Moses instituted Passover just before the 10th Plague in Egypt on Abib(Nisan) 14, 1513 BCE(Exodus 12:17-20, 24-27). The death of Jesus Christ took place on the Passover Day, Nisan 14, 33 C.E. according to the Jewish calendar(Matthew 26:2; John 13:1-3; Exodus 12:1-6; 13:4), which would have been over 1500 years later.

Scholars point out that the events described in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) could have been accomplished in a few weeks. There is no mention of the Passover from the beginning of his mission until the final journey to Jerusalem and for these reasons they believe that his entire mission appears to have taken no more than a year.

On the other hand, John's Gospel, by its references to the Passover (John 2:13, 6:4, 11:55, 12:1, 13:1), indicates that, for its author, the mission of Jesus lasted three years.

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 years were between the first passover and the passover when Jesus died?

It depends on when you believe the Exodus to have happened and when you believe that the Last Supper took place. Historians are not certain if either event took place, let alone when they took place. However, most people place roughly 1300 years between the Exodus and the Last Supper.

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.

How many years did Jesus teach before the last supper?

The mission of Jesus that is described in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) appears to have lasted less than one year. In these accounts, Jesus only went to Jerusalem for the Passover on one fateful occasion.In John's Gospel, Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Passover at least three times, so in this account his mission certainly lasted at least three years.
