NOTE:

In 2009, the BIBLICAL Pesach (Passover) begins at sundown (dusk) on Tuesday, April 7, (14 Nisan)
but today's Hebrews celebrate The Passover on Thursday, April 9 (15 Nisan), a day late.

And, in 2009, the BIBLICAL Shavu'ot (Pentecost) begins at sundown (dusk) on Saturday, May 30, (8 Sivan)
but today's Hebrews celebrate Shavu'ot on Friday, May 29 (6 Sivan), two [2] days early.

AMONG TODAY'S "CULTURAL" HEBREWS:
There have been marked and tremendous departures from God's scriptural commands,
for the Holy Days and dates kept and observed by Hebrews today are different
from those Biblical days and dates established before and during the Exodus.

Moses would never tolerate today's Orthodox Jewish ecclesiastical calendar due to its eccentricities, its many egregious departures and deviations from God's original commands recorded in Torah.

The one [1] single day of The Passover (Pesach) is on 14 Nisan, Exodus 12:6; while the first annual "Pilgrimage" Sabbath is on 15 Nisan - and is called "The Feast Of Unleavened Bread" (Chag haMatzoh). The 7-day-long Feast Of Unleavened Bread begins on the day AFTER The Passover, they are separate and distinct days, just as they occur on different dates.

About which, see:  Ex. 23:14-17  ---  Lev. Chapter 23  ---  Deu. 16:16

Under direction of the Orthodox Jews, modern-day "cultural" Hebrews insist on merging the one (1) singular day of The Passover (Pesach) into the 7-day-long Feast of Unleavened Bread (Chag ha Matzoh). And, also under the direction of Orthodox Jews, today's Hebrews insist that The Passover is to be celebrated on the 15th day of Nisan, on the first-day-Sabbath of the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

The timing of the current Passover practice (15th day) is simply ridiculous. Because of this current Passover practice, it is strongly suspected that there are far more theological bozos and religiously-oriented buffoons in the world, today, than originally suspected. The teachings and beliefs derived from the Hebrew's Babylonian and Jerusalem Talmuds (Rabbinical commentaries) are part & parcel of this childish "Religious" foolishness practiced by Orthodox Jews today.

There is no way for today's "cultural" Hebrews to get around the fact that Orthodox Jews completely reject the specific requirement of observing The Passover on the beginning of the 14th day. Having been ordained by the God of Abraham, The Passover is commanded to be kept, faithfully, on the 14th day by all who CLAIM to be believers in the God of Abraham.

So, there is no excuse today for confusing the 14th day Passover Feast with the 15th day Unleavened Bread Feast. There is no GOOD Biblical reason for holding a Passover Seder, or any part of a Passover celebration, on the 15th day of Nisan.

The example of moving The Passover to the 15th day of Nisan, along with the example of today's Jewish tradition / custom of inventing extra (added) Sabbaths, gives cause to suspect that modern Hebrew religious authorities, the Orthodox Jews, have never even read their OWN Holy Scriptures because they give undue precedence to Rabbinical commentaries (Talmud, et. al.) while ignoring the "LAW" (Torah) and their Holy Scriptures (Tanakh).

Among scripturally astute individuals, much amusement is derived from noting the differences between the beliefs and practices (the customs and traditions) of modern-day "cultural" Hebrews as opposed to what The God Of Abraham has revealed to them in the Holy Scriptures.

The Hebrews possess the "Oracles Of God", yet the Hebrews cannot make any sense out of them at all.

For even if Hebrews actually DO read their own Holy Scriptures,
it is obvious that they do not understand what they are reading.
About which, SEE: Second Corinthians 3:14-16

By moving The Passover to the 15th day of Nisan, the Orthodox Jews have placed The Passover on an Annual High Sabbath Day (A High Holy Day), on one of the God-ordained "Pilgrimage" Sabbath Days.

BUT: God did not originally make The Passover a Sabbath day, and even the Christian Bible's New Testament declares that The Passover is a "Preparation" day, the day BEFORE an Annual High Sabbath Day. (See: John 19:31 - And, see also: Mat. 27:62; Mar 15:42; Luk. 23:54; Joh. 19:42)

Because The Passover has been erroneously relocated to the 15th day of Nisan, modern "cultural" Hebrews follow the dictates of Orthodox Jews (today's Pharisees) and treat The Passover AS IF it were a Sabbath, but The Passover is NOT a Sabbath day - The Passover never was a Sabbath day.

Apparently, Orthodox Jews labor under the delusion that mere men are authorized to move The Passover to a Sabbath day where The Passover had never originally existed, to a new day/date which God had NOT specified and which Moses would never have accepted.
