I'll wait a bit for someone else to answer, or you to figure it out. Meantime, here's a couple of hints: + Shavuot and Pentecost are the same moed - Pentecost (meaning 50) is the Greek name for the Hebrew moed of Shavuot, because it falls (7weeks X 7 days) + 1 = 50 days after one of the feast days you are missing - counting those days is called "Counting the Omer," which is commanded but not a "feast" + Chanukkah is not a commanded moed - it is a celebration of a delayed Sukkot, and not in our 66 book Bible - it is in the Apocrypha, which is in the RC Bible in the books of the Maccabees

Since you put this in the board about Purim: this year Purim occurs on the evening of the 16th and the day of the 17th of March. And it is not a commanded feast either.

No one wants to take this? OK, here are the Seven Feasts of the Lord (moedim/appointed times):
Spring Moedim
Pesach- Nisan 14 at evening, which is also the start of the new day (Nisan 15). Leviticus 23:5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight [between the two evenings], is the Lord's Passover.
Unleavened Bread- Nisan 15-21, the next night after Passover. It lasts seven days. Leviticus 23:6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord; for seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.
Firstfruits- Nisan 17 Leviticus 23:9-11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land that I give you and reap its harvest, you shall bring the sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest, and he shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, so that you may be accepted. On the day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it.
Shavuot (NT Pentecost)- Sivan 6, 50 days after the wave offering of Firstfruits. Counting these days is important, as a.) it is commanded, and b.) it keeps us connected to the Spring Moedim and aware we are yet in the time of the harvest. Leviticus 23:15-16 “You shall count seven full weeks from the day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering. You shall count fifty days to the day after the seventh Sabbath. Then you shall present a grain offering of new grain to the Lord.
Fall Moedim
Yom Teruah/Rosh Hashana- Tishri 1. Leviticus 23:23-25 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the people of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall observe a day of solemn rest, a memorial proclaimed with blast of trumpets, a holy convocation. You shall not do any ordinary work, and you shall present a food offering to the Lord.”
Yom Kippur- Tishri 10 Leviticus 23:26-28 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Now on the tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. It shall be for you a time of holy convocation, and you shall afflict yourselves [fast] and present a food offering to the Lord. And you shall not do any work on that very day, for it is a Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before the Lord your God.
Sukkot- Tishri 15 Leviticus 23:33-34, 42 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the people of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month and for seven days is the Feast of Booths [Sukkoth/Tabernacles] to the Lord. … You shall dwell in booths for seven days. All native Israelites shall dwell in booths,
Shabbat is also a commanded moed, however it is not typically on the list. Rosh Chodesh too is commanded, but often overlooked as well. Apparently when we list them we are thinking more of "holidays." Probably why you were confused about Chanukkah being one of the moedim. It is a valid holiday, but not commanded in Torah. Same with Purim. And need I say this? Christmas, Easter, and especially Halloween are NOT on ANY list of moedim, holidays, feasts, or days to even take note of. Just sayin' ...

Maybe the reason why "no on wants to take this" might be because a lot of people didn't have the answer? I say this because I had done a lot of research online to see if I could get this list but could not. So thank you very much for giving me this list! Blessings. p.s. I started learning Hebrew, learned to read and write my first word "Abba"
