<P> The seven festivals do not necessarily occur on weekly Shabbat ( seventh - day Sabbath ) and are called by the name miqra ( `` called assembly '' ) in Hebrew ( Lev. 23 ) . They are observed by Jews and a minority of Christians . Two of them occur in spring : the first and seventh days of Pesach ( Passover ) , and one , Shavuot ; ( Pentecost ) occurs in summer . Four occur in the fall , in the seventh month , and are also called shabbaton : Rosh Hashanah ( Trumpets ) ; Yom Kippur , the `` Sabbath of Sabbaths '' ( Atonement ) ; and the first and eighth days of Sukkoth ( Tabernacles ) . Sometimes the word shabbaton is extended to mean all seven festivals . </P>
