Deuteronomy 16:1-17 -

EXPOSITION

CELEBRATION OF THE PASSOVER FESTIVAL , THE FEAST OF PENTECOST AND OF TABERNACLES . APPOINTMENT OF OFFICERS FOR THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE AND PREVENTION OF IDOLATRY .

(Comp. Exodus 23:14-19 ; Exodus 34:18 , Exodus 34:22-26 ; Leviticus 23:1-44 . On the Passover, see Exodus 12:1-51 .; Exodus 13:3-10 .) The other great festivals of the Israelites, the Feast of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement, are not here referred to, because on these no assembling of the whole people at the sanctuary was required, and such assembling is the point of view under which the feasts are mainly regarded here.
