Calendar of Redemption: Passover Shadow (Pesach)

Calendar of Redemption
Before the Cross-
Concerning the feasts of the LORD,...   an holy convocation;
ye shall do no work therein:
it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.
These are the feasts of the LORD,
even holy convocations,
which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
Leviticus 23:4,5
Since the Cross-
Let no man therefore judge you in meat,
or in drink,
or in respect of an holyday,
or of the new moon,
or of the sabbath days:
These are
a shadow of the things that were to come;
the reality, however, is found in Christ.
Colossians 2:16,17 NIV

--PASSOVER--
14 Nisan (March/April)
In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD'S Passover.
Leviticus 23:5
Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year:
Exodus 12:5
Passover Meal (Communion Service)
SANCTUARY:
This of course would be representative of the altar of burnt sacrifice. Also connected to the Table of Shewbread which also contained the cups for drink offerings.
NOTES:
This would represent the day of His crucifixion. Many Christians celebrate this today as "Good Friday." COMMUNION SERVICE of Christians is a continuation of the Passover Meal:  The Passover Meal included the Seder Cup which represents His Cup of the blood of His Redemption &  the Afikomen is the bread eaten at the end which represents His body that was to be broken, hidden then found.

But he was wounded for our transgressions,
he was bruised for our iniquities:
the chastisement of our peace was upon him;
and with his stripes we are healed.
Isaiah 53:5
