Many people believe our Lord, Jesus-Yeshua, was not having the Passover Feast meal or Last Supper, on Passover.

It is thought by many that He had it early on the Day of Preparation.

People do not render acknowledgement to the information afforded by the Old Testament on days, nights etc.

The Day of Preparation is Friday on our calendars, but only during the day.

Passover began at sundown on our Friday for at sundown was the beginning of the Sabbath of the Sabbath.

Now you may understand more clearly that the Last Supper was the Passover meal which has come to be called a Seder.

Shabbat shalom l'col...

In my post, Sabbath of the Sabbath should read Sabbath of the feast of Passover.

WE more or less agree. The only thing that we could discuss is whether it must be on a Friday. This is because the Passover is on a lunar date - the 14th of Nisan. It must then vary from year to year. On the year that our Lord was crucified, that must have fallen on a Wednesday evening - like this year. Last year (2019) was a Friday. This is only important though because the Lord was raised - not on a lunar date, but on the "first day of the week". Weeks never change, so the resurrection must have been sometime after sunset Saturday - which is then the first day of the week. If we take our Lord's journey on a donkey not being on a Sabbath, and the "Lamb" inspected for 4 (four) days, PLUS the three days in Hades, Wednesday is the only day that fits all the requirements.

I think that if the Lord thought that this was important, He would have left more evidence. But we have enough to trash the Roman Catholic Easter (or Ishtar - feast to the fertility goddess). It, being based on the worship of the sun and moon, falls on the first "Sun"day after the first full moon after the Spring Equinox (northern hemisphere).

From certain Heabrew scholars knowledgeable in the Biblical Lunar calendar, Jesus was crucified on a Tuesday. I do not believe nor disbelieve this. I do know that no man can sayu for certain the actual day He was for no man knows with certainty what the year of His crucifixion actually is.
