  Blondie,

  Passover is not followed by the 7 days of the feast of unfermented cakes as the Watchtower teaches. Passover is the feast of unfermented cakes and is the same 7 days. The Watchtower got its teachings from the works of Eldershiem and his book "The Temple its Ministry and Services" which they proudly promoted and distributed for many years. Anyone with an On-Line Bible can read this book and such references to Passover and the 7 days that follow are included on this same CD. It was an error made by this man and this error continues to be taught by many denominations to this day. Wny is it that everyone thinks the Jews do no know what they are doing when it comes to Passover?

  Joseph, that sounds reasonable that Passover is the first day of the 7 days of Unfermented Cakes.

  Actually, the JW's had it right this year, for the first time in the 8 years I've paid attention to such nonsense from the BORG. the Lamb was slaughtered on the 14th of Nisan, but not eaten until that evening, the 15th. This year the Jews celebrated Pesach at Sundown on April 16th just like the JW's. That's the first time I've seen such happen. I trust the Jews to be more accurate that the JW's after all, they've been doing this for 3800 years, the JWs less than 150.
