RE: No, Easter is Not Based on the Pagan goddess Eostre.
So, Resurrection Sunday actually corresponds to the Feast of First Fruits. Check out Leviticus 23 for the list of Feast days and when they occur.
Good Friday occurs on the Feast of Passover. Jesus was crucified on the day of Passover.
Jesus was buried in the tomb on the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
Jesus was resurrected on the Feast of First Fruits.
These happened on the very days.
Also, the holy spirit came down on Pentecost which occurred on the very day of the Feast of Weeks.
For your further reading, there's three more Feast Days that have not been fulfilled by Jesus YET. The Feast of Trumpets, The Feast of Atonement, The Feast of Tabernacles.
Good post, thanks for putting this up!
Thanks. You are correct. I based this on the discussions of polycarp and the early celebration, which was tied to the fourteenth of Nissan, which is Passover. But the fulfillment of the feasts as you explain, did happen exactly on those days.
Thanks for an insightful and thoughtful comment. I should probably add those important points. But they are here for anyone who reads down.
I can always count on you to know stuff. :)
The problem is I know stuff that may or may not be exactly correct. Getting the facts on everything and double checking is a constant.
True. There is a lot of misinformation out there.
