1) The major festivals are from the Torah (from God). See Leviticus ch.23. This includes Shabbat, Passover, Shavuot, Sukkot, Rosh Hashanah, and Yom Kippur. Rosh Hodesh (first day of each month - a minor occasion) is also from the Torah (Numbers ch.28). Purim is from the Prophets (Esther ch.9), as are the fast days other than Yom Kippur (see Zechariah ch.8, and Talmud Rosh Hashanah 18b).
