As the title says, it is a "Family Guide"

If you are coming around to understanding the extrabiblical nature of the Roman feasts, you're probably looking for a way to wean your family off of those dialectical, pagan/Christian festivals. Perhaps your spouse isn't "on board" yet because you're both unsure of how to break it to the kids without leaving them feeling deprived. Or, maybe you're a "Sunday school" teacher looking for a way to teach your young pupils about the seven "Feasts of the Lord" from a Christian perspective. THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU! The book starts with a general calendar for the year and a simple, yet comprehensive, explanation of the calendar. Then, each feast is presented in order. At the head of each festival's chapter, a concise and well written explanation of the feast is given. These descriptive sections are well suited for the adult teacher and provide enough information to provide a solid basis for teaching. These sections are perhaps even suitable for students with a 5th grade reading comprehension level (about the age when most of the books activities will start to seem juvenile). The bulk of the rest of each festival's section is devoted to projects and games that are probably more geared for elementary-aged children. This is what makes it a "family guide." If you are looking for a more detailed exegesis of the Feasts of the Lord, there are other books and websites available. But, I think every family or teacher should have this one on hand.

BEST BOOK ON THE HOLY DAYS!

I almost didn't buy this book based a review saying it included Jewish traditions that were not Biblical. HOWEVER there were so many good reviews I did invest in it. What a great book! The author does give the Jewish traditions of each holidays but it is very clear which ones are Biblical and which are customs. The real focus of the book is how the Holy Days point to Christ! I was blessed by this book over and over. Very easy to understand chapters. Great background infromation on Hebrew roots. It also includes an 16 page Hagaddah you can copy for family use. I will use my book over and over--worth every cent!

An excellent guide

For those having limited experience with Jewish beliefs this is a wonderful way to really get started. It's all been researched and easily laid out so there is limited Prep time and and you can move on the holidays quickly and it's fun. I love being able to tie my family's beliefs back to where they began and teaching my children that our belief began with the God's chosen people and is as real and meaningful today. If you want to bring the origin of Christianty into your home to study and practise this is the book.

Great!

A Family Guide to the Biblical Holidays has been a great help to me. I taught a nine week course called the Forgotten Holidays using "A Family Guide to the Biblical Holidays"a great deal. In 1985 on how important the biblical holidays are to God. I researched the topic and started to attend a messianic jewishish synagoge to try to get more background on the holidays. In 1987 I wrote a master thesis on the subject. At that point in time it was so foriegn to most of my christian friends they looked at me like I was from outer space. It has been wonderful how the Lord has made the significance of the Levitical holidays a more acceptable topic. I found "A Family Guide to the Biblcial Holidays" easy to read, and the subject easy to teach with the help of this book.
