It's on Nisan 10 a Passover Lamb is chosen (Ex 12:3).

Passover:
Exodus 12:
3 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house:

5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats:

6 And ye shall keep it up until the "fourteenth day" of the same month (Nisan): and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.
(NOTE: The passover lamb was killed on Nisan 14 every year. This year Nisan 14 begins at sundown today 3/30/2018. Christ would be crucified tomorrow between 9am & 3pm)

Firstfruits Lev 23:10-11
It was on Firstfriuts, day 3 of the feast that Christ rose from the grave.

The firstfruits/sheaf of the barley harvest was brought to the Temple as a wave/heave offering (Lev 23:9-14).
(NOTE: The Priest would take a sheaf (a bundle of grain stalks laid lengthwise & tied together after reaping) of the firstfruits of the harvest. The priest would lift the sheaf (from his waist straight up before the Lord). This was a shadow of Christ being lifted from the grave)

The waving/heaving up to the Lord of the sheaf/firstfruits/grain bundle, was a dedication before God. And sanctified the whole harvest feild. Christ resurrection sanctified the entire humam race (Rom 11:16) for a future resurrection. Believers to eternal life with the Lord, rejecters to eternal life seperated from the Lord.

Paul also ties the Feast of Firstfruits together by linking Christ's Resurrection to it, Here:

1 Corinithains 15:
20 "But now Christ is risen from the dead" "and has become the firstfruits" "of those who have died".

21 For since by one man (Adam) came death, by one Man (Jesus Christ) also came the resurrection of the dead.

22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall (Believers) be made alive.

23 But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ's at His coming.

Jesus is the Firstfruits to Resurrect from the grave.

Christ brings a firstfruits offering before God here:

Matthew 27:
51 Jesus dies; and behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And the earth shook, and the rocks were split.
(NOTE: Old covenant ends right here!)

52 "The tombs also were opened". "And many bodies of the saints who had died were raised",

53 "and coming out of the tombs" "after his resurrection" "they went into the holy city and appeared to many"
(NOTE: These many bodies and seen going into Jerusalem. Are Christ's firstfruit heave/wave offering unto God the Father)

This year Christ would rise 4/2/2018. Having said that any day is a good day to celebrate The resurrection of Jesus the Christ! Amen

Amen!

Today I read & would recommend everyone read the resurrection chapter: 1 Corinthians 15.

And two favorite resurrection verses:

John 11:
25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.

Peace to all. I will be observing the biblical feast, as Yahweh requires of his people.
I am his and He is my Elohim.
Today on the 14th of Aviv at around 3pm I will remember the sacrifice made for me and anyone else that will receive this free gift.
I will remember the beautiful picture of Salvation pictured since the beginning.
I will remember the same way that Yahweh delivered His people from the bondage and the pharaoh,
He delivered me out of bondage and the Enemy
I will remember the same way His people sacrificed a lamb at around 3 pm a lamb without spot or blemish
and they put the blood on their doorpost that death would pass them over, at around 3 pm 2000 years ago a lamb without spot or blemish was being sacrificed for me, at the exact time the lambs where being sacrificed at the temple for the sins of the people, the Perfect Lamb was being sacrificed for the sins of the World.
The same way the people used the blood on the doorposts, The Messiah covers us with His blood that death may pass us over .

1 Corinthians 11:
For I received from the Master that which also I delivered to you, that the Master Yahushua on the night in which he was betrayed took bread. 24When he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me." 25In the same way he also took the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me." 26For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Master's death until he comes.27Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Master's cup in a way unworthy of the Master will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Master. 28But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. 29For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he doesn't discern the Master's body. 30For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep. 31For if we discerned ourselves, we wouldn't be judged. 32But when we are judged, we are punished by the Master's that we may not be condemned with the world.


I will proclaim of his death till He comes because through his death we are made alive. His death was on Passover that's why He is our Passover Lamb
