Lev.23

[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of Yehovah, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are My feasts.
[3] Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, an holy
convocation; you shall do no work
therein: it is the
Sabbath of Yehovah in
all your dwellings.
[4] These are the feasts of Yehovah, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in
their seasons.
[5] In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the Yehovah 's passover.
[6] And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened
bread unto Yehovah:
seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.
[7] In the first day ye shall have a holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.

2 Chr. 30 Hezekiah kept
the Passover
2 Chr. 35 - Josiah kept the Passover
Ezra 6 - 2nd Temple finished - the children of the captivity kept the Passover
Ezek. 45 Passover
and others…
One in Messiah Congregation kept the Passover and the
feast again. J
Luke 2 [41] Now Yeshua’s parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the
Passover…
[42] And when he, Yeshua was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast. [43] And when they had fulfilled the days, (7 days) they returned…
Custom = manner according to the divine laws in Torah
Back to Lev.23
[9] And Yehovah spoke unto Moses, saying,
[10] Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When you be
come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof,
then you shall bring a sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest unto the priest:
[11] And he shall wave the sheaf before Yehovah, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after
the Sabbath the priest shall wave it.
[12] And you shall offer that day when you wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year
for a burnt offering unto Yehovah.
[13] And the meat offering thereof shall be two tenth deals of fine
flour mingled with oil, an offering made by fire unto Yehovah for a sweet savor: and the drink offering
thereof shall be of wine, the fourth part of an hin.
[14] And you shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears,
until the selfsame day that you have brought an offering unto your God: it
shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
[15] And you shall count unto you from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the
day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven Sabbaths shall be complete:
[16] Even unto the
morrow after the seventh Sabbath shall you number
fifty days; and you shall offer a new meat offering unto Yehovah.
[17] Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth
deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baked with leaven; they are the first fruits unto Yehovah.
