“had apparently already been introduced to Israel”

Apparently? Really?

The Sabbath was a creation ordinance and is universal. The thing that changed from old covenant to new was the day, from the last day of the week (relating to the first Adam) to the first day of the week (relating to the second Adam).

The other festivals and feast days all had to do with the covenant God made with Israel in the wilderness from Egypt to Sinai. They were all bloody and they have all passed away.

You nailed it.

I don’t think so.

This is simply not true. The Feast days were in existence prior to Sinai as Douglas has indicated by his scripture references. As indicated in my previous post I believe they also proceeded the captivity itself. Irregardless....the Feast Days had nothing to do with the Old Covenant.

If they have all passed away why do you suppose God would be having the Nations all celebrating Tabernacles during the Millennium [Zechariah 14:16-19]? Wouldn't that be somewhat redundant?

Can you tell us all when they were abolished. Is there a record in the new scriptures?

This is true...but only if one elevates tradition over scripture. Biblically, and thus authoritatively, the 7th day sabbath is, was and always will be the sabbath of the Lord Jesus Christ. It's enshrined in the 10 commandments:

Exo 20:8 "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Exo 20:9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
Exo 20:10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates.
Exo 20:11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

The other festivals and feast days all had to do with the covenant God made with Israel in the wilderness from Egypt to Sinai.

As seen in earlier posts these feast days ARE the property of the Lord Jesus Christ and exist independently of any covenant relationship. They were all bloody and they have all passed away.
