Feasts of Joy

Name Date

Read the Story

God gave His people three big feasts each year. At Passover they ate flat bread with no yeast. It helped them remember how fast they left Egypt.

Seven weeks after the grain harvest began, they had another feast. Everyone came to be glad before God. Sons, daughters, servants, widows, and people far from home were all invited.

After the grapes were gathered, they had a feast for seven days. They gave gifts as God had blessed them. God also said, Judges must be fair. They must not take money to judge wrongly.

Memory Verse

“You shall keep a feast to Yahweh your God seven days in the place which Yahweh chooses, because Yahweh your God will bless you in all your increase and in all the work of your hands, and you shall be altogether joyful.”

Deuteronomy 16:15 (WEB)
