Harmony of the Gospels

Harmony of the Gospels
And the Jew’s Passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. (John 2:13)

Jesus began His ministry in Cana of Galilee, went to Capernaum, and is now in Jerusalem.

Notice that John labels the feast of Passover as the “Jew’s Passover.” This is no longer the “Lord’s Passover”, as it was called in Exodus 12:27, “That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the Lord’s Passover, …..” It has become merely a religious feast, quite meaningless, just a ritual to go through. The one of whom the Passover speaks, has now come, "…..For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us.” (1 Corinthians 5:7)
