Passover Programme 2016 CE
The execution of the Messiah did not take place on a Friday, nor was He resurrected on a Sunday. If we are to properly understand the order of events, we must start to think as those who witnessed the events and who first wrote the record were accustomed to think. Remember what was written in the early records, 'and there was evening and there was morning, one day' [Bereshith – Genesis 1:5 ] and so on, throughout the description there of the creation. This order of time has never been changed in the Hebrew mind from then until now. So, we see that, at the time we are looking at here, the time of occupation of Israel by the Roman power, the writers were arranging their lives according to the Hebrew Calendar. The Julian and Gregorian calendars,today so all-important to the majority of Western society, were of absolutely no interest to the Jews. There are three main Feasts which the Jews are duty-bound to observe, and here, we are considering the one-day Feast of Passover (Pesach)
