Like I said ... probably inadvertence on your part:
The next morning after Passover is the Feast of Unleavened bread.
Leviticus 23:
5 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.

Something never occurred to me so I will ask now. Is the Lunar calendar always in the same order daily? I mean is the 15th always on the sixth day? Just wondering.
I just consulted my Hebrew calendar and I find the days change. With this in mind, depending on the year, the preparation for the specia Sabbath of Passover could have been any day of the wekk.....;

I wondered about that too. It isn't called that in the Old Testament though. I'll have to guess that in this case, since the main emphasis of His death seems to be the Passover day. I know that preparation for the Passover meal was made in the evening, as that's when they killed the Passover lamb in Old Testament times.
Yes, it was in the evening, as you say. I was confused for a while. Online clocks can't be trusted either, I've found. Plus reading the stories of HIs crucifixion again today, I am again puzzled. For various reasons on the subject. For example, the writers of the gospel differ somewhat in their accounts of HIs crucifixion, etc.
Mark 15:25
25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
KJV
Oh well!

I would say that the spiritual understanding must be applied .
When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby. John11:4
In the parable the Holy Spirit puts Lazarus a sleep for four days for the purpose of the unseen glory of God. Three days were used with Jesus.
Teaching us if Lazarus was asleep for four. Jesus falls into the category of possibilities .
Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.John11:12-14
He explains that the death of a new creature is not dead to never to rise to new spirit life for a believer. That kind of dead is for those who have "no faith" needed to rise Both their temporal body and temporal spirit both perish never to rise to new life.
One of the difficulties today is men attribute those who die without receiving a new spirit, never rise. . . that somehow they keep sufferings as if they did have a eternal spirit.. removing the letter of the law, death.
The removal of the sting of death . "You shall surely not die look at me Ssssss and live."
When the father gave words to Jesus the apostle. The words awoke him from his sleep just, as the wake up call with Lazarus. The father having removed the stone the Son of man. Jesus the prophet walked out. Having finished the three day demonstration a work of the Father and Son.
Ecclesiastes 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.

Well maybe it was an accurate clock I found. But if so, it doesn't correlate with the time the Passover Lamb was to be eaten in Old Testament times, which was said to be in the evening. And any remainders of it were to be disposed of being morning.
Lev 23:5
5 In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD's passover.
KJV
Another odd fact I observed, is that there seems to have been 2 different Passover meals - just several days apart in the story of His crucifixion. He was arrested on the first Passover. And maybe He died on the 2nd Passover. Maybe they'd developed the practice of holding 2 different Passover feasts, just days apart.

Jesus observed Passover on the correct Night.. Biblical days start at sundown and end at sundown.. So the night comes before the day.. So on the night of the 14th Jesus observed Passover with his apostles then he went to the garden and was arrested on the same night .. When morning came he was sentenced to death and died in the afternoon of the 14th Passover.. The Jews had the Passover meal at the wrong time.. They had the Passover meal on the night of the 15th.. And as far as i know they still do..

I was taught Jesus did not die on the weekly Passover. But that there's a Sabbath day called a high day that is a special sabbath that can occur on any day of the week, and not just Saturday. I don't know anything more about this. We do all realize we can't get 72 hours from the way most Churches teach it.
