Pesach Sheni or Second Passover ... With Yashua?

 If Yashua was obedient to the Torah and taught His disciples to do so as well,
then is what I'm about to say possible? 

What I'm about to say is speculative, sometimes defined as conjecture or to form an opinion based on incomplete information. But to speculate also means to consider or ponder a possibility. That's what I'm doing with what I'm about to say. I’m merely considering a possibility.

I'll start with a question. How long, according to the Bible, did Yashua walk the earth AFTER He rose from the dead? Ma`asei (Acts) 1 tells us it was 40 days.

How many days after any Passover is Pesach Sheni or Second Passover? It is no more than 30 days (29 or 30 days is the length of a Hebrew month). Clearly 30 is within the 40 that Yashua was with His disciples and family before He ascended. 

According to Torah, it is commanded to have a Pesach Sheni. Bemiḏbar (Numbers) 9:9-14 tells us that if you were around a dead body or on a long journey, you could have Pesach in the 2nd month on the same day of the month as the first one.

Yashua's mother Miryam (Mary), Yochanan (John), Yosef of Ramathayim (Joseph of Arimathea) and Naḵdimon (Nicodemus) were in contact with Yashua's body at His crucifixion. Yoḥanan (John) 19 All those people would have had a Pesach Sheni. The exciting thing about that, Yashua was alive and quite likely attended! After all, He couldn't be at the first one because He was on a 'long journey' to the heart of the earth! Mattithyahu (Matthew) 12:40

It's okay if you don't accept this because it isn't actually written in the Word. Personally, I think it did happen based on the fact that Yashua obeyed Torah, and so would have Miryam, Yochanan, Yosef, and Naḵdimon. We’ll find out for certain in the Kingdom.

Shalom

Atonement: Why Yashua is NOT the Scapegoat as Described in Leviticus 16

Image
There is a vast difference between the two goats for which lots were cast at Yom Kippur. Leviticus 16 says that one was marked קֹדֶשׁ לַיהוָה Kodesh L'Yehovah - Holy/Set-apart to יְהוָֺה [Exodus 28:36] and the other “for Azazel.” The one that is Set-apart to יְהוָֺה is sacrificed and its blood placed on the Mercyseat, כַּפֹּרֶת kapporet, the word from which kippur is derived. The one for Azazel, inaccurately translated as ‘scapegoat’ in English, was the one that the sins of the entire nation of Israel were confessed onto and then sent out of the camp.    At the covenant of the pieces in Genesis 15:11 when the carrion birds came to try to take Abram’s sacrifices, the Book of Abraham in the Apocrypha gives some insight:      And it came to pass when I saw the bird speaking, I said this to the angel: "What is this, my Lord?" And He said, "This is disgrace – this is Azazel!" And He said to him, "Shame on you, Azazel! For Abraham's portion is in heaven, and ...

How the Day of Trumpets* Became Rosh Hashanah by Marie L. Schryver

  On the 1st day of the Seventh Month (Tishrei) the Torah commands us to observe the holy day of *Yom Teruah which means “Day of Shouting” (Leviticus 23:23-25; Numbers 29:1-6). Yom Teruah is a day of rest on which work is forbidden. One of the unique things about Yom Teruah is that the Torah does not say what the purpose of this holy day is. The Torah gives at least one reason for all the other holy days and two reasons for some. The Feast of Matzot (Unleavened Bread) commemorates the Exodus from Egypt, but it is also a celebration of the beginning of the barley harvest (Exodus 23:15; Leviticus 23:4–14). The Feast of Shavuot (Weeks) is a celebration of the wheat harvest (Exodus 23:16; 34:22). Yom Ha-Kippurim (aka Yom Kippur) is a national day of atonement as described in great detail in Leviticus 16. Finally, the Feast of Sukkot (Booths) commemorates the wandering of the Israelites in the desert and is also a celebration of the in-gathering of agricultural produce (Exodus 23:16). I...

The Descriptive Names of Yehovah by Marie L Schryver

  בְּ רֵאשִׁית, בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים , אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם, וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ In the beginning ELOHIM created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1 H430 EL - Elohim אֱלֹהִים EhloHEEM is plural even though YEHOVAH IS ONE and He has ONE NAME, יְהוָֺה. However, He has many descriptions. The writers of the TORAH use the plural of EL to show emphasis when speaking of the Creator. Note: The first word in the Torah begins with a larger letter beit בּ to show importance.   אֵלֶּה תוֹלְדוֹת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְהָאָרֶץ, בְּהִבָּרְאָם:   בְּיוֹם, עֲשׂוֹת יְהוָֺה אֱלֹהִים --אֶרֶץ וְשָׁמָיִם These are the generations of the heaven and of the earth when they were created, in the day that YEHOVAH ELOHIM made earth and heaven. Genesis 2:4 H3068 Yehovah is translated as LORD in all upper-case letters. It literally means ‘I ALWAYS WAS, I AM, I ALWAYS WILL BE.’ This is the first mention of His true Name, יְהוָֺה YEHOVAH (Yeh ho VAH), which is confirmed to Moshe in Exodus 3:14-15. I...
