The ''Palm'' title refers to the Palm branches which people placed on the road as Jesus entered Jerusalem.

All that can really be said for sure is that if it happened at all it must have been between 26 AD and 36 AD, because that's when Pilate was governor of Judea. The majority of scholars place it in either 30 AD or 33 AD, and it would have been on the Sunday prior to "Nisan 15" in the Jewish calendar. Figuring out exactly when that was is, however, tricky, since it was determined observationally. Best guesses for the date of the crucifiction are April 7, 30 AD or April 3, 33 AD, and Holy Week would have started 5 days prior to that (April 2, 30 AD or March 29, 33 AD).

How many attended the Passover in Jesus' day?
It is estimated that thousands of people attended the Passover in Jesus' day, as it was a significant religious event for the Jewish people. Jerusalem would have been crowded with pilgrims coming to celebrate the holiday.
Does Easter Holiday Start on Good Friday?
No. It starts on palm sunday, that's when Jesus arrived on a donkey in Jerusalem. Good Friday is the day Passover was celebrated and the day that Jesus was cruxified on. The Saturday after that, Jesus was buried and on Sunday, He rose from the dead. He ressurrected.
What happened to Jesus after the Passover?
In the synoptic gospels, the Last Supper marked the day of the Passover, a day that Jews mark by a ritual meal. The next day, he was tried, crucified and buried. In the Gospel According to John, Jesus washed the feet of the disciples on the day before the Passover, with no particular emphasis on the supper they had. Jesus was tried, crucified and buried on the day of the Passover.
What Jesus feast was Jesus celebrating at the last suppe?
It was the Passover evening meal. He was crucified on the Passover day as in Jewish tradition, a day begins and ends at sunset.

What 'Jewish' feast day did Jesus have the Last Supper on?
Jesus fulfilled the Passover as was given to Moses as an example of His coming. For some Christians, Passover is a memorial of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, "our Passover" which made possible the forgiveness of our sins.
What happened on the evening of good fiday?
If you believe as many do, that Jesus died on Passover, than Jesus died at the same time that the Passover Lamb was being killed in the temple. At 3:00 PM. So Jesus is our passover Lamb, the Feast of Passover was only a picture of what Jesus was going to do for us as Hebrew chapter 10 teaches us. There is some thought that Jesus died on Thrs. not Friday, But no matter what, it was the day of Passover. The mix up comes because the day after His dieth was the sabbath (Saturday). But the day after Passover is the day of Unleaven Bread. It is a high day, the same as a sabbath and is none as a sabbath. So that might be what is meant when the Bible says Sabbath.
What happened the day after Jesus celebrated the passover supper?
He returned to Galilee
What day of Passover did Jesus die on the cross?
The Jewish calendar has days starting at nightfall and proceeding to the next evening.In the synoptic gospels, , the Passover was on Friday on the year of the crucifixion. The Last Supper was the Feast of the Passover, which occurred on Thursday evening and therefore in the Jewish calendar just as Friday began. In these gospels Jesus died on the cross on the day of the Passover.John's Gospel sought to draw a parallel between Jesus and the paschal lamb, so moves the Passover to Saturday. It omits the Passover meal and, although Jesus was still crucified on Friday, it was the day of preparation for the Passover (John 19:14: "And it was the preparation of the passover ..."
Did Jesus celebrate the Passover before he died?
A:In the synoptic gospels - yes. When Jesus and the disciples celebrated the Passover feast, this would become the Christian Last Supper. After the supper was finished, they sang a hymn (Mark 14:26), as was the practice at the end of the Passover meal. For theological reasons, John's Gospel places the crucifixion on the day of preparation for the Passover - the day before. Jesus did not celebrate the Passover.
How many Passovers did Jesus have in his early ministry?
A:New Testament scholars have noted that the events described in the synoptic gospels appear to have occurred in the space of less than a year and that the only time Jesus went to Jerusalem, the Passover feast was the evening prior to his crucifixion. On the other hand, John's Gospel clearly spaces the mission of Jesus over three years and in this gospel his third Passover occurred on the evening following his crucifixion.Another Answer:Others have said there were 4 Passovers from the beginning of His ministry to His Crucifixion on Passover Day (Jewish tradition had days beginning at sunset with the night portion coming first). Sir Isacc Newton was a believer in four.If His ministry began in the Autumn of His 30th year - some date this to 27 AD, then the first Passover would come about 5 months into His Ministry which lasted 3 1/2 years. He died at the 4th Passover in 31 AD as our Passover Lamb.
The link between Jewish Passover and Jesus Christ?
The Passover remembers the time when the Jews were being feed from slavery in Egypt. As a final miracle to convince Pharaoh to let them go, God sent the angel of death to strike down the first-born in all Egypt's families. To indicate that the angel should "pass over" the house of a Jewish family, the family was to slaughter a lamb and sprinkle the lintels of their doorway with its blood. Jesus was proclaimed by John as "the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world". One of the connections to Passover is that Jesus was killed for us so that our sins are forgiven and we will live forever with God. In this sense Jesus acts as the Passover sacrificial lamb for us. In addition, there was a more practical connection in that Jesus came to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover and the Last Supper with his disciples was the Passover meal.
