To my knowledge.. The Jewish Festvals as documented in the Old Testament are a foreshadowing of the timeline of the kingdom of Messiah. e.g The feast of tabernacles is the last when He tabernacles with us at His second coming. The Feast of Trumpets are when the last trump. the Trauah Gadola is the last trump when the dead in Messiah will be summoned from the grave.

The Jewish Festivals in the Old Testament picture God's master plan of redemption. It is not only a timeline of Christ work in the past but of the future as well. The Passover foreshadowed the death of Christ. The feast of unleavened bread pictures the putting away of sin. The feast of weeks or the Pentecost pictures the outpouring of God's Holy Spirit. The feast of trumpets pictures the return of Jesus Christ and the first Ressurection. The day of atonement pictures our reconciliation with God and the sin and guilt being laid back to satan. The feast of tabernacles pictures the life of Christians in the millennium and the great last day pictures the great white throne judgment.
