Feasts and Festivals of Israel (חַג, chag; מוֹעֵד, mo'ed; ἑορτή, heortē). Regularly occurring community events that recognized God’s work and presence with His people.

Feasts and festivals were a common component of ancient religious practice. They were celebrations of divine provision or protection. Each major Israelite feast recognized a specific aspect of God’s saving work. Since sharing a table signified peace or fellowship, feasts as religious observances demonstrated a peaceful relationship between God and Israel. The most significant texts regarding the feasts of Israel are Lev 23, describing the festivals, Num 28–29, emphasizing the offerings, and Deut 16, emphasizing pilgrimages. In addition to national festivals, Israelites celebrated other occasions such as birthdays, weddings, and agricultural or personal events. These occasions, while more private, were not secular, as each event had a divine blessing.
