SPRING / Feast of Unleavened Bread
Biblical Reference: Leviticus 23:5, Leviticus 23:9-14
What is it about? The Passover is a Holy Day Feast in which we remember how the Most High saved our forefathers from the hard bondage in Egypt under Pharaoh by sending great wonders and plagues, the last of which was the angel of death. Only those who had the blood of the lamb sacrificed by Moses and Elders of Israel upon their door posts would be saved from that plague, but those that did not all the first born of the Egyptians and their cattle were slain by the angel of death.
This was a preparation for the Most High sending his son Yashaya to also be a lamb without blemish or without sin in order to be sacrificed for the nation of Israel that all under his blood can be saved from death and receive eternal life being restored back to the father through Christ. (Galatians 4:4-5)
Because the children of Israel were at haste to leave Egypt they ate with their loins girded or clothed, shoes on their feet and staff in their hand and made unleavened bread as there was no time to put leaven into the bread, and once they had eaten the Passover in haste they woke up early at night to leave the land as the Most High had commanded.
How do we celebrate it? We celebrate the Passover by making a Holy Convocation and eating lamb made with fire, bitter herbs and unleavened bread. This should be done as closely as possible to how our fathers did it in Exodus the 12th chapter. We don’t deal with the sacrificial part of it because Christ fulfilled this by dying for our sins on the cross.
Exo 12:8-9 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof.”
The feast of Unleavened Bread should be celebrated by removing leaven (yeast) from our homes so we don’t consume anything with leaven for seven days. For seven days we are to feast and celebrate but the 1st and 7th day shall be a Holy Convocation (gathering).
“Exo 12:19 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land. Exo 12:20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread.”
How Christ fulfilled this Holy Day:The Most High no longer accepted the animal sacrifices of the nation of Israel

How Christ fulfilled this Holy Day:
The Most High no longer accepted the animal sacrifices of the nation of Israel (Isa. 66:2-3; Isa. 1:11-15; Amos 5:21-22). Christ was the sacrifice/Lamb without blemish that would redeem Israel back to the Father (Isa. 53, Dan. 9:24, Matt. 20:28, John 1:29; 36, 1 Pet. 18-19). Christ is the Passover Lamb of the nation of Israel (1 Cor. 5:7).

Thank you I really need a lesson on this Holy Day as I'm not sure how to perform do I get lamb to eat, unleavened bread I thought we are to move the leaven sin out our behavior. I know I am not the only one who needs help with the Holy days, Thank you Apostle and One Nation One Power if led by the Holy Spirit will you do a lesson on the Holy Days and what to remember Shalawam? Shalom!
We keep the holy days as closely as we can while remembering they are an observance. This feast we prepare for but getting the leaven out of our homes symbolic of getting sin out of our lives. Then we bbq lamb with bitter herbs and have it with unleavened bread and what ever other sides. We have a gathering and prayer here then a use the rest of the week as a remembrance. Most importantly we dont over complicate things. The Father is not about confusion.
Unleavened bread can be just a mixture of flour, salt, olive oil and water. Mixed rolled out thin and baked. Its like a cracker.
@Khemdah Ban Gad is there a day of fasting during the passover
I really don't understand how that we can be expected to keep these feasts of the Lord except in our hearts and observe the sabbaths as best we can. We don't have in this captivity a righteous king or the availabilty of righteous priests. We can't even be sure of what we are eating isn't jacked up. To say if we don't 'keep' these things I think puts a undue burden of condemnation upon the saints that the enemy loves. Just saying, and I think I also have the Spirit of the Lord.
We keep the holy days as closely as we can while remembering they are an observance. Col 2:17 KJV Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
Absolutely sister Khemdah 😊 🙌🏾APTTMH🙌🏾 💜👑💜🦁💜
Also sister Khemdah do you have any advice on how to keep the feast days.... With regards to food, and observing the correct manner of doing the feast days as this is what I struggle with since I keep the feast days alone mainly...😔 But still 🙌🏾APTTMH🙌🏾 💜👑💜🦁💜
well for passover lamb is suggested along with any unleavened food. I usually just try to do special things so we look forward to those meals
11 They that are delivered from the noise of archers in the places of drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the Lord, even the righteous acts toward the inhabitants of his villages in Israel: then shall the people of the Lord go down to the gates. This verse comes to mind Judges 5:11
