From Passover to Easter
Studies on the Feasts Volume I
Author: Derek White
Product code: BT25
Part of a study series which helps individuals or groups explore the Biblical Feasts in the light of their New Covenant fulfilment. Discover how Easter is actually a fulfilment of Passover - both in its timing and meaning.
Many Christians regard Easter as a purely Christian invention, while other believers may get tied up with its pagan associations and reject it altogether. Both these perspectives are wrong.
This study looks for answers to such questions as:
- Where did Easter come from?
- Why is it held at this time of year?
- Where in the Bible are we told to celebrate it?
- Has it any connection with the Old Testament?
