“I was more than happy to read [Dr. Paterson’s] new work The Feasts of Israel, full of religious holiday facts and the joy of family sharing. As the Chairman of the EOCPC (Evangelical Order Certified Pastoral Counsellors), of which Dr. Paterson is a ten-year member, I highly recommend this book, which gave me insight into these events that I wish I could have learned many years ago. Those in ministry and those contemplating commenting on the question of Israel should read this book.”
~ Dr. Stephen Hambly Chairman, Evangelical Order Certified Pastoral Counsellors Executive Director, Canadian Christian Clinical Counsellors Association
“In The Feasts of Israel, Dr. Paterson is able to explain to the general reader the basic concepts of each of the biblical feasts. Using clear and understandable terminology, the author takes us through each of these feasts in a journey that is informational, inspirational, and exciting at the same time. Most importantly for the Christian reader is the way the book makes the connection between the meaning of each of the Old Testament feasts with many of the celebrations that are part of the Christian tradition. The correlation, similarities, and fulfillment of Israel’s feasts in their counterpart Christian celebrations come across throughout the pages of this work. The book is an excellent introductory tool for anyone interested in learning more about the feasts of Israel and how they relate to the Christian liturgical year. It makes for very pleasant reading, explaining profound concepts without using difficult language. It definitely offers a new perspective on Israel’s feasts. I was blessed by reading it!”

“Dr. Paterson unfolds before us the reason for our purpose, our pursuit, and of our potential, our power and praise through her book The Feasts of Israel. Come, pull up a chair to the table and celebrate the feast the Lord has prepared for you, even in the midst of your enemies. The Feasts of Israel is a timely and refreshing reminder to every believer in Y’eshua of our core foundation, our living roots, our destined growth and reason to be and remain fruitful here in the earth so that all may see, experience and taste heaven through the redeemed and know firsthand that ‘the Lord – He is good!’”
~ Pastor Michael C. Diotte, Ph.D. Streams of Victory Church Toronto, ON.
“Even as a student Dr. Paterson was careful about detail and clarity. Here, in The Feasts of Israel that care to detail, clarity is seen. By writing with clarity, remembering the reader may not know anything of these feasts, Dr. Paterson’s approach aligns basic truths of Judaism and Christianity in a way that is easy to grasp. I find her treatment of the Feasts is a clear overview upon which extended teaching could be built. It is my privilege to recommend both the writer and the book to those who desire a foundational understanding that collates the Feasts of Israel to Christianity.”
~ Dr. William J. Hurst, DThs., PhD. DPC. DD. President, Institute of Strategic Christian Leadership
“I appreciated the way this book was written, it is easy to understand and follow… If you want to learn more about your Jewish heritage or about [Israel’s feasts] in general then this is a great place to start.”
