Festivals in the New Testament

There are no rules about feast days in the New Testament as there are in the Old Testament. There are, however, descriptions of Jewish festivals: Passover, the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the Harvest Festival and the Festival of Shelters.
There is also mention of the Festival of the Dedication of the Temple.
