The Passover Memorial Grace & peace all. Let's take a thorough look @ what Passover is all about and what it means for those who know YAHSHUA to be the Messiah. Open your KJV (King James Version) to Exodus 12 which gives us the ORIGIN of the Passover. PLEASE READ!!! 12:1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying, 12:2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you. 12:3 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house: 12:4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take it according to the number of the souls; every man according to his eating shall make your count for the lamb. 12:5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats: 12:6 And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening. 12:7 And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it. 12:8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. 12:9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof. 12:10 And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire. 12:11 And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is Yahweh's Passover. 12:12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am Yahweh. 12:13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. STOP!!!!! At THIS POINT.....nothing is spoken about a future memorial concerning keeping this event. The first 13 verses we just read was SPECIFICALLY Yah telling Moses what they must do @ THAT exact time in their deliverance from EGYPT. NOW... let's keep reading..... 12:14 And this day shall be unto you for a MEMORIAL; and ye shall KEEP it a feast to Yahweh throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance FOR EVER. 12:15 Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel. 12:16 And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you. 12:17 And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever. 12:18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even. LISTEN! "even" is SPECIFICALLY the time of the going down of the sun. Reference.. 2 Chronicles 18:34 And the battle increased that day: howbeit the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the EVEN: and about the time of the SUN GOING DOWN he died. Leviticus 23:27 Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be a day of atonement: it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto YAHWEH. 32 It shall be unto you a sabbath of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at EVEN, from EVEN unto EVEN, shall ye celebrate your sabbath. It is VERY clear that you begin the fast on the 9th day of the 7th month @ EVEN, the going down of the sun. Deuteronomy 16:6 BUT AT THE PLACE WHICH YAHWEH THY ELOHIM SHALL CHOOSE TO PLACE HIS NAME in, THERE THOU SHALT SACRIFICE THE PASSOVER AT EVEN, AT THE GOING DOWN OF THE SUN, at the season that thou camest forth.. So here, it is plain that "EVEN" is the going down of the sun! CONSIDER! The 15th day of Abib, according to Leviticus 23 (Look it up!) is the FIRST DAY of Unleavened Bread. Then why does it say that you begin to eat Unleavened Bread FROM the 14TH DAY @ EVEN (IT COULD NOT HAVE SAID, 14TH DAY @ EVENING BECAUSE THEN THE 14TH DAY would be the FIRST day of Unleavened Bread. Let's continue... Exodus 12:19 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land. 12:20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread. THIS IS IN A NUTSHELL HOW WE KEEP THE MEMORIAL Y'ALL!!!! Let's mention what is NOT in this passage!!! 1. BARLEY OR NO OTHER GRAIN IS MENTIONED IN THIS MEMORIAL. No one can make any particular grain of bread be mentioned here. ANY type of grain can be made BREAD....BUT for it to be UNLEAVENED bread it must have NO leavening agents. REAL SIMPLE. In reading this we will not add NOR take away from what's written here. Where as barley and other grains were in the state of Abib, the unleavened bread is made from "old store." Nothing new was eaten ESPECIALLY before the waving of the sheaf offering which MANY TIMES (I'll expound on THAT @ another time) was after the Passover observance. 2. Jerusalem or NO other place was mentioned here as far as a place that this memorial IN THE WAY it was described to be observed needed to be held. AGAIN...let's not add nor take away! Let's continue reading!!!!! Exodus 12:21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover. (Notice that in this 21st verse, Yah has ceased to speak of the memorial and has returned to speak SPECIFICALLY about Moses' time that night) 12:2 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning. 12:23 For Yahweh will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, Yahweh will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you. ----UH OH....WATCH THIS!!!!!!!------- 12:24 And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever. 12:25 And it shall come to pass, WHEN YE BE COME TO THE LAND WHICH YAHWEH GIVE YOU, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service. 12:26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service? 12:27 That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of Yahweh's passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped. 12:28 And the children of Israel went away, and did as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they. CONCERNING THE SACRIFICE ....WE WERE TO DO THIS "FOREVER" in the land that Yah gave us. THERE IS A DISTINCT DIFFERENCE HERE IN THE PASSOVER MEMORIAL of Unleavened Bread which was not bounded by a geographical location and the SACRIFICES which were to be specifically done in the land!!!!!! It is very important that we understand the proper context of everything we read because some things were speaking directly in reference to our being a nation IN the land, and since we were obviously observing the memorial of Passover by the unleavened bread in the EGYPT (captivity), and that we were to do it forever, this is quite a bit different from the sacrifices which we are going to read again as something to be done ONLY in a specific place. Deuteronomy 16:1 Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto Yahweh thy Elohim: for in the month of Abib Yahweh thy Elohim brought thee forth out of Egypt by night. 16:2 Thou shalt therefore SACRIFICE THE PASSOVER unto Yahweh thy Elohim, of the flock and the herd, IN THE PLACE WHICH YAHWEH SHALL CHOOSE to place his name there. 16:3 Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life. 16:4 And there shall be no leavened bread seen with thee in all thy coast seven days; neither shall there any thing of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst the first day at even, remain all night until the morning. 16:5 Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which Yahweh thy Elohim giveth thee: 16:6 BUT AT THE PLACE WHICH YAHWEH THY ELOHIM SHALL CHOOSE TO PLACE HIS NAME in, THERE THOU SHALT SACRIFICE THE PASSOVER AT EVEN, AT THE GOING DOWN OF THE SUN, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt. ----Is it clear here that the ordinance of the SACRIFICING of the Passover... just as YAHSHUA IS OUR PASSOVER,...IS OUR ATONEMENT... was sacrificed in the place where Yahweh chose to place his name there???---- The sacrifices are separate from how we are to keep the Passover MEMORIAL of Unleavened Bread forever. Let's keep reading.... To give you a heads up, you are about to read again the only place where we can eat of the tithe sacrifices and offerings which were offered through the Levitical priesthood. Deuteronomy 12:5 But unto the place which Yahweh your Elohim shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come: 12:6 And thither ye shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and heave offerings of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstlings of your herds and of your flocks: 12:7 And there ye shall eat before Yahweh your Elohim, and ye shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your households, wherein Yahweh thy Elohim hath blessed thee. 12:8 Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes. 12:9 For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which Yahweh your Elohim giveth you. 12:10 But when ye go over Jordan, and dwell in the land which Yahweh your Elohim giveth you to inherit, and when he giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety; 12:11 Then there shall be a place which Yahweh your Elohim shall choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye bring all that I command you; your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto Yahweh: 12:12 And ye shall rejoice before Yahweh your Elohim, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants, and your maidservants, and the Levite that is within your gates; forasmuch as he hath no part nor inheritance with you. 12:13 Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in every place that thou seest: 12:14 But in the place which Yahweh shall choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I command thee. Again this was ONLY speaking of eating of the offerings and sacrifices which were offeres by the Levitical priesthood. Nothing reads that the observance of the MEMORIAL of Passover was LIMITED to "the place where Yah shall choose to set his name there" Joshua 5:10 And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho. 5:11 And they did eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened cakes, and parched corn in the selfsame day. 5:12 And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year. My point is that here Israel have not quite gotten to Jerusalem but they are still keeping the Passover MEMORIAL. Here you see corn is mentioned. Barley or wheat is STILL not mentioned here and even as the corn is MENTIONED...it was not a requirement as the Unleavened bread and BITTER herbs were. John 4:20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 4:21 Yahshua saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 4:22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 4:24 Elohim is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. With Yahshua BEING THE PASSOVER, BEING THE ATONEMENT, HAVING SHED HIS BLOOD, ...Jerusalem is fulfilled in that!!! We do not need to be in Jerusalem because we are NOT sacrificing a lamb or any other animal. Yahshua's death suspended the Levitical priesthood. HE IS our Passover, our Atonement! Luke 22:8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. 22:9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? --- What were they doing??? Preparing the Passsover!!!! Which Passover?? The Passover that we keep today. Even though we KNOW that Yahshua had to die @ the time that the Passover lambs were being killed, he was showing the disciples that HE was the PASSOVER lamb as he was to be killed in Jerusalem and THIS IS HOW we are to keep the MEMORIAL... the Unleavened Bread (bread without sin, wickedness and malice represented HIS BODY!!!) Luke 22:14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 22:15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to EAT THIS PASSOVER with you before I suffer: 22:16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of Elohim. 22:17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: 22:18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of Elohim shall come. 22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. --- Believe what you want but THIS was the Passover Memorial that they were during on the 14TH DAY OF Abib even though, it was at the BEGINNING of the day of Preparation. Again I can't stress enough that the physical lamb as well as our being in Jerusalem was about to be no longer a consequence in keeping the Passover MEMORIAL. 1 Corinthians 11:23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Yahshua the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: 11:24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 11:25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. 11:26 FOR AS OFTEN AS YE EAT THIS BREAD, AND DRINK THIS CUP YE DO SHEW THE MASTER'S DEATH TIL HE COME! For how long do ye MEMORIALIZE THE PASSOVER LAMB??? The Torah had already told us how long. Finally... 1 Corinthians 5:6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even the Messiah our PASSOVER is sacrificed for us: 5:8 Therefore LET US KEEP THE FEAST, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
