Passover and the Crucifixion

Leading up to Passover this year we’re concentrating on the New Testament scriptures associated with the feast.

As we read about the raising of Lazarus, the triumphal entry, the Last Supper, and the betrayal and crucifixion of Jesus, be open to the Holy Spirit to make this experience real to you.

The purpose of the annual Passover ceremony is to bring this into present immediacy so that each participant is made to feel “as if he had personally come out from Egypt.”

Let’s make that our prayer again this year– to  leave Egypt and leave our selves behind. Download the Passover Memo for scripture readings and a schedule of activities.
