have different dates for the Passover/Pesach week.
The Hebrew Calendar and Gods Appointed Times/Feasts, are always on the exact same date every year, whereas on the Gregorian calendar the months in which they fall are different.
This year, Sunday 24th March is/was Palm Sunday with Good Friday on March 29th followed by Resurrection Sunday on 31st of March. However Passover/Pesach according to the scriptures is always in the month of Nisan on the 14th day which is 22nd of April on the Gregorian calendar that is used today.
In Leviticus 23:1–2, the Lord told Moses, “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘The Lord’s appointed times which you shall proclaim as holy convocations—My appointed times are these:’”
Pope Gregory influenced the changes to the biblical dates in an effort to remove everything Jewish from Christianity and the roman catholic churches initiated new doctrines out of which every western denomination evolved.
Gregory XIII was the pope from 1572 to 1585, who promulgated the Gregorian calendar and founded a system of seminaries for Roman Catholic priests. The Gregorian calendar, a solar dating system now in general use. It was proclaimed by PopeGregory XIII as a reform of the Juliancalendar. He issued a papal bull, “Inter Gravissimus” and decreed that 10 days be skipped when switching to the Gregorian calendar on February 24, 1582 that established it as the new and official calendar of the Catholic world. The original goal of the Gregorian calendar was to change the date of Passover and called it Easter. It also gave us the leap year.
The Pesach/Passover, Appointed Time, set in by the Father is always in the month of Nisan which begins on 9th April.
4These are the LORD’s appointed feasts, the sacred assemblies you are to proclaim at their appointed times. 5The Passover to the LORD begins at twilight on the fourteentha day of the first month. 6On the fifteenth day of the same month begins the Feast of Unleavened Breadb to the LORD. For seven days you must eat unleavened bread. 7On the first day you are to hold a sacred assembly; you are not to do any regular work.8For seven days you are to present an offering made by fire to the LORD. On the seventh day there shall be a sacred assembly; you must not do any regular work.’”
Pesach/Passover according to scripture begins with the feast of the firstborn on nisan 14 (Monday 22 April)
The feast of unleavened bread begins 15th Nisan (23rd april) and
feast of first fruits which is also 1st day of counting the Omer to Pentecost/Shavuot on Nisan 16th (wed 24thapril )
Passover continues through the week and ends 22Nisan (tues 30th Apr).
Passover/Pesach is the remembrance of the children of Israels exodus and deliverance from Egyptian bondage as slaves, freed from cruel servitude. The Lord came down and delivered His people and by the sacrificial blood of a perfect lamb placed on their dwellings. The death angel passed over them and their deliverance was assured.
This was a type and shadow of the sacrificial death of Messiah, the perfect Lamb of God, whose blood has been applied to our house/our very being, and we are delivered from the devil/the cruel taskmaster of this world/ redeemed from sin and death and set free into newness of life. This is mainly what christians celebrate today not realizing the original passover is significant.
There will also be a greater exodus to come when Messiah returns and executes judgment over the sin in this worlds systems; and the demonic realm that inspires it. We will be delivered finally from the sin and death that is rampant in this world as He comes to take those of us still here to be together with Him.
The Passover/Pesach, did not begin with Messiahs death just 2000 years ago, and is not the only thing we are to remember at this appointed season. For those unfamiliar with the Pesach/Passover, according to the directions in the Torah, we must begin with reading
Exodus 6:2,3 I am the Lord I appeared to Abraham and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by my name the LORD I did not make myself fully known to them.
Moses and Aaron were commissioned by YHVH to go before Pharaoh and deliver the message to let my people go.
Note the divine name
YHVH יְהוָ֔ה
was already known in a cognitive sense by the pre Moses fathers. But this passage and the accompanying revelation of YHVH’s
4 verbs of redemption YOD HEY VAV HEY
is intended to indicate the direct experience of the power and glory not seen by the forefathers.
The 4 verbs/action words of redemption are in the Exodus itself and are the 4 cups of Passover/pesach.
1 I will free
2 deliver
3 redeem
4 take you
That is the basis of the annual remembrance of His redeeming power; the action which was ultimately fulfilled with Yeshua Messiahs sacrificial death as the Passover lamb whose blood secured their salvation from death (angel). Followed by the:
free, deliver, redeem, take you out of bondage
as slaves to Egypt -(a type of the world)
and Pharaoh/type of the devil/adversary.
The combined destiny of sin and death, without the sacrificial blood,
(the wages of sin is death); Romans 6:23
(the life is in the blood) – Leviticus 17:11
(a life for a life) Deut. 19:21.
We lose the fullness of meaning in what we call communion, because we only have 1 cup – the cup of redemption which is the third cup.
So when Messiah references the cup. I shall drink, and the cup Messiah Yeshua took during the meal are far more significant than we realize.
Our exodus will be complete when we exit this earth, either when we transition as He calls us home, or when He returns and He will drink the cup with us in the kingdom to come.
God waits to judge, until the iniquity of sin is full; and these are judgments against
the kingdom of darkness,
the adversary and
the fallen angels.
I will take them out from under the burdens
I shall rescue you from their service
I shall redeem you with an outstretched arm and great judgments
I shall take you to me for a people
I shall be an Elohim to you and you’ll know that I am Yahweh
I shall bring you to the land and give it to you as a heritage.
The arm is Yeshua/Messiah and great judgments will come in the end days.
3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty,but by my name the LORD I did not make myself fully known to them.
4 I also established my covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, where they resided as foreigners.
5 Moreover, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have remembered my covenant.
6 “Therefore, say to the Israelites: ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians. I will free you from being slaves to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment.
7 I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.
8 And I will bring you to the land I swore with uplifted hand to give to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am the LORD.’ ”
The four I wills in vs 6-8
I will take you out 1st cup of sanctification
I will rescue you 2nd cup of judgment
I will redeem you 3rd cup of redemption
I will take you 4th cup of praise
This is the cup He will drink with us anew in the kingdom on His return.
Exodus 3:15 God also told Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers–the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob–has sent me to you.’ This is My name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered in every generation.
It is here that Yahweh tells Abraham His name is YHVH.
And God speaks to Moses and says to him, “I [am] YHWH, יְהוָ֔ה
We are now at the 4thI will of Exodus 6:6-8.
I will take you as My people.
He is bringing us out from under the worlds/Egypts burdens.
Our Heavenly Father/Yahweh is bringing everything together as He did at Mt Sinai, where He personally came down to make covenant with the sons of Israel; and He will personally come down to complete His plan of the ages.
