This was the Day of Expiation (Lev. 23:27).

According to their dispensational fulfillment, the seven annual feasts are related to the enjoyment of Christ by God’s people for the fulfillment of God’s eternal economy (see note Lev. 23:44¹). The more God’s people enjoy Christ and experience Christ, the more they fulfill God’s economy, and the more they are able to offer Christ to God as food. Thus, Christ is God’s food in the way of fulfilling God’s eternal economy. In Num. chs. 28—29 there are three sections: the section pertaining to the daily life of God’s people (see note Num. 28:2^1a), the section pertaining to the church (from the Feast of Passover to the Feast of Pentecost, i.e., Weeks), and the section pertaining to the future of Israel (from the Feast of the Blowing of Trumpets to the Feast of Tabernacles). Each section is for the fulfillment of God’s eternal economy. Because Christ is everything for the fulfillment of God’s economy, in each section He is God’s food, God’s satisfaction, served to God by His people and enjoyed with God by them. For eternity Christ will be God’s satisfaction, and for eternity we will enjoy the Christ who satisfies God.
