Customer Reviews

Mitch and his wife are amazing and this book amazed me.

As a Gentile Believer, I was blown away by how Yeshua the Messiah fulfilled all of the Spring Feasts at his first coming, and will fulfill all the the Fall Feasts at his second coming. I have had the great honor of meeting Mitch and his wonderful wife Zahava at a conference at Moody on this topic that he ran, spoke at, and organized through his organization Chosen People Ministries. Mitch is one of the hardest working and most genuine, loving, and humble Believers I've ever met. I highly recommend this book and his book: Isaiah 53. RR

A Resource for Understanding the Fall Feasts

THE FALL FEASTS OF ISRAEL fulfills the purpose stated on page 18 of the book- "understanding the fall festivals will enrich the lives and walks of believers in Christ." As a messianic believer, I learned a lot from this book. The authors emphasize that the fall feasts were not exclusively for the Jewish people. Each of the fall feasts was detailed from: the Biblical institution, Jewish traditions and customs, how they were observed in the time of Christ(Yahushua), as well as how they were observed in Biblical times. I found the summation of what each feast represented to be educational. I haven't previously thought of how they connected; repentance- redemption- rejoicing. The authors explain why some call the first fall feast Rosh Hashanah while others call it Yom Teruah. The views of Judaism on the subjects of death and the afterlife were very interesting. These authors go into more detail on circumstances regarding the usage of the Name during Yom Kippur ceremonies. They also list the "four ominous events" that occurred during the forty years prior to the destruction of the temple in 70AD. How that loss of the temple has changed some of the customs. Some of the differing views in Judaism itself are discussed. I appreciate that they quote from the works of Alfred Edersheim, one of my favorite writers. I also found the Glossary of Terms and the many Indexes at the end of the book to be helpful. This book is a beneficial resource for the study of the fall festivals. I appreciated learning some of the Jewish customs throughout history. An excellent book that I highly recommend. If you want to study all the Feasts of Israel I would recommend ISRAEL'S FEASTS AND THEIR FULLNESS by Batya Ruth Wootten.
