2 Israel Sukkot Tour 2017 Now at we know e dates for Sukkot we have gone ahead and planned to do a tour is Sukkot. We are going to start in Israel and en head over to Jordan to see where Moses died and where e Baal Peor event started as well as look at e Gigal sites in Jordan. These Gigal sites are where e Tabernacle was placed while ey stayed in at area. Joshua s altar was e site ey built in at Jubilee year at ey entered e land of Israel. We will also go to oer sites in Israel and to Joshua s Altar. We will have e Holy Days off during e Hebrew Calendar and Crescent moon calendar days. So you will have time to do oer ings in Jerusalem. Please go to is link to learn more about is tour. We do need people to commit by certain dates in order for is tour to go forward. Sanhedrin Sights e New Moon to begin e year For 11 years now I have been telling everyone I can at e Crescent moon is e biblical and proper way to start e mon so at you can en count to each of e Holy Days from. Before 2005 I was following e Hebrew Calendar as I was taught in e World Wide Churches of God. But we were wrong en and you are wrong today if you are using e Hebrew calendar to tell you when e Holy Days are. Yehovah does not change. He changes not. Hebrew 13:8 Jesus Christ is e same yesterday and today and forever. Malachi 3:6 For I am e LORD, I change not; erefore you sons of Jacob are not consumed. Everyone knows e Hebrew Calendar was put forward by Hillel in 358 C.E. But how many of you stop and ink what was e calendar at was before Hillel? Many will now write me and state e Hebrew Calendar is e one we are to be using, you will state at as fact. But you never check your facts to see if in fact what you just wrote or believe is in fact true. So what calendar was being used before Hillel? Let me share a recent article from Israel News. They are saying at ose following e Hillel calendar will be keeping e Holy Days on e wrong day. Breaking Israel News Blow e horn at e new moon, at e full moon for our feast-day. For it is a statute for Yisrael, an ordinance of e God of Yaakov. Psalms 81:4-5 (The Israel Bible ) Kohanim (Jewish priests) announcing e new mon wi trumpets. (Adam Propp) 2/15

3 On Wednesday evening, one of e most important Torah commandments is not going to take place, and as a result, in two weeks, e world s Jews will celebrate Passover on e wrong night. The nascent Sanhedrin is attempting to begin fixing is problem. The Sanhedrin will meet on e Mount of Olives in Jerusalem on Wednesday as e sun sets to observe e new moon. This event is meant as a small first step towards reinstating e important mitzvah (Torah commandment) of establishing e calendar via witnesses reporting to a Sanhedrin. The beginning of our redemption from Egypt began wi is, Rabbi Hillel Weiss, spokesman for e Sanhedrin, told Breaking Israel News. Reinstating e new mon and witnesses appearing before e Sanhedrin will be e true beginning of is redemption. The new moon is God sending us a sign of new beginnings, and for us to establish Pesach (Passover) in its time. New moon In Temple times, e new mon was a festival, marked by e blowing of e shofar and special sacrifices. Messengers were sent out and a series of mountaintop pyres lit to spread e word to outlying communities. The Temple festivities were part of e observance, but declaring e new mon had practical implications for setting e calendar. The Jewish calendar is based on e lunar cycle and by setting it according to eyewitness observance of e new moon, e Biblical Sanhedrin ensured at Jews observed e holidays in eir proper time. Today s problem, Rabbi Weiss explained, is at e true date of e appearance of e moon no longer synchronizes wi e beginning of e mon as it appears on e calendar. He pointed to e current mon of Nisan as an example. According to e Jewish calendar, e mon began on Monday evening. But e first sliver of e new moon which should appear on Rosh Chodesh (e first day of e new mon) will not actually be visible until Wednesday evening. It is a national imperative to re-establish is mitzvah, Rabbi Weiss said. All of e mitzvot pertaining to e holidays emanate from is one act. The discrepancy occurs regularly because e destruction of e Second Temple in 70 CE led to 3/15

4 e dissolution of e Sanhedrin. Wiout e Sanhedrin to hear testimonies, it was no longer possible to determine e new mon by witnessing. The modern Jewish calendar was set according to a 19-year cycle wi an additional mon added seven times during at cycle. Even wi is correction, e Hebrew calendar falls behind e actual lunar cycle at e rate of one day every 216 years. As a result, e established calendar is now out of sync wi e lunar cycles. Witnessing e new mon is an important mitzvah and establishing correct times for e holidays is of utmost importance. But it is especially auspicious to witness e mon now, as e Bible counts Nisan as e first mon. This mon shall be unto you e beginning of mons; it shall be e first mon of e year to you. Exodus 12:2 Israel is a nation, and is mitzvah is what made us a nation, Rabbi Weiss told Breaking Israel News, noting at e word you in e verse is plural. Today, every Jew looks at e calendar on his wall and his entire framework of time is a personal issue. Time, e calendar, is e most important element at brings us togeer as e Jewish nation. Rabbi Hillel Weiss (Facebook) The Nation of Israel needs to re-establish is mitzvah in its completeness, e rabbi asserted. But is can only happen when e people acknowledge a Sanhedrin to accept e witnesses account of e new moon. When is happens, when ere is a Sanhedrin sitting in Jerusalem, e impact will be perceived by an global increase in serving God. The rabbi quoted e Prophet Isaiah as an explanation. And many peoples shall go and say: Come ye, and let us go up to e mountain of Hashem, to e house of e God of Yaakov; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His pas. For out of Tzion shall go for e law, and e word of Hashem from Yerushalayim. Isaiah 2:3 However, Rabbi Weiss made one important disclaimer. Even ough e calendar needs to be adjusted, unity is of e utmost importance, e rabbi said. Jews are required to adhere to e calendar accepted by e entire nation. Until a formal Sanhedrin is accepted by e nation, Jews must use e established calendar and observe e holidays on e days mandated by rabbinic auorities, he concluded. Rabbi Weiss and members of e Sanhedrin sighting e moon Aviv Comments is week The first week of e New Year has now passed. The Shemita, or Shmita or Sabbatical year is 4/15

5 now over. We await e new crops to come in before we can eat em fresh once again. I have now given all my fruit trees a heavy pruning as well as grape vines I have here. It has been a learning curve for many people. I have loss 30 lbs since is time last year. I run out of my treats way too soon and en have to do wiout. So next time again I must make a note to load up on e junk food before e next Sabbatical year in That is Yehovah willing I am again able to keep e next one. But for all of us now, who have now completed for many of you e first ever Sabbatical year, now is e time to plan for e next one. What did you do at was right? What did you do at failed? This is e first year of e Sabbatical Cycle. To me it is e year to plant trees so at ey are ready by e next Sabbatical year. You are not to touch e fruit for e first 3 years. The 4 year all e fruit belongs to Yehovah and en in e 5 year you can harvest e fruit. So is first year is e year to plant your trees. Lev 19:23 When you come into e land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, en you shall count eir fruit as uncircumcised. Three years it shall be as uncircumcised to you. It shall not be eaten. But in e four year all its fruit shall be holy, a praise to e Lord. And in e fif year you may eat its fruit, at it may yield to you its increase: I am e Lord your God. Here are some oer comments about is past year at may be of interest to you. Remembering e Sabbatical Year of 2016 The Way I See It PATRICIA ARMSTRONG FRIDAY, 31 MARCH 2017 Leviticus 25:2 Speak to e children of Israel, and say to em, When you come into e land which I give you, en e land shall observe a Sabba to Yah. 3 Six years you sow your field, and six years you prune your vineyard, and gaer in its fruit, 4 but in e seven year e land is to have a Sabba to Yah. Do not sow your field and do not prune your vineyard. 5 Do not reap what grows of its own of your harvest, and do not gaer e grapes of your unpruned vine, for it is a year of rest for e land. The prospect of observing a Sabbatical Year was frightful to say e least. I d been studying e Torah for over 2 years and had success wi observing e Sabba and observing e Feasts and Holy Days but is would be a straight calendar year s time of storing up food, rationing our daily meals and seeing if we could make everying last rough great planning. I m not an expert in canning so I wasn t able to preserve anying at way but we bought up as much as we could ink of, item by item, mon by mon, meal by meal. I remember saying goodbye to my favourite Golden Retriever at our local produce farm in e fall of 2015 and told him to be a good boy until I would see him in 2 years. That farm has since sold and I shall miss Baxter immensely. When e Sabbatical Year began in March of 2016, I carefully sorted out each item and cleared out e outdated items (I already saw is as a great year coming up). We got started really well..cupboards were full, freezer as well. An amazing friend had sent up spice supplies along wi many oer healy items so second ing for great year.we would eat healier. Spring came and I started eating dandelion leaves but I felt inadequate about which plants were edible and which were not. Noted to self: LEARN MORE ABOUT EDIBLE PLANTS INDIGENOUS TO OUR AREA! The summer was terribly hot so we got very little in e way of berries to eat. 5/15

6 Fall arrived and supplies began to run out.food became bland and our ration of sugar had all but run out. Noted to self: OUR FAMILY MUST CUT BACK MARKEDLY ON SUGAR INTAKE! This was a great revelation to me.e good ing was at my husband suddenly didn t want e white sugar we d stored up..he wanted to use raw sugar instead which was my own stock. Honey became highly sought after for our use. My husband ran out of coffee so he learned at he was drinking coffee in too large of quantities. I just managed to eak out my tea to last until e end of e Sabbatical Year but now I drink far less an when e year began. Noted to self: CAFFEINE IS DEFINITELY A DRUG! Winter was hard and wi no stored vegetables left in cans or frozen, I reckoned to buying frozen for e remainder of e year but no fresh veg.in hopes at e frozen was from stock prior to e beginning of e Sabbatical Year. We will switch at out to fresh veg only and no cans or frozen as is year s produce comes in. What did I learn is year? My greatest point of appreciation was e opportunity at Our Faer gave our family to observe is command at does quite seem to be e hardest to keep. I praise Him for leading us by heart to do so. The second point is my appreciation of e gift of food itself. We live in a part of e world where abundance is at hand and taken for granted. I ought I had appreciation now I have felt hunger and wondered what I would do if we didn t have e chance to buy extra only as strictly necessary knowing at we were trying our best in is, our first attempt. I will feel far more sympay now for ose in countries where ey truly have short food supplies and pray for em to turn to e Torah and repentance at will bless eir families wi abundance. Could we have done better?? As a perfectionist, I will never say we did it right, but it was our very great honour to try. Yes, we most certainly failed on many points in our calculations of e year ahead but we entered no restaurant, no Tim Horton s stopovers for coffee/tea and timbits, noing! Temptation was ere when I would have to take our daughter into a coffee shop s restroom but ose temptations waned as Satan lost interest in trying me. Should I have observed e Sabbatical as a Canadian? When Yah says at when He gives us e land at He will give us, we are to observe e Sabbatical Year.my lineage was lead across e span of is planet and I am a Canadian..and being so, I am not exempt from is command. Besides which, science has easily proven at if we WERE all to allow e land to be fallow every 7 years, we would not need pesticides in e least as e good bacteria would have time to rebuild for e next 6 years to come.so science backs Scripture. So yes, wherever one is on planet Ear, we MUST obey e command to let e land rest it s for OUR HEALTH! And His Name will not be brought to nought (3rd commandment not to bring His Name to vain). Blessings come to ose who love Him to love Him means to obey His commands..all OF THEM! Yes, is year was hard but in e end.i have no regrets, AT ALL! Much love to you all! Shalom from e Armstrong Clan! 6/15

7 Shabbat Shalom Joseph Dumond ank you so much for teaching us about e Sabbatical and Jubilee years. We have completed e Land Rest and are still alive and in good heal despite eating frozen veges and tinned fruit etc. and we never had to forage for anying wild because we also planted veges in every available spot in our garden (oroughly recommend straw bale gardening!!!) We have been exceedingly blessed and e food stored seems to have grown inside our cupboards (and not wi mold). We have enough food to complete anoer year!! So won t have any problems waiting anoer 3 mons before needing to buy new season fruit and vege. Coffee takes 3 mons from harvest to retail so we planned and stored to cover at time. There have been ings at we ve missed, but you know what, it really didn t matter. We got over it and continued. This past year was also our first time being obedient to e feasts. We re new and made mistakes but we didn t give up. All praise and blessings to Yehovah our Abba and teacher. It s been an amazing experience!! Thank you Joseph for your kindness and understanding of all us newbies whom have done what ey could as best ey could to be obedient in is matter. Yehovah bless you and keep you and may He make is face to shine upon you and all ose you love Shalom from Chris & Pauline Roberta Kendall just wanted to stop in and ank you again Joseph, for helping us understand e sabbatical year.. It was a learning experience at I am so ankful for being able to keep. I did pretty good and have lots left, and was able to help several. Yah keep blessing us all as we obey and is so good to us as He keeps giving us more as we do.. Love you all. have a wonderful refreshing Shabbat all Palm Sunday and 6 Days Before Passover We have been going over e 3 days and 3 nights. We also went over e expression And is rd is e 3 Day in our article on The road to Emmaus, noting at e word today is not in e origin text. There is yet one oer section of scriptures at people will toss out at you in order to tell you at e e crucifixion was not on Wednesday, but raer was on e Thursday. We already have abundance of scriptural support for e Wednesday Crucifixion, but let us examine e scriptures at some are putting out and see if ey have any merit or not. They say at Yehshua road into Jerusalem on a colt on Palm Sunday. This is e ten of Nisan. So Monday is en e 11 and Tuesday is en e 12 and Wednesday is en e 13. Not e 14 as I am claiming. In order for Sunday to be e 14 ey say, is en means at Yehshua would ride into Jerusalem on e colt on Sabba and ereby be breaking e Sabba. So it is impossible for Wednesday to be e 14. It has to be e Thursday and I am wrong in my assertions. 7/15

8 Many times ose wi such errant claims get traction when you leave out oer scriptures. Never forget Satan knows e scriptures quite well. He even used em when he tempted Yehshua. But Yehshua did not argue wi him nor debate him, Yehshua just quoted scriptures back to him. Let us do e same. The Jewish Passover beginning on Nisan 14 and e seven-day Feast of Unleavened Bread which follows are filled wi meaning for Christians and Messianic Jews. The preparations for is Feast of e LORD actually begin several days before. In ancient times and in Yeshua s day, when e Temple stood, e lambs chosen for sacrifice had to be inspected for four days. This began on Nisan 10. The lambs were brought into Jewish homes and were carefully watched to be certain ere were no blemishes or illness, which would disqualify em for e Passover sacrifice. Just as e lambs were inspected, so was Yeshua, who is our Passover and e Lamb of God. We read in Exodus 12 e start of e Passover event. What we are going to focus on in is study is when at lamb was taken and en killed. Many are muddying e waters on is, and is is why we are looking at it. Exodus 12:1 Now e Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in e land of Egypt, saying, This mon shall be your beginning of mons; it shall be e first mon of e year to you. Speak to all e congregation of Israel, saying: On e ten of is mon every man shall take for himself a lamb, according to e house of his faer, a lamb for a household. And if e household is too small for e lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to e number of e persons; according to each man s need you shall make your count for e lamb. Your lamb shall be wiout blemish, a male of e first year. You may take it from e sheep or from e goats. Now you shall keep it until e fourteen day of e same mon. Then e whole assembly of e congregation of Israel shall kill it at twilight. And ey shall take some of e blood and put it on e two doorposts and on e lintel of e houses where ey eat it. Then ey shall eat e flesh on at night; roasted in fire, wi unleavened bread and wi bitter herbs ey shall eat it. Yehshua is known to be e Lamb of God. 8/15

9 John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away e sin of e world! John 1:36 Again, e next day, John stood wi two of his disciples. And looking at Jesus as He walked, he said, Behold e Lamb of God! Rev 5:4 So I wept much, because no one was found wory to open and read e scroll, or to look at it. But one of e elders said to me, Do not weep. Behold, e Lion of e tribe of Judah, e Root of David, has prevailed to open e scroll and to loose its seven seals. And I looked, and behold, in e midst of e rone and of e four living creatures, and in e midst of e elders, stood a Lamb as ough it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are e seven Spirits of God sent out into all e ear. Then He came and took e scroll out of e right hand of Him who sat on e rone. Every detail of e Passover Exodus event is replayed now in e Crucifixion of Yehshua. He was e Lamb of Yehovah and He was e lamb at had to be examined and en killed. And just as at lamb was taken into e houses of ose who were about to kill it, so Yehshua was taken to e Temple and examined for ose days leading up to His dea and he was found not guilty. Mark 12:13 Then ey sent to Him some of e Pharisees and e Herodians, to catch Him in His words. Maew 26:59-60 Now e chief priests, e elders, and all e council sought false testimony against Jesus to put Him to dea, but found none. Even ough many false witnesses came forward, ey found none. Luke 23:1 Then e whole multitude of em arose and led Him to Pilate. And ey began to accuse Him, saying, We found is fellow perverting e nation, and forbidding to pay taxes to Caesar, saying at He Himself is Christ, a King. Then Pilate asked Him, saying, Are You e King of e Jews? He answered him and said, It is as you say. So Pilate said to e chief priests and e crowd, I find no fault in is Man. Luke 23:13 Then Pilate, when he had called togeer e chief priests, e rulers, and e people, said to em, You have brought is Man to me, as one who misleads e people. And indeed, having examined Him in your presence, I have found no fault in is Man concerning ose ings of which you accuse Him; no, neier did Herod, for I sent you back to him; and indeed noing deserving of dea has been done by Him. I will erefore chastise Him and release Him (for it was necessary for him to release one to em at e feast). Luke 23:22 Then he said to em e ird time, Why, what evil has He done? I have found no reason for dea in Him. I will erefore chastise Him and let Him go. These are e events at show us e examination and en slaughter of Yehshua. He was and is at Lamb of Yehovah. 9/15

10 Now let us look at e chronology of ese events which again will prove at He was killed on e Wednesday and rose again ree days alter at e end of e Sabba. John 11:55 And e Passover of e Jews was near, and many went from e country up to Jerusalem before e Passover, to purify emselves. Then ey sought Jesus, and spoke among emselves as ey stood in e temple, What do you ink at He will not come to e feast? Now bo e chief priests and e Pharisees had given a command, at if anyone knew where He was, he should report it, at ey might seize Him. It is close to Passover and en we read in John 12:1 Then, six days before e Passover, Jesus came to Beany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom He had raised from e dead. There ey made Him a supper; and Mara served, but Lazarus was one of ose who sat at e table wi Him. Passover was on e Thursday. It was e High day John mentions. Passover is eaten after e sunset at e end of e 14 day when e lambs are killed. Yehshua was killed and was our Passover lamb killed at 3 PM on Wednesday afternoon, e 14 of Nisan. The Passover meal would en be eaten at night. Again see our article 3 Days and 3 Nights. Now let us count back 6 days. Wednesday is one Tuesday is two Monday is ree Sunday is four Saturday is five Friday is e six day and e day Yehshua arrived at e house of Lazarus and Mary and Mara. Notice at Mary made Him supper. So now e 6 day is past and Sunset has occurred and ey are now into e Sabba Friday evening. They are having a Sabba meal. Then in verse 3 we read about e oil being poured on e Feet of Yehshua by Mary and en how Judas rebuked her and en was himself rebuked. John 12:3 Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed e feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet wi her hair. And e house was filled wi e fragrance of e oil. But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon s son, who would betray Him, said, Why was is fragrant oil not sold for ree hundred denarii and given to e poor? This he said, not at he cared for e poor, but because he was a ief, and had e money box; and he used to take what was put in it. But Jesus said, Let her alone; she has kept is for e day of My burial. For e poor you have wi you always, but Me you do not have always. 10/15

11 John en goes on to tell us of e crowd at came to see bo Yehshua and Lazarus. This was not at supper time but had to have been on e Sabba e next day. John 12:9 Now a great many of e Jews knew at He was ere; and ey came, not for Jesus sake only, but at ey might also see Lazarus, whom He had raised from e dead. But e chief priests plotted to put Lazarus to dea also, because on account of him many of e Jews went away and believed in Jesus. We must point out someing here at almost everyone misses. This Sabba day when Yehshua was brought into e home of Lazarus and all ese people came on e Sabba to see bo Him and Lazarus was in fact e 10 day of e mon when you are to select e lamb and bring it into your home. This is what Mary and Mara and Lazarus did. And so did e crowd at came e next day. They all selected Yehshua. Maew, Mark and Luke have noing about is meeting taking place at e home of Lazarus. All ree of em en begin wi Yehshua coming from Bepage to e Mount of Olives just before Jerusalem. This is now Sunday. It is what has been called Palm Sunday. Continuing in John from where we just left off he says e next day after ese men came to see em at Lazarus s house. John 12:12 The next day a great multitude at had come to e feast, when ey heard at Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him, and cried out: Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in e name of e Lord! The King of Israel! Then Jesus, when He had found a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written: Fear not, daughter of Zion; Behold, your King is coming, Sitting on a donkey s colt. His disciples did not understand ese ings at first; but when Jesus was glorified, en ey remembered at ese ings were written about Him and at ey had done ese ings to Him. Therefore e people, who were wi Him when He called Lazarus out of his tomb and raised him from e dead, bore witness. For is reason e people also met Him, because ey heard at He had done is sign. The Pharisees erefore said among emselves, You see at you are accomplishing noing. Look, e world has gone after Him! 11/15

12 Mark en is going to describe e same ing and en give us anoer bit of information. Mark 11:1 Now when ey drew near Jerusalem, to Bephage and Beany, at e Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples; and He said to em, Go into e village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it. And if anyone says to you, Why are you doing is? say, The Lord has need of it, and immediately he will send it here. So ey went eir way, and found e colt tied by e door outside on e street, and ey loosed it. But some of ose who stood ere said to em, What are you doing, loosing e colt? And ey spoke to em just as Jesus had commanded. So ey let em go. Then ey brought e colt to Jesus and rew eir cloes on it, and He sat on it. And many spread eir cloes on e road, and oers cut down leafy branches from e trees and spread em on e road. Then ose who went before and ose who followed cried out, saying: Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in e name of e Lord! Blessed is e kingdom of our faer David That comes in e name of e Lord! Hosanna in e highest! And Jesus went into Jerusalem and into e temple. So when He had looked around at all ings, as e hour was already late, He went out to Beany wi e twelve. This is Sunday and Yehshua rides in on a colt on is Palm Sunday and en goes up to e Temple and looks around and en leaves going back to Beany because it was already late. Mark en continues and tells us e event of e next day which is now Monday. Mark 11:12 Now e next day, when ey had come out from Beany, He was hungry. And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find someing on it. When He came to it, He found noing but leaves, for it was not e season for figs. In response Jesus said to it, Let no one eat fruit from you ever again. And His disciples heard it. So ey came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into e temple and began to drive out ose who bought and sold in e temple, and overturned e tables of e money changers and e seats of ose who sold doves. And He would not allow anyone to carry wares rough e temple. Then He taught, saying to em, Is it not written, My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations? But you have made it a den of ieves. And e scribes and chief priests heard it and sought how ey might destroy Him; for ey feared Him, because all e people were astonished at His teaching. When evening had come, He went out of e city. 12/15

13 We have now come to e end of e Monday. Mark en goes on to tell us about e events at took place on Tuesday. Mark 11:20 Now in e morning, as ey passed by, ey saw e fig tree dried up from e roots. And Peter, remembering, said to Him, Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has wiered away. So Jesus answered and said to em, Have fai in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to is mountain, Be removed and be cast into e sea, and does not doubt in his heart, but believes at ose ings he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever ings you ask when you pray, believe at you receive em, and you will have em. You can read of all e events at happened at Tuesday in Mark up until Chapter 13. Then we read about Yehshua leaving e Temple and heading back over to e Mount of Olives when He en explains about e end times. Mark 13:1 Then as He went out of e temple, one of His disciples said to Him, Teacher, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here! And Jesus answered and said to him, Do you see ese great buildings? Not one stone shall be left upon anoer, at shall not be rown down. Now as He sat on e Mount of Olives opposite e temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked Him privately, Tell us, when will ese ings be? And what will be e sign when all ese ings will be fulfilled? And Jesus, answering em, began to say: Take heed at no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, I am He, and will deceive many. But when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled; for such ings must happen, but e end is not yet. Mark en goes on to say in Mark 14 at after two days will be Passover. This was on at Tuesday. So we can count 2 days to Thursday when Passover was, and it is two days away. Mark 14:1 After two days it was e Passover and e Feast of Unleavened Bread. And e chief priests and e scribes sought how ey might take Him by trickery and put Him to dea. Maew 26:1 we read e same statement only is time by Yehshua Himself Mat 26:1 Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all ese sayings, at He said to His disciples, You know at after two days is e Passover, and e Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified. Then furer on in Maew 26 we read about em getting ready to keep e Passover and is is still at same Tuesday. 13/15

14 Mat 26:17 Now on e first day of e Feast of e Unleavened Bread e disciples came to Jesus, saying to Him, Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat e Passover? And He said, Go into e city to a certain man, and say to him, The Teacher says, My time is at hand; I will keep e Passover at your house wi My disciples. So e disciples did as Jesus had directed em; and ey prepared e Passover. When evening had come, He sat down wi e twelve. Now as ey were eating, He said, Assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray Me. And ey were exceedingly sorrowful, and each of em began to say to Him, Lord, is it I? I have to take is moment and deviate for one second. Many use is verse to justify keeping Passover on e wrong day. Below is a commentary on is one verse. It is now Tuesday and at Sunset will be e beginning of Wednesday and e Preparation day. Passover is still two days away. Passover will be on e Thursday. The entire 7 Days of Unleavened Bread plus e Preparation day before hand are spoken of as e 8 days of Unleavened Bread or ey are spoken of as e 8 days of Passover.

The feast of unleavened bread followed e passover, and lasted seven days, from e 15 to e 21st of Nisan. Hence e two feasts are sometimes included in e term passover, sometimes in at of unleavened bread. On e evening of 13 of Nisan every head of e family carefully searched for and collected by e light of a candle all e leaven, which was kept and destroyed before midday on e 14. The offering of e lamb took place on e 14 at e evening sacrifice, which on is day commenced at 1.30; or if e preparation fell on a Friday, at The paschal meal was celebrated after sunset on e 14, i. e. strictly on e 15 of Nisan. The events of e Passover are full of difficulty for e harmonist. It is however almost certain at e Last Supper was not e paschal meal, but was partaken of on e 14, at is after sunset on e 13 of Nisan. It is quite certain, from John 18:28, at Jesus was crucified on e preparation, and alough e synoptic narratives seem at first sight to disagree wi is, it is probably only e want of a complete knowledge of e facts at creates e apparent discrepancy. The key verse here is And when evening came, ey sat down to eat is supper meal. But it was not e Passover meal as it was still one day away. Remember before e sunset Yehshua said it was still two days away. This is now Tuesday evening which is e start of e 14 of Nisan. The very day Yehshua is to be killed at e same time e lambs are killed. It is on is fateful Tuesday evening at is now e 14 day of e 1 mon when e lambs are slaughtered at 3 PM in e afternoon, at e chain of events takes place wi His arrest. Saturday Sabba was e 10 day of Nisan. st 14/15

15 Sunday was e 11 day of Nisan Monday was e 12 Day of Nisan Tuesday was e 13 day of Nisan Wednesday was e 14 day of Nisan and e Preparation day of e Passover The Lamb was anointed and examined during e preceding Sabba on Nisan 10. And is final day when e lamb is to be slaughtered, Nisan 14, Pilot will find no fault in him ree times. Sunday was not e 10 day of e mon of Nisan at year. Sabba was. And e Lamb of God was selected and taken in e home of Lazarus, Mara and Mary on e 10 day as were e lambs for Passover at year. Yehshua was taken into e home of people at He loved. When people assume or presume at Sunday is e 10 day because of Yehshua riding on e colt, ey en create e confusion at we presently have. Some peoples inking at because is Sunday was e 10, ey en assume at Yehshua must have been killed on e Thursday. So we go back to e beginning statement. It is is opening statement at causes e deception. In e exact same way at Satan deceived Eve in e Garden Of Eden. Satan does not deny e facts, he just twists em a little to cause doubt and confusion. That opening statement states at Palm Sunday is e 10 day when e Lamb is selected. Therefor e 14 is Thursday. The deception en goes on, having already told you at e 10 day was palm Sunday, to solidify at deception by saying if it was not on Sunday, en would Yehshua ride e colt into Jerusalem on e Sabba. Obviously not. But ey have now presumed and also have you inking at e ride into Jerusalem had to take place on e 10 of Nisan. And by now you have bought into e lie and fallen for e deception and you en have doubts about many ings. Yehshua was selected by Lazarus, Mara and Mary wi e apostles at Sabba evening when He was invited into eir homes. This was e start of Nisan 10 when e lambs are selected. The next morning at very same Sabba many Jews came to examine Him and to meet Lazarus whom He had raised from e dead. Then on e Sunday, Nisan 11, Yehshua rode into e Jerusalem. 15/15
