PASSOVER
Sunset April 5 2023
In this special Podcast, I take a look at Passover. Are we instructed to keep Yahweh’s Holy Days, such as Passover or do we follow the church tradition of Easter? Listen to this explosive study on what Yahweh has to say about this.
What day was the Passover on? What was the significance of Passover? What does the number of the days have to do with Yahweh? Did Yahweh have a plan for all of this?
Now I realize that the conditions set forth by Yahweh differs from what He set forth in the beginning. What caught my interest into these 7 Holy Feasts was the Prophetic Message contained within them.
We find that within these 7, 4 are in the season of the spring, while the remaining 3 are in the fall or “harvest.
In studying the Prophecy aspect of Yahweh’s Words, we realize and conclude that these 7 Holy Feasts play an important role in the Prophecy of Yahshua Messiah concerning the past and the present.
Today we will focus on Passover.
Let’s take a brief view of the first 4 Feasts:
The Feast of Passover pointed to Yahshua’s death on Calvary as “the Lamb of Yahweh, who taketh away the sin of the world”, John 1:29
The Feast of Unleavened Bread attested to the fact that Yahshua’s body, unlike all others would not decay in the grave. The Son of Yahweh, in speaking with His Heavenly Father said, “for Thou wilt not leave My soul in hell, neither wilt Thou permit Thine Holy One to see corruption” Psalms 16:10
The Feast of Firstfruits proclaimed the certainty of His bodily resurrection. The acceptance by Yahweh of the Firstfruits [sheaf] of the spring barley harvest guaranteed a full harvest to follow. By virtue of the resurrection of Yahshua Messiah, He is the Firstfruits and guarantees that all the Saints within Him will one day rise from the grave.
The Feast of Pentecost, which occurs exactly 50 days after Firstfruits [the resurrection of the Messiah] anticipated the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the origin of the “Ek-kelsia”. We read in the Jewish Talmud, in the tractate of Sotah, foli #48 it reads in part “when Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi died, the Holy Spirit departed from Israel; nevertheless they made use of the Bath Kol.” [a divine voice from Heaven]
These 4 events in the life of Yahshua Messiah, which the 4 spring feasts depicted, are history. We can look back at these events and they can be examined as historical facts. We can say that the first 4 set the foundation for the remaining 3. [As I think on this foundation, I think of the Tabernacle, which is to come, and when this Tabernacle comes, then all of His Elect come to dwell in the eternal]
The fall Feasts have not yet occurred! They are yet future and predict with absolute certainty, events that will most assuredly unfold. As the 4 spring Feasts were fulfilled literally and right on schedule in connection with the Messiah’s first coming, the 3 Fall Feasts will likewise be fulfilled literally and right on schedule in connection with His second coming.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches:
1170 At the Council of Nicea in 325, all the Churches agreed that Easter, the Christian Passover, should be celebrated on the Sunday following the first full moon (14 Nisan) after the vernal equinox
