feasts onto your chart, with the Scriptures, and you will be greatly helped.

V.26-32 (6) Then the day of atonement, Lev. 16, When this day is fulfilled, Israel will confess the dreadful sin of having crucified their loving Messiah. (Read Zech. 12:9-14⁹And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. ¹⁰And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. ¹¹In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. ¹²And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart; ¹³The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart; ¹⁴All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart. (Zechariah 12:9‑14)).

V.33-44 Lastly, (7) the feast of Tabernacles will be fulfilled in the millennium. Israel will be reminded of all the wanderings in the wilderness of their forefathers. Many of the nations around Israel will join in the rejoicing and worship. (Read Zech. 14:16¹⁶And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. (Zechariah 14:16)).
