Numbers 29:35 On the eighth day, which is most solemn, you shall do no servile work:

Eighth day, which was more solemn than the preceding ones, but less so than the first. The victims are every day diminished. (Calmet) --- This day, in the Hebrew calendar, is called the feast of retention, (atsroth) as they staid near the tabernacle. (Du Hamel)
