About 1500 years before Jesus came to earth, God gave the Jewish people seven feasts which mapped out his timetable for the world.
God told the people these feasts were 'rehearsals' of his plans (Leviticus 23).
The feasts can be divided in two groups, spring and fall. The spring feasts happen three days in a row.
They are; the Feast of Passover, Unleavened Bread and First-fruits.
