So, on the evening of the 14th day of the first month (Nisan) you will begin eating bread without yeast. You will eat this bread until the evening of the 21st day of the same month.
The first holiday will be the Festival of Unleavened Bread. This is like I commanded you. At this time you will eat bread that is made without yeast. This will continue for seven days. You will do this during the month of Abib, [146] because this is the time when you came out of Egypt. Every person must bring a sacrifice to me at that time.
“Celebrate the Festival of Unleavened Bread. For seven days eat that bread made without yeast like I commanded you before. Do this during the month I have chosen, the month of Abib. [346] Why? Because that is the month you came out of Egypt.
On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, {\cf2\super [399]} the followers came to Jesus. The followers said, “We will prepare everything for you to eat the Passover {\cf2\super [400]} meal. Where do you want us to have the meal?”
“You know that the day after tomorrow is Passover. {\cf2\super [391]} On that day the Son of Man {\cf2\super [392]} will be given \{to his enemies\} to be killed on a cross.”
