remorseful and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests

that to us? You see to it!" (5) Then he threw down the pieces of silver in
the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself.

nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe."
Cast lots for the tunic
John
19:24 They
said therefore among themselves, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for
it, whose it shall be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says:
"THEY DIVIDED MY GARMENTS AMONG THEM, AND FOR MY CLOTHING THEY CAST
LOTS." Therefore the soldiers did these things.

Nisan 17 – Sabbath (weekly)
Jesus Resurrected before sunset, before Sunday night (time is not given
in the Scriptures.
Nisan 18 – Sunday night
This ceremony is called, the Wave Sheaf
Offering.
This day is called, the beginning of the
harvest, sometimes confusingly called Feast of Firstfruits, related to
Pentecost
Let’s turn to the book of Leviticus, covering
The Feast of Firstfruits.
Leviticus 23:9-10 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, (10)
"Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: 'When you come into the land which I give to
you, and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits
of your harvest to the priest.
Notice, this did not start until they enter
and settle in the land of Canaan
The weekly
Sabbath day following the First Day of Unleavened Bread was a time
to give the firstfruits of the harvest to God. The idea was to dedicate the
first ripened stalks of grain to God, in anticipation of a greater harvest to
come. Field represents the world,
Firstfruits is us, First of the Firstfruits – Jesus.
“The firstfruits at Passover would be barley,
which ripens in the warmer areas as early as March.” When we read this, think how it applies to
Jesus.
Leviticus 23:11-15 He shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted on your behalf; on the day after the Sabbath the priest shall
wave it.
(12) And you shall offer on that day, when you wave the
sheaf, a male lamb of the first year,
without blemish, as a burnt offering to the LORD.
(13) Its
grain offering shall be two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering
made by fire to the LORD, for a sweet aroma; and its drink offering shall be
of wine, one-fourth of a hin (about 1.5 gals).
Tenth part of an ephah, about a gallon and three
quarters.
(14) You shall eat neither bread nor parched grain nor fresh grain until the
same day that you have brought an offering to your God; it shall be
a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
(15) 'And you shall count for
yourselves from the day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the
sheaf of the wave offering: seven
Sabbaths shall be completed. Pentecost.
Important: Before
any grain could be harvested in the spring, this unusual ceremony took place to
start the spring harvest season.
Notice, No one was to eat any of the grain of the harvest
until the first sheaf of the harvest was brought to the priest, who in turn
waved it before God.
This ceremony was
done each year by the Priests until the destruction of the Temple. The Priests would initially select and cut a
bundle of barley from the field, as a type of firstfruits selection.
"When
the time for the cutting the sheaf had arrived, .just as the sun went down on
the weekly Sabbath, three Priests each
with a sickle and basket formally set to work. Remember, after the Sabbath
was over.
The Priests made
sure that this ceremony stood out, they first asked the bystanders three times, each of these questions: `3
times.
Has the sun gone
down?’ They answer yes, ask 3 times
`With this
sickle?' `
Into this basket?'
'
On this Sabbath?’
–
and lastly, `Shall
I reap?’
Having each time
been answered in the affirmative, they cut down barley to the amount of ten
omers. Though ten omers, of barley, was
cut down, only one omer of flour, was offered in the Temple." Now it is established.
This cut out or selected out portion was called
the sheaf and was
prepared, ground into barley flour, very fine flour. This preparing was performed throughout the
night.
The
fine barley flour was then presented to God at the Wave Sheaf offering ceremony early in the day. (Sunday Morning around 9 am.)
This
sheaf was not burned on the alter,
but only presented as a symbol before God by putting, a handful on the altar,
then they would leave the rest for the use of the priests. When this is done,
then all the people are then permitted and not before, to begin harvest of the
barley crop.
1 Corinthians 15:20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
As the wave-sheaf offering represented Jesus
Christ Sacrifice as First of the firstfruits, then later, those of us who are
called and faithfully obey God in this life, are God’s Firstfruits
Nisan 18 – Sunday (Morning - Day)
After Jesus was resurrection back to life,
Jesus would not let His followers touch Him until after He had accented or
returned to His Father.
John 20:17
Jesus said to her, "Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say
to them, 'I am ascending to My Father
and your Father, and to My God and your God.' "
Mary Magdalene gives a message to the
disciples
John 20:18 Mary Magdalene came and told
the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these
things to her.
Only after Jesus had ascended to the Father and returned again were they allowed to touch Him.
Matthew 28:9 And
as they went to tell His disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying,
"Rejoice!" So they came and
held Him by the feet and worshiped Him.
Jesus
Appears to His Disciples
Luke 24:36 Now as they said these things, Jesus
Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, "Peace to you."
The
Ascension of Jesus
Acts 1:3 to whom He also
presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being
seen by them during forty days and
speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
Notice, 10
more days will be Pentecost
Acts 1:9 Now when He had spoken these things, while
they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.
