Summary of reasons why the Rapture will occur during Rosh Hashanah
(The Jewish Feast of Trumpets).  Sourced from Jason Hommel!



1.  All the Spring Feasts were fulfilled at Christ's first coming (and on the exact day of the feast!).  The Fall Feasts portray the Second Advent, and Rosh Hashanah is the first of the Fall Feasts, typifying the Rapture.

2.  Rosh Hashanah is when the Rapture's "Last Trump" is blown (51Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed." 1 Cor. 15:51-53).

3.  Rosh Hashanah is known as the Wedding of the Messiah, and the Church is the Bride of Christ!  The Rapture is when the Church is caught up to heaven to be wed with Christ!

4.  Rosh Hashanah takes place at the "New moon," which is 29.5 days after the previous moon...meaning it could occur on the 29th or 30th day, respectively, nobody knows for sure. "Of that day or hour no man knows" is an expression referring to this phenomenon and Rosh Hashanah (and thus, the Rapture!).

5.  "Of that day or hour no man knows, but my Father only" is an expression used by a groom when asked when his wedding will be.  He says this because it is his Father who will tell him when preparations on the bridal chamber are completed.  Again, the wedding exemplifies the Rapture.

6.  The "Open Door" of the Rapture in Matt 25, Rev. 3 and  Rev. 4:1 is a symbol of  Rosh Hashanah.  ..."Thus says the Lord GOD: The gate of the inner court that faces east shall be shut on the six working days; but on the sabbath day it shall be opened and on the day of the new moon (see below) it shall be opened." (Ezekiel 46:1).

7.  We are told that the new moon and the Feasts of the Lord are a Shadow of things (the Rapture) to come (Col. 2:16,17); and Rosh Hashanah is the only Feast of the Lord that falls on a new moon!

8.  There are seven days of awe in between Rosh Hashanah and the Day of Atonement.  These typify the seven years of the Tribulation. 

9.  In the Jewish Wedding, a marriage takes place over a period of time known as the "Bridal week".  During the bridal week, the groom and bride commune in the bridal chamber.  At the end of the week, there is a marriage supper.  (Compare Judges 14, Rev. 19, and Genesis 29:22-28).  This bridal week will be the Tribulation week (7 years) on earth, while the bride of Christ is in heaven.
    
10. In the Jewish Wedding, the groom comes for his bride "like a thief in the night" to take (...Rapture) her away to the Bridal Chamber for the bridal week at his father's house.
