Luke 22:1
The Passover ( πασχα ) Both names (unleavened bread and passover) are used here as in Mr 14:1. Strictly speaking the passover was Nisan 14 and the unleavened bread 15-21. This is the only place in the N.T. where the expression "the feast of unleavened bread" (common in LXX, Ex. 23:15, etc.) occurs, for Mr 14:1 has just "the unleavened bread." Mt 26:17 uses unleavened bread and passover interchangeably.Drew nigh ( ηγγιζεν ). Imperfect active. Mr 14:1; Mt 26:2 mention "after two days" definitely.
