Is Feast of First fruits a pattern for the Rapture?

It could be. I’ll investigate more but Passover is a 7 day feast. Jesus was crucified on Passover on the 14th of Nisan. He was resurrected 3 days later on the Feast of First Fruits which is the 17th of Nisan.

Bible prophecy overwhelmingly points to the middle of the last 7 years as the rapture timing. So the resurrection of the dead happens at 3.5 years into the last 7.

In the same way, the resurrection of Jesus happened really midway through Passover week. The reason we can deduce this as a strong possibility is this:

Passover is from the 14th of Nisan to the 20th of Nisan. It is 7 days. If we count from sundown on evening of the 14th to halfway past sundown on the 17th which would be just before daylight, we are exactly midway through the 7 day Passover Week.

It’s easier to see if you draw 7 circles, each representing a day of Passover Week, marking evening at the top of the circle as the beginning of each day, you will land right there.

This is no accident, but even more evidence for the argument that the rapture of the church along with the resurrection of the dead is midway through the last 7 years.

Glory to God in the highest.
