They are not allowed to do work on the Passover. The Passover began at sundown. The chief priests would not have arrested him on the Passover as an arrest is work. They would not have made him carry his cross or be crucified on the Passover as that is work. They did not even light a lamp on the Passover as that is a type of work forbidden in the Talmud. They lit the lamp before the sun dipped below the horizon. I was in Tiberias, Israel one Friday. They sounded a siren to mark the beginning of the Sabbath - Shabbat. Much of the town closed down before three in the afternoon to prepare for the Sabbath. They had to cook their meals in advance of the day of rest to avoid working that day.In the case of the Passion week. The passover is sacrificed on the 14th day of the MONTH, This day is ALWAYS before the Feast of Unleavened Bread which is ALWAYS a Sabbath Day. So yes, that information above is correct as they often referred to the first Day of Unleavened Bread as the Passover feast or the Passover meal, as they did certainly eat the meal the night of the Feast Day.
