SIMPLE proof that Passover and First Day of Unleavened Bread are SAME DAY!
Passover is the First Day of Unleavened Bread!

Passover is an Annual Holyday!

Many think the Passover is NOT the First Day of Unleavened – one of the Annual Holydays listed in Leviticus 23. However, it is SIMPLE to prove that it is.

Read Exodus 12.18 carefully. It is the KEY verse NOT mentioned by supposed authoritative Bible courses and books. Wonder why? To keep people from seeing that the Carpenter from Nazareth was literally and historically FULFILLING the FIRST Annual Holyday, the Passover, as our "Passover" and the Messiah, and thereby setting a PRECEDENT that EACH Annual Holyday thereafter was going to be fulfilled literally and historically? Notice Exodus 12.18:

"In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty-first day of the month at evening."

Notice it says "until" the 21st day "at evening". In the Bible, days begin in the "evening" at sunset (Gen 1.5, 8, 13, 19, 23, 31; Lev 22.6-7; Gen 15.12, 17-18). So "until" means until the 21st day begins, at sunset. This means that the 20th day is the LAST (7th) Day of Unleavened Bread, a Holyday. Then, counting backwards 7 days, the FIRST Day of Unleavened Bread (a Holyday) is the 14th day. Of course, we know that the Passover is observed on the 14th day. Perhaps the diagram below will show how obvious it is that the 14th day, Passover, is the First Day of Unleavened Bread, a Holyday.

Other scriptures supporting this are found at Ex 12.6, 12, 14, 17, 19, 31, 41-43, 51; Mk 14.1, 12; Lk 22.1, 7; 1 Cor 5.7-8.

There is now NO EXCUSE for believing Passover and the First Day of Unleavened Bread are 2 separate days. And Ex 12.8 and Num 9.11 command that unleavened bread is to be eaten on the 14th day, so it is included in the 7 days of unleavened bread!

Passover, obviously, is the First Day of Unleavened Bread – a Holyday!

Anyone who can count backwards from 7 to 1 can figure this out!

Furthermore, this SIMPLE TRUTH leads next us to a VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION.

Since the Messiah’s death as “Our Passover” (1 Cor 5.7-8) sets a PRECEDENT for the LITERAL FULFILLMENT of the Old Testament Holyday archetypes, what LITERAL event in the New Testament is connected with the 2nd Annual Holyday, the “LAST Day of Unleavened Bread”?

If you follow the sequence of the 7 Annual Holydays as laid out in Leviticus 23, you would expect this 2nd LITERAL EVENT to occur AFTER the Messiah’s death (1st Holyday) and BEFORE Pentecost (3rd Holyday).

Many believe Pentecost was FULFILLED in Acts 2, when the Holy Spirit miraculously descended upon the 12 apostles in Jerusalem on the Feast of Pentecost 50 days after the Messiah’s resurrection.

However, since there is no mention in Scripture of anything big happening between the Messiah’s death and Acts 2, then the 2nd Holyday is YET to be fulfilled, and, consequently, so is Pentecost!

This is tremendously GOOD NEWS which should be proclaimed to the entire world in great POWER!

Why? Because in the Old Testament, the 2nd Annual Holyday archetype is connected with the miraculous DELIVERANCE of God’s People from their enemies at the Red Sea (Ex 14-15), and with their VICTORY over their enemies at the Battle of Jericho (Joshua 5.10-6.20).

'''Are we today on the verge of a LITERAL miraculous New Testament event that fulfills the Old Testament archetype of the 2nd Annual Holyday? Is this event mentioned in the Bible?'''

If you want to learn HOW, WHEN and WHERE this literal event 2nd Holyday event will occur in the very near future, and HOW this will quickly lead to a literal “nation of priests” that fulfills PENTECOST, the 3rd Annual Holyday, just go to for more details on this awesome GOOD NEWS!.

In the first century, the religious authorities’s focus on the 4th Annual Holyday (Feast of Trumpets) blinded them to the literal fulfillment of the 1st Annual Holyday - Passover. Let’s not make the same mistake today, and miss out on the literal fulfillment of the 2nd Annual Holyday!

Not seeing that the Passover is a HOLYDAY is the “blindspot” that is hiding the truth of the LITERALNESS of EACH Annual Holyday. Exodus 12.18 is the KEY to unlock that blindness!
