THE MO'ADIM - THE SET-APART TIMES OF THE LORD

Leviticus 23:1 - 3

Then Adonai spoke to Moses saying: "Speak to Bnei-Yisrael, and tell them: These are the appointed moadim of Adonai, which you are to proclaim to be holy convocations—My moadim. "Work may be done for six days, but the seventh day is a Shabbat of solemn rest, a holy convocation. You are to do no work—it is a Shabbat to Adonai in all your dwellings.

Are these festivals the festivals of the Jewish people or are they the festivals and appointed times of God Himself?
