Jesus was the Passover Lamb, sacrificed for us as an Offering for all of the world's sins. He ate the Passover supper with the Apostles on Tuesday night (Wednesday morning on the Hebrew calendar) better known as the Last Supper. He was betrayed, accused, scourged, tried, crucified, mocked and died at 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon (still Wednesday on the Hebrew calendar.) He rose from the dead 3 days and 3 nights later, on the Saturday Sabbath, between 3 and 6 o'clock, fulfilling the sign of Jonah.
The roman catholics have us celebrating "Easter," The Resurrection, on the wrong day of the week. I wonder why?
Not sure it matters WHEN we celebrate it's happening, but THAT we celebrate it's happening and rejoice fully in it.
The Truth of God's Word goes hand and hand with the history of His creation. The correct history.
I realize the truth is best ... but the recognition and celebration is what is important. Does it matter if you have the exact day if you're not celebrating it or recognizing the miracle?
I know what day Kwanza is, but I do not celebrate it or even know what it means. I don't celebrate Cinco De Mayo or St. Patrick's day either. I know what days they are and why other people celebrate them, but I do not. (And actually ... Cinco De Mayo isn't the right day to celebrate what people think it's for, either.) Why? Because I don't care. That's the difference.
If you're witnessing to those who do not know the miracle ... you tell them the miracle, amaze them with His glory, His love and His forgiveness. Some time after they understand, then mention the day we celebrate the miracle ... and maybe how "we don't know the exact day, but ... this is when we all get together, sing goofy songs, wear ugly sweaters, eat lots of sweets, kill an evergreen and truly thank him for what he has done for us."
I would LOVE to know the absolute specifics of everything about The Lord. But it's literally IMPOSSIBLE until we meet Him in person and He makes us more than "man". Until then, I celebrate Him .... every day.
Don't get all caught up in semantics and details. That's leftist shit.
No it's not. Greater understanding of the Word of God comes with a historical application of it. What percentage of the population even knows what Passover really is, besides some Jewish feast? Now, if you know the customs and rituals behind it, like choosing a lamb without spot or blemish for your sacrifice and examining it, to make sure, for 3 days before you slaughter it. This is the Jewish custom. On Palm Saturday (lol, but true) when Christ rode into Jerusalem on the colt (or ass) the people of Jerusalem chose their Lamb, Hosanna the Highest. For the next three days, the pharisees hounded Jesus, examining Him before the people. The people decided He was worthy to be slaughtered.
Staring at an easter basket won't bring you to the understanding of such things. How much more is buried, waiting for us to learn?
Exactly.
Very interesting. Where can I look to find information on this?

The reason Easter is after Passover is because It’s Holy Week that coincides with Passover and the particulars of the Jewish Lunar Calendar where days start at sundown and the Roman Solar Calendar where days start at Midnight.
The last supper was the Passover Seder and was on Holy Thursday Night/Good Friday and Christ rose on Sunday. In the Jewish Calendar it happens on the first full moon after the first new moon after the spring equinox. The celebration of Easter was decided to be on Sunday so it made sense to make sure Good Friday landed on or after Passover. That puts Easter after Passover.
The reason the Roman Catholic Church uses the Roman Solar Calendar instead of the Biblical Lunar Calendar? Have you ever even considered there may be some truth to Roman Catholicism being veiled sun worship, paganism with Christian trappings?
Easter is celebrated on a day specified only by the Roman Catholic Church, and not the Bible, and is fixed based on the sun and the Spring or Vernal equinox.
This is the reason Easter is after Passover.
The scriptures do not say that Jesus rose on the first day of the week, they say he was risen.
Mark 16:9 KJV “Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week,
Just put a comma in between "risen" and "early" and it makes it perfectly clear, even without the comma.

so many believe the lie. Good to see that you have eyes to see and ears to hear.
Now we celebrate Easter the first Sunday after the first full moon after the equinox.
