AMPLIFIED 2015 | Daniel 9:21 while I was still speaking in prayer and extremely exhausted, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the earlier vision, came to me about the time of the evening sacrifice. [Dan 8:16] |
Bible Question: What time was evening sacrfice,and what happened at it? I'm wondering if evening sacrfice was happening at the time of Christs death. |
Bible Answer: Greetings and welcome to the forum. The sacrifice was at 3:00 Jewish time and it was the Passover feast which took place on the 14Th of Nisan. The Passover lamb was to be picked out on the 10th of Nisan which that year was a Sunday, the day that Jesus came riding into Jerusalem on the foal. He was literally picked that day and four days later at exactly time of 3:00 o’clock He was sacrificed as the perfect lamb of God. The next day was a high Sabbath not a regular Saturday Sabbath as many think so it was mandatory that he be taken down and buried by 6:00 o’clock, in what we would call the evening but to the Jews it was the 15th of Nisan in the morning and the beginning of the feast of unleavened bread which lasted for seven days. Jesus was already dead on Wednesday and was in the earth as He stated for three day and nights. The first Sunday during the feast of unleavened bread contained a feast within a feast, and on Sunday Jesus arose from the grave during the feast of first fruits; Jesus Himself is the first fruit from the dead. The feast represented the spring feast of the barley pointing to the fact that the latter rain feast or the fall feast was to be the wheat harvest and much larger of which all believers will be a part. All of the feast, demanded by God in Lev. 23, point to the work that God would perform in the person of His Son. The first four were accomplished at Christ’s first coming and the last three feasts will be completed at His second coming. The next spring feast was the feast of weeks or Shavuot which was seventy times seven or 49 days with the celebration being of the 50th day and referred to as Pentecost. These four feast where in the spring and tied in with the former rains. When Christ returns it will be as the latter rains and the remaining feast will be fulfilled. Hosea 6:3 Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth. I hope this helps and I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |
