Oops of the Day
Jesus died on Friday because the Passover Sabbath was the following Saturday.
Matthew 26:17 – Matthew 27:62 – John 19:31 – Leviticus 23:24-25
Fact of the Day
No! The 14th day of the first month was Passover. It fell on different days each year. (Leviticus 23:5-6). John called it a “special Sabbath.” Sabbath does not mean seventh; it means “rest from labor”. For example, the Feast of Trumpets was called a special sabbath because it was celebrated on the first day of the seventh month, whatever day of the week it might fall on. Jesus died on Thursday.
