The Feast of Passover begins in Israel in a few hours....at sunset....(I am typing this around 9 AM on Wednesday....April 1....or Nissan 14 on the Jewish calendar)....and will last until sunset on April 8. Right now would be the 3 PM hour is Israel....right when Jesus said from the cross...."It is finished." The feast of Firstfruits will be sunset to sunset beginning on Apil 4....and this is when Jesus was resurrected. All of the Jewish feasts and fasts have prophetic meaning and fulfillments along with the historical events. They are not given to us to predict when something will happen....but rather to show us....or remind us through events of the day...of what happened.
Note: We have not celebrated Easter....as Christendom observes Easter....in....well probably never since I became a believer. There were never any chocolate bunnies or egg hunts or baskets....except when grandparents might have given one....and we politely accepted. Easter Sunday was never a special Sunday....because every Sunday....is a Lord's Day....and every Lord's Day....celebrates the Resurrection! Others hold to different observances. We all can deal with this. The importance is that....Jesus is risen!
