Passover has nothing to do with Jsus.

The Greek Text (the Xian bible) compares Jsus to the paschal lamb. It also says that he died on Passover, trying to tie Jsus in as the ultimate Passover sacrifice.

IF the authors of the GT (Greek Text) were Jews they were certainly ill educated. They not only have Jsus eating bread on Passover (forbidden in Torah), but the paschal lamb was a celebratory sacrifice NOT a sin atonement.

Not to mention that human sacrifices are an abomination to G-d and forbidden. Oops. These little details can be so distracting, can't they?

Qorban (what you call sacrifice) was never the ONLY way to be close to HaShem, it was only A way.

Qorban translates in concept to a "drawing near to HaShem.” Most qorbans had nothing to do with sin at all – they were used to thank HaShem and also to try and draw nearer to Him spiritually.

Jsus (if he isn't completely fictional) was NOT a valid qorban aka sacrifice – want proof?

Read the תנ״ך‎ Tanach (Tanach is the Jewish word for the bible. It stands for תּוֹרָה (Torah) which means Teaching and is the first five Books of Moses, נביאים‎ (Nevi'im) which means Prophets, and כתובים‎ (Ketuvim) which means Writings. The three words Torah-Nevi'im-Ketuvim when shortened become "T'NaK" or Tanach.

Back to Jsus and Passover. The Torah tells us that a sacrificial ritual must be administered by a Jewish priest. A Jewish priest must be a descendent of Aaron of the tribe of Levi. Roman guards weren't Jews let alone descended from Moses' brother Aaron. Read the book of Leviticus for lots of information on the priestly family as well as the rules for sacrifices.

According to the accounts in the Greek Text (GT), Jsus was crucified by Roman soldiers (Matthew 27:35; Mark 15:24; Luke 23:33; John 19:18, 23). No Jewish priest (kohen) anywhere in sight.

Torah further tells us that the blood of the lamb or goat sacrificed for the Passover had to be sacrificed INSIDE the Temple by a Jewish priest and its blood had to be put on the altar in the Temple. None of this was done with Jsus.

Torah further tells us that an animal sacrifice must be without any physical defect or blemish (e.g., Leviticus 4:3). According to the various accounts in the GT, Jsus was beaten, whipped, and dragged on the ground before being crucified (Matthew 26:67, 27:26, 30-31; Mark 14: 65, 15:15-20; Luke 22: 63; John 18:22, 19:1, 3). If you believe the Mel Gibson bloodfest on Jsus death he surely didn't meet THIS criteria either. Actually just because he was born a Jewish boy per the GT Jsus was circumcised on the eighth day after being born, a ritual that leaves a scar ("sign of the covenant"). According to the GT, circumcision is tantamount to mutilation (Philippians 3:2, Galatians 5:12) -- ergo unfit as a sacrifice.

Torah says that the Passover sacrifice be a male-goat or male-lamb and could only be offered by individuals (per household). Xians think Jsus died for everyone (Romans 6:10; Hebrews 9:12, 10:10, 10:18 ). That won't wash if he was a paschal lamb since a paschal lamb which could NOT be a communal sacfrifice. See Numbers 28:22.

Torah goes on to say that the Paschal Lamb was NOT to be offered for the removal of sins -- individual OR communal. It was a commemorative/festive offering to thank G-d for freeing us from slavery in Egypt. This is why I said the authors of the GT either weren't Jews or were poorly educated. If they wanted to tag Jsus as a sin sacrifice they should have called him the Yom Kippur goat. See Numbers 29:11 [individual sin-offering―male goat]; Leviticus 16:15 [communal sin-offering―male goat]). Actually the Yom Kippur scapegoat which took away all sins wasn't even killed. It was sent alive into the wilderness. Hmmm. Having trouble matching Jsus up to Torah aren't we?

The sacrificed Paschal Lamb had to be roasted and eaten. Apparently no one ate Jsus' body.

Torah teaches that sacrifices can only atone for sins committed PRIOR to the offering of the sacrifice. No sacrifice could ever atone for sins committed AFTER the sacrifice was offered. Thus, no sacrifice could ever atone for people born after the sacrifice was offered.

Torah vehemently FORBIDS human vicarious atonement (e.g., Exodus 32:31-33; Numbers 35:33; Deuteronomy 24:16; II Kings 14:6; Jeremiah 31:29 [30 in a Xian Bible]; Ezekiel 18:4,20; Psalms 49:7).

Human sacrifices are strictly forbidden in Torah (e.g., Leviticus18:21, 24-25; Deuteronomy 18:10; Jeremiah 7:31, 19: 5; Ezekiel 23:37, 39).

So, as you can clearly see that the death of Jsus could never atone for any sin, much less all sins of all people for all time? NOT AT ALL, NEVER! The story is pagan in its entirety and breaks all the laws of Jewish sacrifice.

So let's recap:

He sure wasn't the "paschal" lamb because that was not for atonement of sins.

Rabbi Tovia Singer has a good article on the subject at Outreach Judaism. The Egyptians worshipped the lamb as a G-d, so by slaughtering a lamb and putting its blood on the doorposts of their houses, the Israelite slaves were risking Pharoah's rath and a death sentence.

So slaughtering the lamb was an act of DEFIANCE (not a meek submission of a lamb to slaughter as Xians think). It was also an act of faith that HaShem would protect them.

After this initial paschal lamb G-d gave a commandment that the Jews forever remember it and sacrifice a lamb on Passover.

Let's get specific about the details. COULD Jsus have been the ultimate "lamb" sacrifice?

1)The sacrifice must be pure and unmarred "Your lamb shall be without blemish"(Ex. 12:5),(Lev 22:15-17). If Mel Gibson was right, then J* was more than "marred." He was bloodied and beaten. Per the GT (Mark 14) "the guards took him and beat him." Also read Mat 27:28-32.

a) The sacrifice must be brought by Kohenim without blemishes (Lev 21:15-17). Again, see Matthew 27 and Mark 14. J* had plenty of blemishes, "they stuck a reed in his right hand"(Matt 27:29) & "They took hold of the reed and kept striking him on the head." (Matt 27:30).

2)The Passover sacrifice was not a communal offering, each household had to do it (Ex. 12:3)"Speak to the community of Israel and say that on the tenth of this month each of them shall take a lamb to a family, lamb a household." Ergo if J* were a PASCHAL LAMB sacrifice his sacrifice could only be for "one household" not for all the people alive then -- let alone all future generations.

3) The paschal lamb must rbe oasted and eaten. (Ex 12:8) "They shall eat the flesh the same night; they shall eat it roasted over the fire." Was J* the victim of canabalism? Nope. He wasn't eaten, so again the analogy of J* to the paschal lamb is a bad one.

4) Finally, as I stated at the start -- the Passover sacrifice was not for the removal of sins . No where in that section are sins even discussed. The sacrifice was a commemorative sacrifice. (Exodus 12 and Leviticus 23).

Nope, not a sign of Jsus in the paschal lamb or in the Passover.
