Study Question Relevance
sanc-12-seven-feasts "What are the seven appointed feasts (mo'adim) of Leviticus 23, and do they form a unified prophetic calendar?" Direct predecessor -- establishes the full feast calendar; spring feast fulfillment is the entry point to the broader system
sanc-03-sanctuary-furniture "What does each piece of sanctuary furniture typify?" Bronze altar = Christ's sacrifice; Passover lamb connects to altar typology
sanc-05-sacrifice-types "What are the major sacrifice types?" Passover as sacrifice type; chattat/hamartia double meaning; olah ascending offering

Key Findings from Related Studies:

From sanc-12-seven-feasts/CONCLUSION.md: - The seven feasts form a unified prophetic calendar; Hebrew mo'adei YHWH (H4150) establishes divine ownership of the calendar - Spring feasts fulfilled on exact calendar dates: Passover (Nisan 14) = crucifixion; Firstfruits (day after Sabbath) = resurrection; Pentecost (50 days later) = Spirit outpouring - Paul declares "Christ our passover is sacrificed for us" (1 Cor 5:7); Greek etythe (aorist passive of thyo) = definitive Passover sacrifice - 1 Cor 5:7-8 transition from Passover (etythe, aorist = one-time sacrifice) to Unleavened Bread (heortazomen, present subjunctive = ongoing observance) mirrors type-to-antitype shift - Christ as firstfruits: perfect passive egegertai ("has been raised and remains raised," 1 Cor 15:20); the wave sheaf lirtsonekhem ("for your acceptance," Lev 23:11) - Acts 2:1 symplērousthai carries nuance of prophetic fulfillment, not merely calendar arrival - Pentecost leavened loaves (Lev 23:17) = imperfect people (sinners) accepted by God through Spirit's work; possibly Jews and Gentiles - Col 2:16-17 shadow/body (skia/soma) framework; present participle mellonton = things still coming - Heb 10:1 gradation: shadow (skia) -> image (eikon) -> reality - Four-month gap between Pentecost and Trumpets = church age / inter-advent period; Lev 23:22 gleaning law for "stranger" at this structural gap = Gentile inclusion - Fall feasts: Trumpets -> second coming (salpinx/teru'ah LXX bridge); DOA -> judgment (Dan 8:14; Heb 9:24-28); Tabernacles -> eternal ingathering (Rev 7:9-17; 21:3) - If spring feasts fulfilled on exact dates, pattern demands fall feasts have corresponding prophetic fulfillments - Limitation noted: Fall feast connections are thematic, not explicit like spring feast identifications

From sanc-03-sanctuary-furniture/CONCLUSION.md: - Bronze altar (mizbeach) = "place of slaughter" = Christ's substitutionary sacrifice; first furniture, mandatory prerequisite - Lev 17:11 foundational: "the life of the flesh is in the blood... I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement" - The kapporeth/hilasterion LXX bridge (H3727 -> G2435) identifies Christ as the mercy seat itself (Rom 3:25) - Each piece of furniture teaches a distinct aspect of Christ's work: altar (death) -> laver (cleansing) -> lampstand (light) -> showbread (sustenance) -> incense (prayer) -> mercy seat (mercy) - The Passover lamb sacrifice connects directly to the bronze altar typology

From sanc-05-sacrifice-types/CONCLUSION.md: - Five Levitical offerings are non-redundant; each addresses a distinct dimension of divine-human relationship - The burnt offering (olah) = total consecration; fulfilled by Christ in Eph 5:2 ("sweetsmelling savour" = re'ach nichoach) - The sin offering (chattat/hamartia) double meaning: same word = "sin" AND "sin offering"; 2 Cor 5:21 replicates this wordplay - Isaiah 53:10 uses asham (guilt offering), NOT chattat -- Christ restores MORE than what sin destroyed - Heb 13:11-12: blood inside sanctuary -> body burned outside camp = Christ suffered "without the gate" - 1 Cor 5:7 explicitly identifies Christ as the Paschal lamb (the Passover sacrifice type) - The system was always designed to be temporary; its repetition testified to incompleteness (Heb 10:1-3) - Heb 10:5-8 names four sacrifice categories (thysia, prosphora, holokautoma, peri hamartias) and replaces all with "a body hast thou prepared me"

Focus Areas

  1. Passover Fulfillment -- Exact Calendar Match (Nisan 14): Tool discoveries surfaced EXO 12:3-49, JHN 18:28, 1CO 5:7, and the TYPES entry linking the Paschal lamb directly to Christ. The research agent should retrieve JHN 19:14-42 with full chapter context (especially the "preparation of the passover" timing language, G3904 paraskeue), EXO 12:1-28 (original institution), and 1CO 5:1-13 (full context of Paul's Passover declaration). Run greek_parser.py on JHN 19:14 and 1CO 5:7 to analyze the tense/voice of etythe and the significance of paraskeue. Run cross_testament_parallels_v2.py on 1CO 5:7 (both --hybrid-ot and --hybrid-nt).

  2. The Passover Lamb Correspondence -- Detail Matching: Nave's PASSOVER entry lists EXO 12:5,11,14 as typified in 1CO 5:7. The Lamb of God topic (JHN 1:29) uses amnos (G286). The research agent should trace the detail-by-detail correspondence: unblemished lamb (EXO 12:5 -> 1PE 1:19), blood applied for protection (EXO 12:13 -> ROM 3:25), unbroken bones (EXO 12:46 -> JHN 19:36), timing at twilight (EXO 12:6 -> MAT 27:45-50). Retrieve EXO 12:1-14 and JHN 19:31-37 with full context. Run search_strongs.py --lookup G286 and G721 to compare amnos vs arnion usage.

  3. Unleavened Bread as Sanctification Type (Nisan 15-21): The LEAVEN topic reveals systematic symbolism: forbidden with blood (EXO 23:18; 34:25), at Passover (EXO 12:19,20), with meat offerings (LEV 2:11) -- yet permitted with the wave-offering (LEV 23:15-17) and peace-offering (LEV 7:13). 1CO 5:6-8 makes the connection explicit. The research agent should retrieve 1CO 5:1-13 full chapter, LEV 23:4-8 (UB institution), and run cross-references for "purge out the old leaven" (1CO 5:7). Analyze how Christ's burial (JHN 19:38-42; MAT 27:57-66) during the feast of Unleavened Bread connects burial with sinlessness (2CO 5:21; HEB 4:15). Why does leaven prohibition during UB -> purification from sin?

  4. Firstfruits as Resurrection Type -- The Wave Sheaf: The FIRST FRUITS entry distinguishes OT agricultural offering (LEV 23:10-14) from figurative NT use (ROM 8:23; 1CO 15:20,23; JAS 1:18). The research agent should retrieve LEV 23:9-14 (wave sheaf ordinance), 1CO 15:12-28 (full resurrection argument), and MAT 27:51-53 (saints raised at the resurrection). Run greek_parser.py on 1CO 15:20 to analyze egegertai (perfect passive) and aparche (G536). Run cross_testament_parallels_v2.py on 1CO 15:20 and 1CO 15:23. The wave sheaf is offered lirtsonekhem ("for your acceptance") -- trace how Christ's resurrection secures the acceptance of the full harvest.

  5. Pentecost Fulfillment -- Spirit on the Exact Day: Nave's PENTECOST entry lists four alternate names (Feast of Weeks, Feast of Harvest, Day of First Fruits, Day of Pentecost) plus institution texts and ACT 2 as fulfillment. HARVEST links wheat harvest at Pentecost to EXO 34:22 and LEV 23:15-17. The research agent should retrieve ACT 2:1-42 (full Pentecost narrative), LEV 23:15-22 (institution including the structural gap at v.22), and JOL 2:28-32 (Peter's quotation source). Run greek_parser.py on ACT 2:1 to analyze symplērousthai. Investigate the 50-day count: from what date exactly? How does the morrow-after-the-Sabbath question affect the count?

  6. The Leavened Loaves of Pentecost -- Why Leaven at This Feast?: LEV 23:17 prescribes two leavened loaves as the Pentecost wave offering -- unique in the entire feast system. The LEAVEN entry confirms leaven = sin symbol (1CO 5:6-8; MAT 16:6-12), yet at Pentecost leaven is commanded. The research agent should retrieve LEV 23:15-21 and compare with LEV 2:11 (no leaven in grain offerings). The two loaves may represent Jews and Gentiles -- both containing sin yet accepted by God. Retrieve ACT 10:44-48 and ACT 11:15-18 (Gentile inclusion) as Pentecost's extension. How does the leavened offering connect to the church as imperfect yet accepted?

  7. The Calendrical Precision Argument: All four spring feasts were fulfilled on their exact dates. The research agent should build a timeline: (a) Passover sacrifice Nisan 14 = crucifixion; (b) Unleavened Bread begins Nisan 15 = burial/first full day in tomb; (c) Firstfruits "morrow after the sabbath" = resurrection on Sunday; (d) Pentecost 50 days later = Acts 2 Spirit outpouring. Retrieve JHN 19:14,31 (paraskeue language), MAT 27:62-28:6 (Sabbath to Sunday transition), ACT 1:3 (40 days of appearances) and ACT 2:1 (Pentecost arrival). The precision of four independent fulfillments on four successive feast dates constitutes a pattern -- what does this demand for the fall feasts?

  8. The Harvest Metaphor -- Firstfruits Guarantees Full Harvest: The FIRST FRUITS and HARVEST entries connect: the firstfruit consecrates the whole batch (ROM 11:16), Christ as firstfruits guarantees the believers' resurrection harvest (1CO 15:20,23). Paul's tagma ("rank/order," 1CO 15:23) creates a sequence: Christ first, then "they that are Christ's at his coming." The research agent should retrieve ROM 11:13-24 (firstfruit/root/branches), 1CO 15:20-28 (resurrection order), JAS 1:18 ("a kind of firstfruits of his creatures"), and REV 14:1-5,15 (harvest imagery). Run search_strongs.py --lookup G536 and --verses G536 to trace all 8 NT uses of aparche.

  9. Shadow-to-Substance Framework (Col 2:16-17; Heb 10:1): The TYPES entry lists COL 2:17; HEB 9:7-15,18-28; 10:1-10 as the interpretive framework. The research agent should retrieve COL 2:14-17 (full context), HEB 10:1-14 (shadow-to-reality argument), and HEB 8:1-6 (copy/shadow of heavenly things). Run greek_parser.py on COL 2:17 to analyze skia ton mellonton and the present participle. How does the shadow/body metaphor establish that the feasts point to real events, not just general spiritual truths?

  10. The Inter-Advent Gap and Its Implications: sanc-12 identified the four-month calendar gap (Pentecost to Trumpets) as corresponding to the church age. LEV 23:22 (gleaning for the poor and stranger) sits at this structural gap. The research agent should retrieve LEV 23:22-25 (the gap text), JAS 5:7-8 (farmer waiting for harvest), JHN 4:35 ("four months... then harvest"). If the spring feasts map to first-advent events with calendrical precision, what does the remaining feast calendar demand? This focus area bridges sanc-13 to future studies on fall feast fulfillment.
