Well ... I’m not sure now :scratch:  I’m trying to figure out the timing of when the Israelites left Egypt (the world) and headed for the Promise Land (heaven).

We have here they were required to eat unleavened bread for 7 straight days but on the 7th day its a feast to the Lord ... soooo they killed a perfect lamb and put the blood on the door post on that 7th day and then ate the seder dinner that night. Wouldn’t that make it Sunday? :unsure:

Exodus 13:6 Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to the Lord.

 

Then you have in this passage at midnight of the 7th night those who didn’t have the blood on the door post ... their first born were slaughtered.  And it looks like pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in the middle of the night ... so that was the same night that they were able to leave Egypt for good?  If so then ... would that make it Sunday midnight hour to be alert into Monday morning???    But then ... I just noticed they said on this one website Passover ends at “night fall” what does that mean “sundown” or “midnight”??

Or .... are we still looking at Saturday night into early Sunday morning because Jesus arose from the grave??     :feedback

 

Exodus 12
29 And it came to pass, that at midnight the Lord smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.

30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

31 And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, and get you forth from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the Lord, as ye have said.

32 Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone; and bless me also.

33 And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We be all dead men.

34 And the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneadingtroughs being bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.

35 And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment:

36 And the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.

37 And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children.

38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle.

39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could not tarry, neither had they prepared for themselves any victual.

40 Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.

41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt.

42 It is a night to be much observed unto the Lord for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of the Lord to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations.
