God’s “IMPORTANT” Calendar Days
and
God’s 7 Holy Days
All days 1 day later west of the USA Westward around the earth to Jordan.
No work, no buying, no selling, no restaurants on Holy Days but OK on in-between non-Holy days; * Starts the evening before
This calendar is for this year 2025 only.
3 Springtime Celebrations in 2025:
1.) Last Dinner= Leisurely meal, “sitting” down at table. Friday April 11th .
2.) Passover= In HASTE “Standing” ONLY allowed. Sunday April 13th.
3.) Feast of Unleavened Bread 1st Day April 14th is HOLY Time and 7th day April 20th is Holy Time=Set Apart Time/Sanctified.
For clarity remember The LAST DINNER is Friday April 11th 7 P.M. (for 2025 only):
This Last Dinner is “NOT” the Passover! This Last Dinner is a separate service/meeting COMMANDED by Christ Himself:
This is the Last Dinner that Yahushua “commanded” to do in remembrance of Him....Bible commands: on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat;[b] this is My body which is broken[c] for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
23 For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread, 24and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 25In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood;
do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”… Mark 14:22-25; Luke 22:18-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-25.
Editor’s Note:
You do this ON THE NIGHT HE WAS BETRAYED= in remembrance of Him. He stated He longed to take the Passover but couldn’t because He would be dead by the Passover evening, which PROVES this dinner was NOT the Passover. He commanded the dinner, bread and wine in remembrance of Him and the Footwashing on “this” night which was 3 days and 3 nights “before” He was crucified because the Romans would not kill a condemned man on the same day as the sentence was given= another PROOF that this Dinner was not the Passover.
And this also MATCHES/Foreshadows the 3 days and 3 nights that His body was in the Tomb.
And after He was sentenced by Pilate “WAS” the next day after this Last Dinner, AND He then had to spend a night in the dungeon, because He was sentenced the next day at 12 noon, and crucified at 9 A.M. the following day and this definitely proves this was NOT the Passover because you obviously cannot be crucified before you are sentenced.
Thus this Last Dinner was 3 days before Passover, and you are to do this Dinner 3 days before Passover and follow His example of a “Big” Meal with 12 people, Footwashing, Bread and Wine, and a Hymn. Follow my example, as we follow the example of Christ. NIV 1 Corinthians 11:1.
Therefore, “HAVE” this LAST Dinner on Friday April 11th 7 P.M. (for 2025 only) in the evening after sunset, in small home groups=
1.) A leisurely full course regular Meal (any type of clean meat chicken/beef/fish= no lamb required), with Bread, and fermented Wine in Tribute/in Remembrance of Him:
2.) Footwashing after the meal, and
3.) close with a Hymn.
(Has a Full Blood Red Moon this year 2025)
To help you inculcate the event times, If crucified in 2025 by God’s calendar the Days would be:
2025 using God’s Calendar:
In 2025:
Last Dinner Friday April 11th
TRIAL Saturday April 12th Sentenced at 12 Noon (for 2025 only). Dungeon Saturday night April 12 night, spent night in Dungeon (because Roman Law mandated: “a man could not be crucified on the same day as Sentencing”).
CRUCIFIED Sunday April 13th Passover Day Abib/Nisan 14 Crucified at 9 A.M. (for 2025 only) Sunday is also the April 13th Preparation Day
1st Day of Unleavened Bread Monday April 14th,* 2025
Editor’s Note:
Realize that 2 days later “after” the Last Dinner you are “also” to take
the Passover using the Elements of a piece of Lamb, bitter herbs, and wine this year on Saturday April 13 10 minutes “before” sundown.
Take these 3 elements, lamb, bitter herbs, and wine “In Haste” never sitting down= STANDING UP the whole time, take pieces of Lamb, bitter herbs,= eat nothing else and gulp
in HASTE in 1 motion 1 full ounce of fermented wine IN HASTE STANDING UP.
The Passover of April 13th is totally different from and separate from Christ’s commanded leisurely Last Dinner of April 11th=
You MUST do BOTH DAYS to be obedient to God, and to be obedient to the Scriptures.
Editor’s Note:
RE: The ACTUAL DATE of the crucifixion:
Christ was crucified in 34 A.D.:
Our TO COG Research points to Wednesday March 24, 34 A.D. as the date of the Crucifixion. This was Nisan 14 on the official Jewish calendar.
Therefore in 34 A.D.:
the LAST DINNER was on Monday,
the Trial ended at 12 P.M. noon on a Tuesday,
the Dungeon was on Tuesday afternoon & Tuesday nighttime, and;
The Crucifixion was at 9 A.M. on Wednesday with death at 3 P.M. Wednesday= cut off in the middle of the week, as the scriptures prophesied. Berean Standard Bible ... 26 Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and will have nothing. Then the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. ... but in the middle of the week he will put an end to sacrifice and offering.
Daniel 9:26
The "middle of the week" indicates a Wednesday.
Using “Exclusive” Reckoning with the crucifixion on Wednesday,
(not to be confused with “Inclusive Reckoning” where parts of days count as a full day).
BECAUSE His Body “was” in the Tomb 3 FULL DAYS & 3 FULL NIGHTS:
3 nights Body in Tomb=
12 hours Wednesday night
12 hours Thursday night
12 hours Friday night 6 P.M.to 6 AM. BECAUSE at 6 A.M. it was still dark. (Via Hebrew Time: Night is 6 P.M. sundown, to 6 A.M. sunrise).
And
3 days Body in Tomb=
0 30 minutes to 1 hour Wednesday daytime via Exclusive reckoning this does NOT count as a day.
12 hours Thursday daytime
12 hours Friday daytime
12 hours Saturday daytime
Wed night Thurs Fri night= 3 nights
Thursday daytime, Friday daytime, Saturday daytime= 3 days
Therefore sometime after Sundown Saturday Christ was coming out of the garden tomb to contemplate his new life, and He walked in the Garden, and rested in the garden as he waited for and to meet Mary, to show her he was alive, as He had promised her He would be.
You cannot deny Him an evening alone to contemplate all that had happened, that has changed the whole World. He wanted to meet with Mary and he waited for her in the garden.
His Body rose on the 1st workday (Sunday morning starts a normal workday/workweek in God’s Calendar).
He told Mary in the dark not to touch him because he had not yet ascended to the Father.
That would indicate that he would start his new job at:
At circa 9 A.M. to start His New Testament Position/Job at the right-hand side of God the Father.
Editor’s Note:
His body never descended into the heart of the earth, as only His Spirit descended into the Heart of the Earth.

In eastern vernacular: Combine “Chag” and “sameach.” Try saying the words together as a phrase, “Chag sameach.” Concentrate on the correct pronunciation of the individual words in the phrase. Practice saying the entire phrase and pronouncing it “KHAHG sah-MEY-akh.” [5] Sephardic Jews prefer using the greeting “Chag sameach.

Addendum:
“REASONS” Our (TO COG) Evidence points to Wednesday, March 24, 34 A.D. as the date of the Crucifixion. This was Nisan 14 in the official Jewish calendar.
And BECAUSE:
1.) There was NO “0” YEAR SO YOU HAVE TO ADD A YEAR to Elijah’s 6000 year prophecy.
2.) He was to be cut off mid-week= Wednesday is mid-week with 3 days before and 3 days after.
3.) Jesus confirmed his covenant, the New Covenant, for one week. In the middle of the week (3 ½ years into his ministry) he was “cut off” thus, putting an end to the sacrifices and offerings of the old covenant. But the Jews would still continue in vain to offer sacrifices that had been rendered null and void by the crucifixion of Christ in the middle of the prophesied 7 years. It would still be another 3 ½ years “after” the crucifixion until the completion of the covenant week. This was fulfilled when the Samaritans and the Gentiles were brought in with the conversion of the Samaritans and the Ethiopian Eunuch in Acts 8 = The covenant is now fulfilled.
4.) Editor’s Note: A pagan idol put in the Holy Place, the term “middle of the week” again is used to describe a TIMELINE for in Matthew 24:15-16, Jesus uses the term “middle of the week” and applies the Daniel 9:27 and the “abomination of desolation” to the impending destruction of Jerusalem and the temple, an event that would be witnessed by that generation. He warns them:
“Therefore, when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.”
This is a reference to the “abomination of desolation” of Daniel 9, not that of Daniel 12:7’s: “It will be for a time, times and half a time.[b] When the power of the holy people has been finally broken, all these things will be completed.” The “abomination of desolation” of which Jesus spoke would be the “Standards”= “Artifacts”= or even an Idol that Satan makes to speak, that would be placed in the “Holy Place.” When that generation saw the Roman army coming to surround Jerusalem, they were to flee to the mountains in order to escape the judgment that God was sending upon Jerusalem.
and in the midst [NKJV: middle] of the week [of 7 years] [= just likened to a Wednesday] he [the evil Beast Leader] shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
So “again” a sacrifice is cut off “in the MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. This is like “type” and anti-type” thereby showing the precedent of sacrifices (Christ’s sacrifice and later the Jews sacrifices being cut off IN THE MIDDLE OF A WEEK). The middle of a week is WEDNESDAY.
5.) There were “2” Sabbaths during the crucifixion week. The women had to hurry to do the Burial Cloths/Anointing “BETWEEN” THE 2 Sabbaths=
A Wednesday crucifixion is the only way the Embalming of Christ’s body could fit into the week’s timeframe of having 2 Sabbaths, as the Thursday Unleavened Day Sabbath has to be near to the Saturday 7th Day Sabbath, and that can only happen in 34 A.D.:
§ = Wednesday, March 24, 34 A.D. Christ was crucified
§ = Thursday was the Holy 1st day of Unleavened Bread, so the women had to wait until Friday daytime to wrap His body in burial cloths.
§ = Friday evening started the 2nd Holy Day/Sabbath Day of that week.
- Then after 1 day had passed:
- When the Sabbath [1st Day of Unleavened Bread]was past , Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him (Mark 16:1).
- John 19:39 When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him (Mark 16:1).
§ And this is the “only” way to EXPLAIN/fit in the timing of the 2 Sabbaths, during that 1 week of the crucifixion.
Additional Interesting Information:
Nicodemus also, who earlier had come to Jesus by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds in weight. John 19:39.
57 As evening approached, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who had himself become a disciple of Jesus. 58Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus’ body, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him. 59Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut out of the rock. He rolled a big stone in front of the entrance to the tomb and went away. 61 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb. Matthew 27:57
Thus, the women came Friday morning at first light to finish the job of embalming Jesus' body.
On Wednesday the body had only been hurriedly wrapped. Two wealthy mean, Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus provided the expensive materials - linen and aloes but the women were to do the work.
These women were NOT from wealthy families and could not have provided such grand funeral arrangements including a grave cut from the rock, expensive linen and such a large amount of expensive aloes.
This was to fulfill the prophecy in Isa 53:9 - He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with a rich man in His death,
Then after 1 day had passed:
When the Sabbath [1st Day of Unleavened Bread]was past , Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him (Mark 16:1).
John 19:39 was uncommon:
Nicodemus also, who earlier had come to Jesus by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds in weight= A fantastic unheard of uncommon “LARGE” amount, in “GREAT RESPECT” FOR Yahushua!
After Jesus’ death on the cross, Joseph of Arimathea went to the Roman governor Pilate to request Jesus’ body. Nicodemus, the Pharisee who had visited Jesus at night to ask questions about God’s Kingdom, accompanied Joseph. The two men were granted custody of Jesus’ body, and they immediately began to prepare the body for burial. Nicodemus brought 75 pounds of spices for use in preparing the body for burial and then assisted Joseph in wrapping the body and placing it in the tomb. The sheer amount of burial spices would seem to indicate that Nicodemus was a rich man and that he had great respect for Jesus:
Nicodemus also, who earlier had come to Jesus by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds in weight (John 19:39).
Following Jewish custom, they wrapped the body in strips of linen and mixed in myrrh and aloe. However, it was the Day of Preparation—the sixth day of the week, just before the Jewish Sabbath—and it was late in the day. So Joseph and Nicodemus hurriedly placed Jesus in Joseph’s own tomb, located in a garden near the place of Jesus’ crucifixion.
It was not until early on the first day of the week (our Sunday) that the women came to the tomb to anoint the body of Jesus:
When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him (Mark 16:1).
BURIAL CLOTHS “AFTER” THE SABBATH AND BEFORE THE NEXT SABBATH
MEANS
Crucified Wednesday, cut off in middle or week= mid-week
Crucified Wednesday
1st Holy Day of Unleavened Bread Thursday Waited till the Thursday Holy Day was over, = Friday Daytime was the day they wrapped up His body in Burial Cloths,
rushing before the weekly Friday Evening Saturday Sabbath came.
