Elle makes that point that the Feast of Trumpets (not the seven trumpets) is a one day feast, which is correct. Since that is the case, this Feast is not a good parallel or type of the seven trumpets. It is a good candidate for being one of the seven trumpets, the final one, but not for being the fulfillment of all seven of the seven trumpets.
I haven't read this thread entirely. Did Karen bring the point that in the TYPE they blew the trumpet on the first day of the Feasts month -- in total that makes 7 trumpets. That's the relation I see with the TYPE and Revelation. The 7th trumpet being the last one to sound.
So I agree with Karen, that the Feast of Trumpet is the 7th trumpet sounded in a Feast yearly cycle. I don't agree with Karen that the feast of Trumpet was a 10 day celebration. That's not biblical. Yes I agree that there's 10 days before the Day of Atonement, but that is the time in between the two Feasts.
Also, there were different types of trumpets. Is the trumpet blown at the Jubilee time the same as the trumpets blown at the beginning of each months? Let's check that by looking at the Hebrew words of these trumpets words by which would reveal more information.
If we want to understand the seven trumpets, (and we all see thought a glass darkly when it comes to unfulfilled prophecy) the siege and destruction of Jericho is the closest match in scripture. There you have the seven days with seven trumpet blasts and the loudest blast that brought down the walls on the seventh day - a close parallel to the seventh trumpet that announces the end of Babylon and the beginning of the reign of Christ.
I agree.
The timing and circumstances of the conquest should be considered as well. Israel had just crossed the Jordan and began to possess the land. The men had just been circumcised. The first Passover in the Promised Land had just been celebrated. The counting of the Jubilee had just begun, year 1 of the first Jubilee cycle. It was in the spring, and the conquest began either during Unleavened Bread for seven days or right after it. I'm still studying it.
Compare the two (the 1st and the 2nd) point of entrance to Canaan. They are different in time :
--the 1st at the 50th Jubilee from Adam(2450) :
....(+) on a appointed time TYPE
....(+) on the 50th Jubilee cycle
....(+) on the 49th year of that Jubilee cycle
....(+) on the correct Feast(Month) Time.
--the 2nd at the 50th Jubilee + 38 years(2488) :
....(-) NOT on the appointed time TYPE
....(-) Not on the 49th year on the next Creation Jubilee cycle
....(-) Not on the correct Feast(Month) Time. They entered on Passover as Mark has noted.
--
Do notice that the Creation Jubilee calendar and their time starting the Feasts in the promise land is OFF by 11(or 12?) years. Another difference between the two worth mentioning right now, is the point(location) of entrance to Canaan.
--the 1st would of been on dry land which represents -- Israel wouldn't of had to die before entering the "final"(well as a type) destination.
--the 2nd was via the Jordan River which represents baptism/death. And yes it was on Passover on top of it which represents death and baptism. This also reflects the spiritual level of faith(maturity) of the Church in the Wilderness of that TIME. They were only babes with a Passover level of faith just being conceived by the Spirit. They refused(couldn't) enter Pentecost 50 days after being baptized in the Red sea. The Pentecost level of faith was only entered by the Corporate Church over 2000 years after. and most definetly they didn't have the faith for entering the promise land on the first appointed time.
So since there's two different starting point of Jubilee calendars which one do you think is the one the Lord is using to bring the anti-type to fulfillment? And do you think he's going to fix the gap between the two Jubilee calendars?
