Numbers 28:17

Key Reflection

This verse establishes that the Passover, a pivotal event marking Israel's deliverance from Egypt, occurs in the first month (Nisan) on the fourteenth day of the month. This timing underscores its central place in the Hebrew calendar and foreshadows the coming sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who would be crucified on the same day, fulfilling the Old Testament prophecy and symbolizing new spiritual freedom for believers.
