When was the last time Good Friday and Passover fell on the same day?
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.

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.
Why is Passover celebrated 7 days in Israel and 8 days outside of Israel?
Actually, Passover was established as a 7 day festival. In fact, Passover is still celebrated as a 7 day festival in the land of Israel. However, in the Diaspora, the festival is 8 days. The reason for this is that when the new moon was originally sanctified in Jerusalem, the messengers couldn't get to the Jews living in the diaspora in time in order to let them know when the festival was to begin. As such, Jews in the diaspora kept an extra day because of the doubt. Now, even though there is a fixed calendar, this tradition continues and the festival is 7 days in Israel and 8 days in the diaspora. The first day of Passover (first two in the diaspora) is considered a holy day (Yom Tov). On the first day the Jews left Egypt. The seventh day (and the 8th day in the diaspora) is also considered a holy day. On the seventh day the miracle of splitting the sea occurred. The days in between are the intermediate days of the festival.
Which two days of Passover can you not do any work?
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.
Did the Jewish Council meet during Passover in 30 AD?
No, there would have been no meetings of any sort as this would have been a violation of the rules of observance surrounding a holy day.
