just sharing a few links , again I know for a fact that the creator of the universe or anything having to do with the end times would never resort to sneaking anywhere and he has revealed all things to us. we need look no further than the feast to have these things and timings revealed to us.I feel the overlooked study of these by the church is satans idea of a funny counterfeit joke.I've mentioned before that 4 out of these 7 feast have been fulfilled already in prophecy.
Hebrew Idiom
In ancient times, when the bridegroom would come for his bride in the middle of the night, it was often referred to as “a thief in the night”.

Unless the Lord guards the city, The watchman keeps awake in vain. Psalms 127:1b My soul waits for the Lord more than the watchmen for the morning; indeed, more than the watchmen for the morning. Psalms 130:6 Anyone who has ever stood a late night or early morning watch can tell you what falling asleep on watch is all about. It is easier than you can imagine. In fact, you must make a diligent effort not to fall prey to it. Drinking coffee, splashing cold water in your face, jumping up and down with vigorous physical activity are but a few of the techniques to stay awake. I know of some highly trained soldiers in combat situations who actually used hot sauce in their eyes to keep awake. You do what you have to do to stay awake on watch.
In ancient times, the temple was guarded at night. The watchman were required to stay awake on watch. They also tended the altar fire at night to ensure that the evening sacrifice would be completely consumed prior to the morning service. They longed for the dawn of the day, so the light of day would help them fulfill their duty to be awake. They also were aware of someone who would come in the darkness, just before the dawn of the day. That someone was the High Priest.
It was said that the High Priest would come in the darkness like a thief in the night, that is, he would enter the temple stealthily. If the watchman had fallen asleep then the altar fire would be unattended. The High Priest would gather some coals from the altar and go looking for the sleeping watchman. Upon finding him, he would ignite the bottom of his garments with the fire from the altar. The watchman would awake with his clothes on fire. Obviously, he would tear off his clothes, be wounded, and go home naked. It was a bad scene for him.
Yeshua used this very scenario to describe His return. Besides, He is the Great High Priest. He is going to check the status of the altar that is in the temple within our hearts.
Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his garments, lest he walk about naked and men see his shame. Revelation 16:15
