Jubilees
expresses
day has 2
parts and
evening has
1. Notice the
progression
of a day
and the
counting. The
2 portions of
day are first
and second
and the
night is third
because the
Biblical day
begins at
sunrise, then
afternoon
and then
evening. In
the Creation
account it
was day that
was created
and listed
first then the
night. The
sun was
created first
and then
the moon.
Pharisees
are rebuked
in this book
for following
the moon.
“Between
the two
evenings”
is explained
here. The
lamb was to
be roasted at
sundown and
eaten before
sunrise when
the sacrifice
remains must
be burnt.
One cannot
eat the next
day what
has already
disappeared.
P A S S O V E R
from uncleanness, and doth
not come to observe it on
occasion of its day, so as to
bring an acceptable offering
before Yahuah, and to eat
and to drink before Yahuah
on the day of its festival, that
man who is clean and close at
hand will be cut off; because
he offered not the oblation
of Yahuah in its appointed
season, he will take the guilt
upon himself. 10 Let the
children of Israel come and
observe the passover on the
day of its fixed time, on the
fourteenth day of the first
month, between the evenings,
from the third part of the day
to the third part of the night,
for two portions of the day are
given to the light, and a third
part to the evening.
11 That is that which Yahuah
commanded thee that thou
shouldst observe it between
the evenings. 12 And it is not
permissible to slay it during
any period of the light, but
during the period bordering
on the evening, and let them
eat it at the time of the
evening until the third part
of the night, and whatever is
leftover of all its flesh from
the third part of the night and
onwards, let them burn it with
fire.
13 And they shall not cook it
with water, nor shall they eat
it raw, but roast on the fire:
they shall eat it with diligence,
its head with the inwards
thereof and its feet they shall
roast with fire, and not break
any bone thereof; for †of the
children of Israel no bone
shall be crushed†. 14 For this
reason Yahuah commanded
the children of Israel to
observe the passover on the
day of its fixed time, and they
shall not break a bone thereof;
for it is a festival day, and a day
commanded, and there may
be no passing over from day to
day, and month to month, but
on the day of its festival let it
be observed. 15 And do thou
command the children of
Israel to observe the passover
throughout their days, every
year, once a year on the day
of its fixed time, and it will
come for a memorial well
pleasing before Yahuah, and
no plague will come upon
them to slay or to smite in that
year in which they celebrate
the passover in its season in
every respect according to His
command. 16 And they shall
not eat it outside the sanctuary
of Yahuah, but before the
sanctuary of Yahuah, and all
the people of the congregation
of Israel shall celebrate it in its
appointed season.
