The 14th of Nisan was Passover (not a Feast day). The 15th was the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread (a Feast day). No servile work was allowed on Sabbath or on the 15th (or on any other Feast days). Thus, they had to prepare before the weekly Sabbath and before a Feast Sabbath (no servile work on those days). Recall the reason they thought Judas went out (to prepare for the Feast on the 15th). See also Lev 23:2-8 and 2 Chron 35. | |
