Shadows of Messiah

16. So don’t let anyone pass judgment on you in connection with eating and drinking, or in regard to a Jewish festival or New Moon or Sabbath. 17. These are a foreshadowing of things to come, but the body is of the Messiah. - Colossians 2

Paul writes to the Colossians and explains to them that the food customs, festivals, feasts and sabbaths of the Jewish people are a foreshadowing of the Messiah. We will look into each one of the Lord's appointed times (Leviticus 23) - Sabbath, Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread, Feast of First Fruits, Feast of Weeks, Day of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, Feast of Tabernacles - to see how they each served to both commemorate the great work of God and also act as prophetic sign posts for His coming Messiah.
