21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. II Peter 1:21 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: II Timothy 3:16

Before we can continue we first all need to get on the same page regarding Some fundamentals around God’s Time. Shavuot – Feast of Weeks In order to understand the counting of the Omer and the days allocated to the spring feasts we need to take a closer look at some definitions that scripture defines around this. Order of Events: In Order to understand the pattern of the events we need to look at how it was defined by God’s instruction in the Torah (Law) when the Hebrews left Egypt.

Creation Week Genesis 1: In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. It is important to note that God’s Day Start with Evening And Ends with Morning. In layman’s terms it means Sunset to Sunset. This establishes the Pattern on which all Feast Counts should be counted. FEAST: 04150: 4150 mow`ed mo-ade' or moled mo-ade'; or (feminine) moweadah (2 Chronicles 8:13) mo-aw-daw'; from 3259; properly, an appointment, i.e. a fixed time or season; specifically, a festival; conventionally a year; by implication, an assembly (as convened for a definite purpose); technically the congregation; by extension, the place of meeting; also a signal (as appointed beforehand):--appointed (sign, time), (place of, solemn) assembly, congregation, (set, solemn) feast, (appointed, due) season, solemn(-ity), synogogue, (set) time (appointed). see HEBREW for 03259

First we have the Sabbath Day defined Leviticus 23: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts. 3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the Sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings. We keep THE Sabbath on the SEVENTH DAY from Friday Evening until Saturday Evening as per the Pattern that was established in the Creation Week. It is important to note that THE Sabbath is fixed on the Seventh Day and there is NO WORK permitted on the THE Sabbath. It is also Interesting that THE Sabbath is defined on it’s own among the other Feasts of the Lord. Other Feast Days are also called a Holy Convocation and even Sabbath and High Sabbath’s, but there is a clear distinction on the Sabbath of Rest, the Seventh Day.

Check Point Before we continue: It is important at this point to clearly understand the pattern that was established. If you are not 100% sure, rather repeat the first section until you have a clear understanding before continuing.

Passover Leviticus 23: 5 5 In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD'S Passover. The Feast of Passover is a big subject on it’s own and will be looked at separately. You can read more about this in Exodus 12 or Leviticus 23 Important for this exercise is to note that the Passover Lamb is slain on the evening of the 14 th of the Month. Other words the just before the start of the 15 th day is Passover according to Scripture. Important to understand that the Passover sacrifice was done on the 14 th just before the start of the 15 th day. The Passover meal was eaten on the 15 th the first day of Unleavened bread.

Unleavened Bread Leviticus 23: In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD'S Passover. 6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the LORD: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread. 7 In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. 8 But ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD seven days: in the seventh day is an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. Unleavened bread starts on the 15 th day of the Month. Exodus12: 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. 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. Also Refer to Leviticus 12 The Feast of unleavened bread starts Evening of the 14 th Day thus the start of the 15 th of the Month.

Unleavened Bread Scripture states that the Feast of Unleavened bread will start on the Evening of the 14 th (Meaning the Start of the 15 th Day – as God’s days start at evening and end at Morning. In order to understand this correctly it is best to always refer back to the original writings. It is dangerous to use a translation as your only source, you may end up with a interpreted version of what is actually written. Exodus 12 : 18 You will note that the scripture in translated correctly: in the evening of 14th day thus not the evening of the 13 th which is the start of the 14 th day, but the evening of the 14 th day which is the beginning of the 15 th day.

Unleavened Bread Thought: It is interesting to note that there is nowhere in scripture that it refers to Pesach (Passover) as a Sabbath day, however it is a day of Holy Convocation (High Sabbath). Why would that be? The First Day of Unleavened bread is also on the 15 th of the Month. Thus the Day of Passover and the First Day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread is on the same day. The First and the last days of the Feast Of Unleavened Bread are Holy Sabbath Days. Thus making the Passover Day of the 15 th also a Sabbath Day. Using the pattern that we have already established, lets take a closer look At the Week of the Unleavened Bread.

Exodus12:18 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.

14 Evening (Start 15 th Day) = Passover Lamb + Unleavened Bread (14 6pm – 15 6pm) = 1 st Day) 15 Evening (Start 16 th Day) = Unleavened Day 1 (Sabbath) 16 Evening (Start 17 th Day) = Unleavened Day 2 17 Evening (Start 18 th Day) = Unleavened Day 3 18 Evening (Start 19 th Day) = Unleavened Day 4 19 Evening (Start 20 th Day) = Unleavened Day 5 20 Evening (Start21st Day) = Unleavened Day 6 21 Evening (Start22nd Day) = Unleavened Day 7 (Sabbath) 14 th Evening = Start of 15 th Day { Evening to Evening or Sunset to Sunset = 1 Day { { { { { Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 { Day 7 Summary: Evening of 14 th before 15 th Lamb is slain Evening of 14 th (15 th ) Passover Meal with Unleavened Bread (Sabbath) Day 1 Evening of 14 th (15 th Night – 1 st Born is Slain) Early Morning of 15 th Burn Left Over's and Exit from Egypt (Still Day 1 till Evening) Passover and Unleavened based on the Exodus Conclusion: Passover Seder and Unleavened bread both start on the 15 th and not on the 14 th as the Evening of the 14 th is the start of the 15 th day. ALL SCRIPTURE TIES BACK TO THIS IN HARMONY BOTH OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT

Supporting Scriptures: Leviticus 23: In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD'S Passover. 6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the LORD: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread. 7 In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. 8 But ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD seven days: in the seventh day is an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. Exodus 12: 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. 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. Old Testament: New Testament: Matthew 26: Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the Passover? Mark 14: 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? Numbers 9: Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season. 3 In the fourteenth day of this month, at even, ye shall keep it in his appointed season: according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies thereof, shall ye keep it. Luke 22: 7 7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.

First Fruits Leviticus 23: Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest: 11 And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it. We need to determine what day the Sabbath was for the sheaf was waved the next day after the Sabbath. Important Note: Nowhere in scripture is it referring to the first or the last day’s of the feast of unleavened bread as Sabbath’s, only Holy convocations. Further to this it is stating that you are allowed to do work on these days in preparation of food that is not allowed on THE Sabbath (Seventh Day). We therefore must be referring to THE Sabbath as the Actual weekly Sabbath. In addition God is very clear with His instructions, it is man that complicates things through intellectual reasoning. Every Feast of Unleavened Bread will have an actual Sabbath in it. I am pretty sure God Knows this. Finally it also fits the pattern of Yeshua being the First Fruits.

First Fruits John 20:15 15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away. Is it perhaps because He seemed like a gardener busy collecting His Sheaf for the Wave Offering? One does not just presume somebody in a garden is a gardener unless he is busy attending to the garden in some way. Additional Food for Thought: Just a thought! (Please Don’t Quote me on this as fact – until confirmation is received) Mary thought Yeshua (Jesus) was the Gardener! Why?

First Fruits Matthew 28:1 1 In the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. Based on the information supplied in Matthew 1 we now know the following: It was at the end of THE Sabbath (Weekly Sabbath) Began to Dawn toward the First Day of the Week (Sunday) NOTE, it is not yet Sunday, Yeshua was resurrected on the Third Day not the Fourth which would be Sunday. With this information we can no apply it to the pattern. Let’s apply the pattern that we have used so far to the crucifixion and see If it fits the claims:

First Fruit Wave Offer Daniel 9: And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. 27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. Cut off in the midst of the Week

Crucifixion Thoughts Yeshua Passover Meal with His Disciples. Yeshua was crucified on the 14 th of Nissan at evening (12pm – 3pm), exactly at the appointed time for the Lamb to be sacrificed according to scripture. The Passover lambs were killed between the 9 th and the 11 th hour. Yeshua died at the 9 th hour. This would imply that Yeshua had the Passover meal with His disciples on the Evening of the 13 th which is the 14 th. This kind of make sense if you think about it. Him being the sacrifice would not be able to partake of the Passover with His disciples on the day of Passover due to the fact that He was crucified on that day. John 18: Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover. John 19: The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

Shavuot Leviticus 23: And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete: 16 Even unto the morrow after the seventh Sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the LORD. 17 Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; they are the firstfruits unto the LORD. We have determined the day the Wave Offer took place as the 20 th April 2014 according to the instructions in Torah (Law): We now need to count the Omer: 50 Days from that day (Wave Offering) 7 Complete Sabbaths (Seventh Day) in the count The day after the 7 th Sabbath should be count 50.

What we should see: Count Start on day After Sabbath (Sheaf Wave) 20 April 2014 Count 50 Should end on a day after Sabbath Should see 7 complete Sabbaths in count Start Counting 50 Even 7 th June – Even 8 th June

Closing Thoughts God’s Word is True. These Feast's are called the feasts of YHVH and not the feast of the Jews. We need to understand God’s appointed times, especially in the times we live in. May God bless you and keep you, May God’s will be done! Amen.
