Jewish Passover and Good Friday

The Jewish Feast of Passover or Pesach      this year will start at sunset on Monday March 29th and stretches over to sunset on Tuesday 30th and during this Feast holiday, the Jewish families will kill a lamb below the age of one-year and roast it in fire and then consume the entire animal in one sitting; nothing is to be left overnight. They would also apply some of the blood of the lamb on the two doorposts and the lentel of the doorway to signify that blood had been shed and a death had occurred.
The Passover lamb signifies to the Jews that someone (in this case the lamb) had died in substitution for the family and because there had been one death in the family, the angel of death would pass over that household and therefore no death of any family member would take place.
God intended the Jewish Feast of Pesach to be a shadow of the real Lamb of God dying for the sins of the entire human race and Jesus is indeed our Passover Lamb. The night that Jesus was captured almost 2000 years ago was exactly the night of the Passover and because the Jews start their day at sunset right through to the next sunset, Jesus WAS crucified on Pesach and it so happened that the day that Jesus died on the cross was a Friday and hence the Christian decided to commemorate that Day as Good Friday - Good because Jesus Who IS God Himself died for us.
However, due to the difference in calendar used, Pesach and Good Friday do not normally coincide on one particular day (the Jews calculate their calendar following the movement of the moon around the Earth while we use the Gregorian calendar which tracks the movement of the Earth around the Sun) and any overlap would therefore be very obscure. And so, it will be very interesting to note that we have both Pesach and Good Friday falling on the same week and so lets believe that the Lord has something great for us and we receive His blessings in faith.
Once again, Pesach is celebrated by the Jews from sunset (6:00 PM Jerusalem time) on March 29th till sunset on March 30th while Good Friday starts at midnight (local time) on April 01 till midnight April 02.
