PASSOVER SCENARIO

The following scenario is based on the words of Yeshua, "For as Yonah was three days and three nights in the stomach of the great fish, so shall the Son of Adam be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. " (Matthew 12:40), and on the rest of Scriptural evidence. Remember, Hebrew days begin at sundown. It is also important to remember that Yeshua is the fulfillment of the Passover Lamb, and a true fulfillment had to follow the days of Passover.

1. Yeshua came and offered Himself as the Sacrificial Passover Lamb on 10 Aviv, a Sabbath (Saturday), when He rode into Jerusalem on a donkey. It was a Sabbath Day's journey from Bethany. He taught three days: Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, in the Temple.

2. He celebrated the Passover Seder on 14 Aviv (Tuesday night) with His talmidim (the twelve). It was here that He explained the meaning of His person in the Passover elements. Afterwards they all went out to Gethsemene, where they spent part of the night.

3. Yeshua was arrested during the night and His trial continued until about 9 am (3rd hour after 6:00 am), when He was put on the stake. At 3:00 pm (9th hour) on Wednesday He died.

4. He was taken down from the execution stake before the beginning of the Great Sabbath that evening, which is the 15 Aviv, the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

5. He was in the grave the nights of Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. He was in the grave the days of Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Three full days and three full nights.

6. Therefore, He rose from the dead toward the arrival of the first day of the week, 18 Aviv, a Saturday evening. The women came early on Sunday morning to FIND that Yeshua had already risen.

7. The day of Yeshua's resurrection was also the celebration called Yom HaBikkurim or First Fruits (Leviticus 23), which is always the first day of the week after the Passover.

Believers who want to follow the truth need to rethink their blind obedience to the tradition of men. Rather, we need to follow the commandment of Elohim, which He is restoring this day.
