C.) told them that the Lord God wanted them to observe the day as the day of solemon rest, a holy convocation and to celebrate with blowing and blast of trumpet. (Lev. 23: 23-24). It was to be celebrated in the month Tishri on the first day of it; it was the day of Hebrews' new year. The celebration was to emiund them they have to be reminded of the steadfast love of God for them and for their forefathers.
