The Festival of Passover starts on the 15th of Nissan on the Hebrew calendar. Because it's a solar-lunar calendar, the date of the 15th on a modern civil calendar varies from year to year, but it's always a spring full moon. Historically, in the days of the Temple in Jerusalem, the Passover sacrifice was done during the day of the 14th, and then the meat of the Paschal lamb was taken home and prepared for the festival dinner that evening. In the Hebrew calendar, days start at sunset, so the evening would be the 15th.
The 15th of Nisan, the first day of Passover on the Hebrew calendar, never falls on a Friday due to rules that govern on what days of the week a year may begin. However, it's neither surprising nor coincidental that Passover usually begins during Holy Week, because the Last Supper that we celebrate on Holy Thursday was actually a Passover Seder. That's why communion wafers are unleavened.
The two days of Passover when no work is allowed are the first day (Passover Day) and the seventh day (the last day of Passover). On these days, Jews are prohibited from engaging in any form of labor or work, as it is considered a day of rest and dedication to religious observances.
