Leviticus 23 describes a number of sacred events in Israel’s calendar. It declares each of these three days holy and determines whether it represents an occasion for partial or total rest. Read chapter 23 carefully and note which days are for partial and which days are for total rest.
- In your workbook fill in the chart with which days are for partial and which days are for total rest.
| Kind of Rest | Sacred Occasion | Proclamation of Holiness |
| Weekly Sabbath | Lev 23:3 | |
| Unleavened Bread, day 1 | Lev 23:7 | |
| Unleavened Bread, day 7 | Lev 23:8 | |
| Festival of Weeks | Lev 23:21 | |
| Trumpets | Lev 23:24 | |
| Day of Purgation | Lev 23:27 | |
| Festival of Booths, day 1 | Lev 23:35 | |
| Festival of Booths, day 7 | Lev 23:36 |
You will have noticed the distinction between any work and regular work. The restriction against any work means a total stoppage of all labor, heavy or light. The restriction against regular work refers to manual labor, and allows for light tasks like food preparation. In both cases the emphasis on rest during sacred occasions is clear.
