INTERESTING - CHRIST STARTED HIS MINISTRY ON FEAST OF TABERNACLES

Only someone versed in Jewish traditions and festivals would have picked up on the subtleties of the wording in Luke - CLEARLY  a reference to Succoth/booths.  This was after He received the keys of the ministry AND after He could start the clock ticking down to the final event on the Feast of Firstfruits (of them that slept, per the Book of Mormon - on Resurrection morning).  In an analgous manner,  I wonder if Him coming to AoA to again receive the keys to ministry on the earth again (this time, in the Spring), followed by a 1260 day period ending at the fall Wedding Feast (where the Bridegroom comes), would be a nice fit.  Just conjecture - but most things have pattern:

8 days after the start of the Feast of Tabernacles is Shimini Atzeret.

The two witnesses are Elijah and Moses.

This is the only reference in the Bible that describes the two witness together which is during the Transfiguration of Jesus. It is thought that after the transfiguration, Jesus started his 3 1/2 year or 1260 day ministry before his death on Passover.

In Revelation 11, it describes the two witnesses prophesying for 1260 days just like Jesus.

(Luke 9:28-36)

"About eight days after Jesus said this, he took Peter, John and James with him and went up onto a mountain to pray. As he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning. Two men, Moses and Elijah, appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus. They spoke about his departure, which he was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem. Peter and his companions were very sleepy, but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men standing with him. As the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to him, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” While he was speaking, a cloud appeared and covered them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. A voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, whom I have chosen; listen to him.” When the voice had spoken, they found that Jesus was alone. "

It says above, "let us put up three shelters" That is a clue there that is shows it was during the time of the Feast of Tabernacles too!

"Sukkot & the Transfiguration
Tuesday night we read Matthew 17 and began a discussion of the Transfiguration. This week is the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles (or Booths), called Sukkot (meaning tabernacles or booths) in Hebrew terminology. Because of the timing, we spent our time talking about "the Feast," in part because of the strange comment by Peter on that "high mountain" when he saw Jesus, in transfigured glory, and Moses and Elijah talking together.

"Lord, it is good that we are here. If you wish, I will make three tents here, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah." (v. 5)"

Shimini Atzeret or the 8th day of the Feast of Tabernacles is Oct. 11th/12th this year!
