Passover – What is ACTUALLY Commanded? What is Tradition?
This Teaching examines Pesach (Passover) by separating explicit instructions in Torah from later customs and by considering how Yeshua fulfills the Passover pattern. The speaker discusses the original lamb and blood, the location and nature of sacrifice, roasting, unleavened bread and bitter herbs, memorial storytelling, and covenant participation. He argues that a modern seder contains traditions that are not themselves commanded, while acknowledging that a tradition is not necessarily sinful merely because it is extra-biblical. Because the temple sacrifice cannot currently be carried out in its historical form, he offers a simple, non-prescriptive approach for observing Passover today through Scripture, remembrance, a shared meal, and attention to Yeshua. Participants express different views about symbols, timing, and which original details remain practicable.
