Bible Verse Review

the feasts: Leviticus 23:2, Leviticus 23:4, Deuteronomy 16:16, Deuteronomy 16:17

every thing: Ecclesiastes 3:1

Reciprocal: Exodus 32:5 - made proclamation

Gill's Notes on the Bible

These [are] the feasts of the Lord,.... Besides the sabbath, as Gersom observes; even the passover, the seven days of unleavened bread the day of Pentecost, the day of blowing the trumpets, the day of atonement, and the seven days of the feast of tabernacles;

which ye shall proclaim [to be] holy convocations: as they had been directed, Leviticus 23:2;

to offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord; which is explained by

a burnt offering, and a meat offering, which went along with it;

a sacrifice, which the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan call the sacrifice of holy things; according to Gersom it was the sacrifice of the peace offerings; but rather it seems to be the sacrifice of the sin offering, which was ordered along with the rest in all those feasts:

and drink offerings; which also accompanied the meat offerings:

everything upon his day; there being different sacrifices on one day than on another, everyone was to be offered peculiar to the day as was ordered; of which see Numbers 28:29.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The meaning appears to be; “these are the yearly appointed times on which ye shall hold holy convocations and offer to Yahweh sacrifices, in addition to the Sabbath offerings Numbers 28:9-10 and to all your voluntary offerings.” Compare Numbers 29:39.
