Jesus in The Passover Celebration More Than A Haggadah

This book is the 2nd edition, adding a considerable amount of background material not contained in the original. We discuss how this Passover is actually three feasts in one, and the prophetic importance in the salvation story. We will show you God's heart, as we reveal a more accurate Hebrew/English translation of Leviticus 23:2. As you read this book, you will understand why the Passover celebration, in Jewish life is paramount. Since the Temple, in which sacrifices were once performed, was destroyed by the Romans in 70 A.D., Rabbinical tradition has replaced the Passover Sacrifice with the Seder ceremony. The Seder is a memorial dinner, and celebration, which is designed to remember the Exodus story, and the freedom from the bondage of slavery in Egypt, and the entry into the Promised Land. This celebration is deeply rooted in Jewish history, and is an essential part of the Jewish identity. Passover; however, is as wide as it is deep, because Jewish and Messianic communities around the world have added local cultural flavors to their celebrations by augmenting them with already existing community traditions. A brief journey through some of these traditions can add to the appreciation of how the creativity of the Jewish people has adorned the ancient, and time-honored mores of the Exodus story. Both the timing of the event, and the Apostolic writings, reveal that the Passover Sacrifice was a type of foreshadowing of an even greater event. The Messiah, the true Lamb of God would be sacrificed, and His blood accepted as freedom from the bondage of slavery to sin, and eternal death.While most Messianic leaders like to put on Passover service, celebrations, even Christian Leaders are beginning to recognize the connection between Jesus' Sacrifice and the meaning of the Seder. This book will not only provide you with a Haggadah to use during these Seders, it will also give you the Scriptural and cultural understanding of how Messiah has fulfilled prophesy through the Passover celebration.
