Passover

Luke 22:1: Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.
Exodus 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 forever. Exodus 12:26: And it shall come to pass, when your
children shall say unto you, what mean ye by this service? Verse 27: That ye shall say, it is the
sacrifice of the LORDs 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. The Passover is a day that honors the deliverance of the 12 tribes of Israel from
Egypt which is in Africa. The name Passover refers to the blood the Most High required we put
upon the two side posts of our doors and passed over our houses when he sent the plaque of
death upon all the first born. (Exodus 12:12-13, 21-23). Exodus 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 the LORD. It was during
this turbulent time of fear that the Most High proved to Egypt and his chosen people the
Israelites that all the Egyptian gods were false idols. For example when he smote the Nile with
blood he proved that there is no Nile god named Sobek neither a sun god called Ra when he
made darkness for three days. Even Moses who at one time had to learn all the false idol gods of
Egypt- ACTS 7:22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty
in words and in deeds. Moses had to be re-taught and repent of all the lies of Khem (Africa) to be
an effective of Israel. Hebrews 11: 24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be
called the son of Pharaohs daughter; Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God,
than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches
than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward. By faith he
forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.

The Feast of Unleavened Bread is called after the event that occurred to our fathers in
Egypt. Exodus 12:30: And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the
Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one
dead. Verse 31: And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, and get you
forth from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as ye
have said. Verse 32: Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone; and
bless me also. Verse 33: And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send
them out of the land in haste; for they said, we be all dead men. Verse 34: And the people took
their dough before it was leavened, their kneading troughs being bound up in their clothes upon
their shoulders. Passover is always kept in the spring season which is the first month of Abib.
The word Abib means ear of corn which refers to the spring season when corn sprouts. Exodus
34:18: The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened
bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month Abib thou camest
out from Egypt. Exodus 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. The
Heavenly Father gave us strict commandment of how to observe his feast. He commanded us not
to eat anything leavened. 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. Verse 20: Ye shall eat
nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread. He also commanded us
to observe the 1st and 7th as solemn Sabbath days. Exodus 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. It was also commanded that we take a lamb and sacrifice it for the Passover.
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. But now Christ has become
that lamb without blemish for Israel. Through him we shall receive deliverance from our sins and
bondage as our fathers did from Egypt. The Passover/Feast of Unleavened bread is meant to be
kept forever. The Apostle Paul even kept it in Greece, in the faith of Christ. Acts 20:6: And we
sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and came unto them to Troas in
five days; where we abode seven days. Paul further instructed the Israelite church in
Corinth/Greece to keep the Passover. 1st Corinthians 5:7: Purge out therefore the old leaven
that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for
us: Verse 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. Jeremiah 16:14:
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said, The LORD
liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; Verse 15: But, The
LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the
lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto
their fathers. Proving even in the kingdom we will celebrate the Passover however we wont be
talking about deliverance from Egypt but rather our deliverance from the land of the North,
North America.

The Observation of the Passover Congregate with fellow believing Israelites and with
your families. It is very important that your wives and children be taught the meaning of the
Passover, read Exodus 12:3-4. The Passover meal consists of Lamb or Goat (read Exodus 12:5),
Bitter Herbs, Unleavened Bread (Exodus 12:8) and Wine (Matthew 26:18-19, 26-29). How the
Passover meal is to be prepared: The Lamb or Goat must be roasted with fire, read Exodus 12:9,
Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water (meaning the Lamb or Goat must not be cooked
in water with seasoning), but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the appurtenance
thereof. The Lamb or Goat must be cooked / roasted whole, because the bones are not to be
broken, read Exodus 12:46. If it is possible that you can fulfill this scriptures then do so, if not,
then get the meat in small pieces (Judges 5:11), and roast the Passover meal. For the Unleavened
Bread, Matzos can be used. For the Bitter Herbs, any plant in the Lettuce family can be used.
The last thing is the Wine; the children can have grape juice. Note: If the Passover falls on the
regular Sabbath (Friday to Saturday sundown), then it must be cooked on that day to keep the
Passover. The ordinances state that the Passover meal must be prepared on that day. The
Passover is the ONLY High Holy Day that if it falls on the regular Sabbath, cooking is allowed.
The Passover service: Have a small service, beginning and ending with the reading of the Lords
Prayer, Matthew 6:9-13. Read the scriptures pertaining to the Passover, Leviticus 23:5-8, Psalms
chapter 105 and 106, Matthew 26:7-13, Matthew 26:26-29, I Corinthians 5:7-13 and Exodus
12:1-11 (explanation of the Passover meal). Before eating, send up a prayer to bless the food and
drinks. The Passover is to be celebrated with gladness and mirth. Music and games can be played
for this festival celebration. No BUYING or SELLING is allowed on the Passover. Therefore, all
food must be purchased the day before. If possible, try to get off from work along with your
children from school. These are days to be taken in order to honor the Most High.

The Observation of the Feast of Unleavened Bread

All products containing leaven (yeast) must be taken out of the household. The first and the last
days are holy convocations. Therefore, no Buying or Selling is permitted. The Closing Service:
Have a small service, beginning and ending with the reading of the Lords Prayer, Matthew 6:9-
13. Read the scriptures pertaining to The Feast of Unleavened Bread, Leviticus 23:5-8. Before
eating, send up a prayer to bless the food and drinks. The Feast of Unleavened Bread is to be
celebrated with gladness and mirth. This concludes the end of the celebration of the feast.
