Passover, Good Friday, Blood Moon

There are three events to celebrate in April 2015 — Passover, Good Friday, the blood moon. Good Friday on April 3, 2015 marks the day that Jesus was crucified, sundown of April 3 marks the first day of Passover, and then less than 12hours later, there will be a total lunar eclipse. Take your pick, or celebrate all three. I wrote earlier about the blood moon tetrads, but I also watched a video from Rabbi Vaknin Calling for Jewish Repentance:

 

Eric Huntsman, a BYU professor has an explanation of Good Friday, and the the timeline of Christ’s death on his blog: LDS Seasonal Materials and he shares some ideas for preparing for Easter.

I think it is a good idea to teach our children about Passover and share a Passover meal with them and other family members friends. But I’ve also celebrated Good Friday and enjoyed hot cross buns. This year, since they fall all on the same day I guess you have your pick — leavened or unleavend bread. Or you might have Passover any day during the week long holiday.

Avraham Gileadi gave an interesting talk about Passover of 2014: Turning the Hearts of the Jews to the Prophets and the Prophets to the Jews 

Passover, Good Friday, and this years Blood Moon seem to significant.
