Easton's Bible Dictionary

A meeting of a religious character as distinguished from congregation, which was more general, dealing with political and legal matters. Hence it is called an "holy convocation." Such convocations were the Sabbaths (Leviticus 23:2, 3), the Passover (Exodus 12:16; Leviticus 23:7, 8; Numbers 28:25), Pentecost (Leviticus 23:21), the feast of Trumpets (Leviticus 23:24; Numbers 29:1), the feast of Weeks (Numbers 28:26), and the feast of Tabernacles (Leviticus 23:35, 36). The great fast, the annual day of atonement, was "the holy convocation" (Leviticus 23:27; Numbers 29:7).

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary

1. (n.) The act of calling or assembling by summons.

2. (n.) An assembly or meeting.

3. (n.) An assembly of the clergy, by their representatives, to consult on ecclesiastical affairs.

4. (n.) An academic assembly, in which the business of the university is transacted.

CONVOCATION

kon-vo-ka'-shun: A rendering for miqra' chiefly in the frequent "Holy Convocation"; but the word is sometimes used alone, e.g. Numbers 10:2 Isaiah 1:13; Isaiah 4:5. On a holy convocation no work could be done. The phrase differs from "solemn assembly," which in the Pentateuch is only applied to the concluding festivals at the end of Passover and Tabernacles, while "Holy Convocation" is used of the Sabbath and all the great holy days of the Mosaic legislation.
