with Yeshua crucified on Wednesday
Thursday or Friday it's time to unlearn
the lies hey welcome to unlearn my name
is Lex and I'd like to invite you to
join us each week as we search out
biblical truth together and unlearn the
lies we've inherited now let's get
started I've been both humbled and
challenged by the topic of Passover this
year I'm always telling people that we
need to set aside our preconceived ideas
and let the Bible speak for itself we
need to let the Bible interpret itself
and stop trying to force it to fit our
dogmas however this year I realized that
I have been looking at the events of the
crucifixion week through a lens of
dogmatic interpretation instead of
simply believing what the Bible says I
was trying to fit a square peg into a
round hole and I was trying so hard to
get it to fit that I began to round off
the edges in a stubborn attempt to
uphold my own assumptions there were
four basic assumptions that were
affecting my understanding of these
events number one I assumed that the
church was wrong about a Friday
crucifixion number two I assumed the
sign of Jonah required 72 hours in the
grave number three I assumed that Yeshua
had to die at the same time as the
Passover lambs for him to be our
Passover and there before because of
these previous assumptions I also
assumed that Wednesday crucifixion was
correct
however these assumptions were requiring
me to ignore and distort a number of
verses in the Gospels to fit my
preconceived ideas but my desire is to
be honest with the biblical text and I
don't want to be guilty of ignoring or
dismissing anything in the Bible it's
easy for us to get an idea into our head
and then modify our understanding of the
text to fit our theory I'm trying my
best to set aside any preconceived ideas
that I might have so that I can better
understand what the Bible is telling us
as a result I have been forced to take
another look at the crucifixion timeline
and I invite you to do the same
the Wednesday crucifixion requires us to
ignore certain facts and cast doubts
about the Last Supper being Passover
which in turn forces us to ignore or
dismiss or twist certain text to fit our
theory if we simply let the Bible
interpret itself we have no need to
speculate about these things and we have
no need to invent theories to try to
explain why the Bible says things that
seem to contradict our dogmas the
Gospels tell us that on the first day of
unleavened bread
Yeshua told his disciples to prepare the
Passover so that he could eat it with
him this was the preparation day for the
Passover now the first day of the feast
of unleavened bread the disciples came
to issue a saying unto Him where wilt
thou that we prepare for thee to eat the
Passover and he said go into a city to
such a man and say to him
the master saith my time is at hand I
will keep the Passover at thy house with
my disciples and the disciples did as
Yahshua had appointed them and they may
ready the Passover and the first day of
unleavened bread when they killed the
Passover his disciples said unto Him
where wilt thou that we go and prepare
that thou mayest eat the Passover and he
sendeth forth two of his disciples and
saith unto them go ye into the city and
there shall meet you a man bearing a
pitcher of water follow him and
wheresoever he shall go in say ye to the
good man of the house the master saith
where is the guest chamber where I shall
eat the Passover with my disciples and
when he show you a large upper room
furnished and prepared there make ready
for us and his disciples went forth and
came into the city and found it as he
had said unto them and they made ready
the Passover then came the day of
unleavened bread when the Passover must
be killed and they sent Peter and John
saying go and prepare us the Passover
that we may eat and they said unto Him
where wilt thou that we prepare and he
said unto them behold when you interest
it into the city
there shall a man meet you bearing a
pitcher of water follow him into the
house where he entered in and ye shall
say unto the good man of the house the
master saith unto thee where is the
guest chamber where I shall eat the
Passover with my disciples and he shall
show you a large upper room furnished
there make ready and they went and found
it as he had said unto them and they
made ready the Passover and when the
hour was come he sat down and the Twelve
Apostles with him and he said unto them
with desire I have desired to eat this
Passover with you before I suffer for I
saying to you I will not anymore
eat thereof until it be fulfilled in the
kingdom of Yahweh here we see three
witnesses who testify that Yeshua ate
the Passover with his disciples at that
house there is no reason to question
this this is firmly established in
Scripture there is no reason to try to
reinterpret it Yeshua
ate the Passover with his disciples then
later that night after they ate the
Passover he was arrested and placed on
trial then the Gospels tell us that on
the preparation day for the Sabbath he
was crucified this cannot be the
preparation day for Passover because
Yahshua and the disciples just ate
Passover
therefore this had to be the preparation
day for the weekly Sabbath and now when
the even was come because it was the
preparation that is the day before the
Sabbath and he took it down and wrapped
it in linen and laid it in a Sepulchre
that was hewn in stone wherein never a
man before was lain and that day was the
preparation and the sabbath drew on and
the women also which came with him from
Galilee followed after and beheld the
sepulchre and how the body was laid and
they returned and prepared spices and
ointments and rested on the sabbath day
according to the commandment the Jews
therefore because it was the preparation
that the body should not remain upon the
stake on the Sabbath day
for that Sabbath day was a high day
besought Pilate that their legs might be
broken
and that they might be taken away John
says it was the preparation day of the
Passover which simply indicates that it
was the preparation day for the Sabbath
during Passover week it was basically
saying it was the Friday during the
Passover celebration and it was the
preparation day of the Passover and
about the sixth hour and he saith unto
the Jews behold your king finally after
the sabbath was passed he was
resurrected on the first day of the week
and the Gospels tell us this was the
third day thus fulfilling the sign of
Jonah but we trusted that it had been he
which should have redeemed Israel and
beside all this today is the third day
since these things were done
Yeshua ate the Passover with his
disciples on Thursday night and he said
to them do this in remembrance of me
he died on Friday the preparation day
for the Sabbath completing the work he
came to do and he said it is finished
echoing back to the creation week when
Yahweh finished his work on the sixth
day and rested on the Sabbath after
resting on the Sabbath Yeshua rose from
the dead on the third day as the
firstfruits of the resurrection when we
let the Bible interpret itself then all
the pieces line up and there's no reason
to doubt or question anything the Bible
explains the sign of Jonah saying that
he rose on Sunday the third day since
his crucifixion on Friday the Bible
never says it had to be 72 hours if he
had died on Wednesday then Sunday would
have been the fourth or fifth day
depending on if you count Wednesday as
day one or if you wait to count Thursday
as day one in either case Sunday would
not be the third day the Bible explains
that Yeshua died on the preparation day
for the Sabbath to say he died on
Wednesday then we have to say he that he
died on the preparation date for the
Passover which would mean that he could
not have eaten Passover with his
disciples the night before so to hold
that view we must either ignore the fact
that the Last Supper was Passover or we
have to invent theories to twist the
Scriptures into saying something else
Paul says that Yeshua is our Passover
but that does not mean he had to die at
the exact moment the Lambs were being
killed he was killed at the time of
Passover during the week of Passover but
more importantly it was the function of
his death
that is important his death was like
that of the Passover because his death
brings us freedom from bondage the Bible
also compares his death to the Yom
Kippur atonement sacrifice but he did
not die on Yom Kippur the only way this
makes sense is if we look at the
function and not be dogmatic about the
exact timing I agree that we need to
reject unbiblical doctrines and
traditions however we need to make sure
we are not creating our own new dogmas
that are not based on Scripture now it's
