Judaism, or Esau the firstborn, with its central revelation at Sinai, was not God’s ultimate plan from before creation, what he had in mind. Judaism was transitional.

Christianity, with Pentecost its central revelation, the second born, was what he had in mind. We see this prophetically in Abel, Isaak, Jacob, which were second born. As Paul says, born of the spirit, the birthright, versus being born of the flesh.

Col. 2:16,17 says that the holy days instituted at Sinai, were but shadows of the true, i.e., the body of Christ. All fulfilled in Christianity.

Glad you mentioned Pentecost..

With study, one can see Christianity gets its ‘birthday’ wrong every year!
About 50 days wrong..
And its because they follow Rome and Judaism..

Christianity would understand in a new way why Jesus used 30/60/100 in the Parable of the Sower), if they followed the calendar He taught Israel..

And 30/60/100 has something to do with what happened to Israel while on the journey to and from Sinai.. What a blessing to see why He used those three folds to describe His Kingdom.. Can lead to even deeper meaning of scripture- maybe unlock more mysteries of the Kingdom..

But again, Judaism and Christianity dont count correctly and miss quite a lesson about His Kingdom..
A parable that scripture says is the central parable to understanding all parables (Mark 4:13)

Maybe Eve coming out of the sleeping body of the First Adam is prophetic -
A shadow of His Bride coming out of the Last Adam’s Body, which too will be sleeping..

We don’t know how much we still don’t know.. It begins by coming out..
But ‘out’ is uncomfortable and takes faith..
