before sunset (Our Wednesday about 6 p.m.), before the "high day" (the firstday of Feast began), our Wednesday sunset.
* The words in Mark 14:12 and Luke 22:7 refer to "the first day of
unleavened bread", which was the 14th day of Nisan, and therefore "the
preparation day". That is why the Lord goes on to tell the two disciples to go and make preparations for the Passover.
"THE FIRST DAY OF THE FEAST"-"THE HIGH DAY" (Yom tov)-THE 15TH DAY OF NISAN.
(APRIL 4TH)
(Our Wednesday sunset to Thursday sunset.)
THE FIRST NIGHT and FIRST DAY IN THE TOMB.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
THE SECOND DAY OF THE FEAST-THE 16TH DAY OF NISAN. (APRIL 5TH)
(Our Thursday sunset to Friday sunset)
THE SECOND NIGHT and SECOND DAY IN THE TOMB.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
THE THIRD DAY OF THE FEAST-"THE (WEEKLY) SABBATH"-THE 17TH DAY OF NISAN.
(APRIL 6TH)
(Our Friday sunset to Saturday sunset)
THE THIRD NIGHT and THIRD DAY IN THE TOMB.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
"THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK"-THE 18TH DAY OF NISAN. (APRIL 7TH)
(Our Saturday sunset: "the third day" of Matt.16:21, &c.; not the third dayof the Feast)
Thus, the resurrection 28:1-10 16:1-18 24:1-49 20:1-23 of the Lord took place at our Saturday sunset,
or there a bouts, on "the third day"; cp. "after three days" (Matt. 27:63.
Mark 8:31.
It will be seen from the above that we have neither power nor authority to alter or shift any day or date;
or to change the order or position of any of the events recorded in Holy Writ.
Each day is marked by a return to Bethany during the last week (up to the Preparation Day); and each day is filled with the recorded events.
It follows therefore, that the Lord was crucified on our Wednesday; was buried on that day before
sunset; and remained "three days and three nights" in the tomb, as foretold by Him in Matt.12:40; rising from the dead on "the third day", "the first day of the week".
The fixed days and dates, at either end, hold the whole period as in a vise, and place the whole subject on a sure foundation.
We are children of the Light (=Christ). All prophecy concerning God's children are given in days. The
first of the year occurs on the first day of spring, the vernal equinox. The Solar year is a perfect calendar. To find the exact day of our Lord's crucifixion, count 14 days from the first day of spring.
Below is a chart:
The date (near March 21 in the northern hemisphere) when night and day are nearly the same length and Sun crosses the celestial equator (i.e., declination 0) moving northward. In the southern hemisphere, the vernal equinox corresponds to the center of the Sun crossing the celestial equator moving southward and occurs on the date of the northern autumnal equinox. The vernal equinox marks the first day of the season of spring. The right ascension at the vernal equinox originally was in the constellation Aries and the point of crossing was known as the first point in Aries (now actually in Pisces because of precession 
).
The above plots show how the date of the vernal equinox shifts through the Gregorian calendar according to the insertion of leap years. The table below gives the universal time of the vernal equinox. To convert to U. S. Eastern standard time, subtract 5 hours, so the vernal equinox occurs on March 20, 2001 at 8:14 a.m. EST.
Note that the times below were calculated using VernalEquinox[] in the Mathematica application package Scientific Astronomer, which is accurate to within only an hour or so, and in practice gives times that differ by up to 15 minutes from those computed by the U.S. Naval Observatory (which computes March 21, 1999 at 01:46 UT instead of 01:36 UT and March 20, 2000 at 07:35 UT instead of 07:25).

Here is a QuickTime movie illustrating the tilt of the Earth's equatorial plane relative to the Sun which is responsible for the seasons. The dates of maximum tilt of the Earth's equator correspond to the summer solstice and winter solstice, and the dates of zero tilt to the vernal equinox and autumnal equinox.
