By examining key Gospel passages, we’ll uncover the significance of the High Sabbath during Passover week and its role in this remarkable event.

You’ll gain a deeper appreciation for God’s perfect timing and the richness of His plan to save humanity. Whether you’ve pondered this question before or are hearing it for the first time, this episode will deepen your understanding of Jesus’ sacrifice and resurrection.
