Hence some Old Testament festival days should be commemorated, such as the following: a) The rededication of the Temple by the Machabees (Hanukkah), also known as the Feast of Lights. It is commemorated in the 12th month. The temple of Jerusalem had been desecrated but not destroyed by the Seleucid ruler Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 167 BC. After the success of the Machabean revolt, the Machabees cleansed and rededicated the Temple and the Altar in 164 BC, and mandated an annual 8-day celebration to commemorate this joyful event. (1 Mac. 4:36-59) *b) The victory of Queen Esther over Aman and his decree against the Jews living in the Persian Empire (Purim). It is commemorated in 2nd or 3rd month. (the Book of Esther)* c) Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkoth), which should replace the secular feast day of Thanksgiving. It is commemorated in the 9th or 10th month. The older Ingathering or Fruit-Harvest festival became a commemoration of the 40 years that the Hebrews wandered in the desert, living in temporary shelters like tents or booths. (Lev 23:33-36, 39-43; Deut 16:13-15) d) The Passover meal is already on the calendar and celebrated on Maundy Day. It is commemorated in the 3rd or 4th month, the day before Good Sixth Weekday when Christ died for our sins.
