The Eighth Day

The Weekend Bible Study - with Ronald L. Dart

One of the most exciting discoveries in my life was when I learned that the festivals of the Bible actually contained an outline of God’s plan—an outline much more complex than I had at first imagined. They are loaded with illustrations, with analogies, with symbols and types of the plan of salvation, the life and work of Jesus Christ, of end-time events culminating in the Kingdom of God...and even events beyond the end of this world.

But there is a curious anomaly in this festival that we observe here today, and at least a couple of different angles on trying to understand it. There are theories that have been advanced through the years that we have observed it, and we need to talk about it.
