And on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they killed the Passover lamb, his disciples said to him, “Where will you have us go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?”
Mark 14:12
In the first part of this verse, "Killed the Passover" refers to the lamb, not to the ritual or the day. So in the second part, "eat the Passover" also refers to the lamb, not to matzo or a seder or some other special meal. Yeshua's disciples were preparing to eat a Passover lamb the night before he was crucified.
And on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they killed the Passover lamb...
Mark 14:12
Human language is rarely precise. Never make the mistake of reading Scripture as if it's a computer program in which every word has only one possible meaning. In Mark 14:12 "the first day of Unleavened Bread" doesn't mean first day of the week of Unleavened Bread, but the first day of the official ceremonies, which is actually the day *before* Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb is killed.
This isn't an error in the text. It's just a reflection of how real people speak of things. For those who celebrate Christmas, there's only one Christmas Day and yet there are also the "Twelve Days of Christmas". People and Scripture also use the term "Passover" to refer to the day before Unleavened Bread begins, or the full week of Unleavened Bread, or the weeks leading up to Passover, or just only the Passover lamb, as in this verse.
Happy Unleavened Bread!

With so many people in the world who are adamant their traditions are more valuable than the Biblical narrative is easy to see why so many will miss the narrow gate. Isaiah 35:8, “And there will be a highway called the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not travel it--only those who walk in the Way--and fools will not stray onto it.”
