AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 26:17 ¶ Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread (Passover Week) the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?" [Mark 14:12-16; Luke 22:7-13] |
Bible Question (short): Unleavened Bread Prior to Passover? |
Question (full): In Leviticus the Lord's Passover is said to be the 14th day of the first month, and is followed by the 7 day long Feast of Unleavened Bread beginning on the 15th day of the first month. In Matt 26:17, the disciples ask Jesus where He wants them to prepare for the Passover meal, but it is already the first day of Unleavened Bread. How can this be? It seems the feast days are in the wrong order. Thank you in advance for your reply. |
