Maggid ben Yoseif / Jerusalem Torah Voice in Exile

DATE/TIME

14 Nisan

15 Nisan

16 Nisan

Dusk

 (6 p.m.)

 

Passover (Feast of Unleavened Bread) begins at evening.

Y'shua celebrates the Passover meal with his disciples.

 

Midnight

 

Passover lamb must be eaten by now.  What is left is burned in the fire and not eaten.

Y'shua and his disciples adjourn to the Garden of Gethsemane where he is betrayed, arrested and brought to the house of Caiphas. Interrogation begins.

 

1st hour

 (6 a.m.)

 

Y'shua is judged by the chief priests and handed over to Pilate. 

 

3rd hour

(9 a.m.)

 

Chagigah offerings.

For the crucifixion to have taken place at this hour, which is the traditional interpretation, within a three hour period, Y'shua must have been interrogated by Pilate and then sent to Herod and returned to Pilate for final judgment. Just the distance marching back and forth between the precincts of Herod and Pilate would have consumed half of this time.  SEE TEXT FOR OTHER PROBLEMS.

Offering of an unblemished lamb in the Temple on the first day of the counting of the Omer, according to Leviticus 23.

We submit that the crucifixion occurred at this time, after a full day of interrogation by Pilate and Herod and perhaps coinciding with the offering above.

6th hour

(noon)

Begins 1st "Day" of Unleavened Bread; all Chametz must be removed from the home. Slaughter of Passover lambs at the Temple precincts begins after Chametz is removed.

Y'shua tells his disciples to prepare a place for the Passover meal that night.

Chagigah offerings continue all day.

The priests could not have appeared before Pilate on this day, lest they be defiled and prevented from offering the Chagigah.  SEE TEXT.

 

9th hour

(3 p.m.)

Slaughter of Pesah offerings (Passover lambs) at the Temple continues and lambs are roasted to prepare for Passover meal.

 

 

 

 

As many are astonished concerning you thus: "an outline from a man!" ... "his features mirror the sons of Adam!" Thus he shall startle many nations. Concerning him, kings (rulers) shall shut their mouths because that which was not told to them they shall see and that they had not heard they shall meditate to themselves.
