A:Passover was a time for sacrificing a lamb in the Temple and sharing the meat in memory of the story of the Israelite flight from Egypt. It is possible that in practice there were more than one lambs sacrificed on the day. The sacrificial meat was generally eaten in the Temple precincts, but could be eaten anywhere in Jerusalem, as the synoptic gospels describe Jesus and the apostles doing.

As the Israelites finished eating the Passover lamb, God smote the Egyptian firstborn (Exodus ch.12). A great cry was heard throughout Egypt, and the panicking Egyptians pressed the Israelites to leave.

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.
