'A calling together,' and always called 'holy.' The occasions called 'holy convocations' are specially given in Leviticus 23 when the Feasts are recorded; they included the Sabbath, and ended with the Feast of Tabernacles. "These are the feasts of the Lord, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord." Leviticus 23:37 . It occurs also in Exodus 12:16; Numbers 28:18,25,26; Numbers 29:1,7,12 . The same Hebrew word is translated 'assemblies' in Isaiah 1:13; Isaiah 4:5 .
