Have you considered why the pilgrims returned to Emmaus, was it because the feast was over, after the 21st or did they not stay the week of the unleavened bread, being the 16th?
I agree with you we cant ignore the historical evidence. They defined it on Sunday.
Easter is defined to fall on the first Sunday after the Full Moon that falls on or after the equinox or March 21. If the Full Moon is on a Sunday, Easter is celebrated on the following Sunday.
This means, we are looking for the first full moon on or after March 21, the NEXT Sunday is Easter.
Now understanding that the 15th of the first month, the 1st day of Passover week, is always the full moon when using the Lunar calendar.

Me to, I am just confirming your point that they placed Easter on a Sunday.It is called Pascha. The point of the discussion we were having was that it was on a SUNDAY...not which date was Passover.
I'm not making it fit. I am simply taking th words of Moses from Leviticus where he tells us to end our our count on the morrow after the Sabbath, and to begin our 50 Day count on the morrow after the Sabbath. So if you count from the Sabbaths of the 1st or 7th Days of the Feast of Unleavened Bread then your 50th Day will never end on the day after the Sabbath, or the 1st Day/Sunday. You won't even get their if you count from the 19th Day of the 1st Month on the 1st Day of the Week. Therefore the only date which qualifies is the 26th Day of Abib.It appears you are placing it on the 26. Like the Essenes? Is that to line it up with Ex19:1
Can you please give more detail?
Shalom

The Sunday after the full moon, after equinox.
And is done the same way today.
Welll...Feast of First Fruits is on the 15th Day of the 3rd Month..
Hebrew reads RoSH CHoDeSH or "new month" The actual Hebrew word for moon is YeReACH.
I am not implying you did, I am just excited that you have noticed this.I'm not making it fit.

Count begins on the Sunday after the Saturday and ends the day after Saturday...50 Days.
Sorry for the misunderstanding, but yes Exodus 19:1 is the exact time of FIrst Fruits!I am not implying you did, I am just excited that you have noticed this.
From the way, you talk you are following the Enoch calendar?
I have noticed Ex19:1 and is exploring that this is a confirmation that the 15th of the third month was the 50th day of the count?
Shalom
And yes Enoch/Zadok/Priestly Order/Dead Sea Scrolls are all referring back to the same calendar introduced in Genesis 1:1-2:3:I am not implying you did, I am just excited that you have noticed this.

Yes, a way for everyone to conform to one date. Many Christians were keeping it on differing dates at the time. But yes, it was always to be on a Sunday.
No worries.Sorry for the misunderstanding, but yes Exodus 19:1 is the exact time of FIrst Fruits!
This was also supported by the Essenes, am I correct? Starting the count on the 26thAnd yes Enoch/Zadok/Priestly Order/Dead Sea Scrolls are all referring back to the same calendar introduced in Genesis 1:1-2:3:

The only way to make sense out of why the Qumran community started out the year on the 4th Day/Wednesday is if they understood that because God created the luminaries on that day is the exact time the 1st Day of Abib of the 1st Year of the world begins!
Lol that's exactly why I created this thread dealing with that issue ha ha ha! People have to be initiated into the Mysteries of God and Christ:No worries.
Trying to share something the HS have shared with you isn't always easy, because not everyone follows your chain of though, I understand.
Shalom
Honestly I don't know the actual name of the group, though I have heard the Essene theory is quite popular, but yes it is the exact same calendar the Qumran community was using.This was also supported by the Essenes, am I correct? Starting the count on the 26th
‘After three days I am to rise again.’ T
Notice the emphasis on everything being accomplished on the 3rd Day,
It appears you are placing it on the 26. Like the Essenes? Is that to line it up with Ex19:1
Can you please give more detail?
Shalom
I agree and don't like it and in the process we have lost a great deal of detail
Yes I remember reading a bit about this in the Church histories of Eusebius. It seemed the conflict originated out of people not accurately following the Law of Moses in terms of the exact date for Passover. And as time went by the newer believers simply followed the traditions handed down to them, and this caused a controversy between new followers and those who had studied directly under the Apostles. Theophilus of Caesarea was on such voice who openly opposed the other observances of Easter which didn't fall on Abib 14.The other problem is the RCC and Eastern Orthodox are on different calendars!Some times they are on the same date while other times they are different. Many EO before 325 AD were keeping Pesakh on the 14th.
