    If one understand Christ was crucified in 30 A.D. then this year 2020 has the similar Passover week.


    April 8th, Wednesday, corresponds to Mark 14:12, Exodus 12:18.
    That Evening of Wednesday coresponds to Mark 14:17.
    The Thursday evening, sundown, Mark 15:42.
    Sunday April 12th corresponds to Mark 16:1.

    Yes. Sir Isaac Newton calculated that date for a Nisan 14th crucifixion on a Friday.

    literally the 14th of Nisan was the day before Jesus' crucifixion per Mark 14:12 being that date. Exodus 12:18.

    The day before Jesus' entry (John 12:12, "On the next day . . .") into Jerusalem was 6 days before the Passover (John 12:1). And that day was not the 7th day Sabbath, John 12:2, ". . . made . . . a supper; . . ." So that entry into Jerusalem was not our Sunday. In 30 AD the Passover, Mark 14:12 fell on our Wedensday. The supper being made on our Thursday, the 6 days before the Passover, the next day would be our Friday. Palm Friday, if you will.

    The day of the week remains the same between the Julian and Gregorian. The day dates are different. The Jewish calendar days and dates otherwise remain the same.

    On the Calendar Converter, Calendar Converter , in the Jewish calender enter year 3790 month Nisan day 14. It is a Wednesday. Change the year to 5780. Change the year to 3793.

    Or you can do the moon calcuations yourself: https://assets.cambridge.org/97805211/46548/frontmatter/9780521146548_frontmatter.pdf

    Now note Mark 14:12-16 is explicitly the Passover, Exodus 12:18, first day of unleaven bread.
