The fall Jewish holidays, known as “The Days of Awe” or the “High Holy Days” are significant to Jews and to Christians and include “Rosh Hashanah” or “The Feast of Trumpets,” “Sukkot” or “The Feast of Tabernacles,” and “Yom Kippur” or the “Day of Atonement.”

No other Feast in the Jewish calendar more clearly anticipates the future, complete atonement of Israel’s Messiah – the One the New Testament identifies as Jesus the Christ. No other Old Testament sacrifice so clearly points to the superiority and finality of Christ’s atoning work on the cross. On Yom Kippur, all mankind can rejoice that Jesus is the bridge that makes us AT ONE with God.
