Passover is God’s the first biblical feast in the new year and the Feast of Unleavened Bread is God’s second feast.

In this audio teaching, Valerie Moody explains that the Feast of Unleavened Bread begins the day after Passover, and is seven days long.

The Feast of Unleavened Bread is a yearly reminder of how quickly the Almighty brought Israel out of Egypt.  They left so fast that their bread dough did not have time to rise.  Therefore, people eat unleavened bread for a week every year to remember them of God’s timely deliverance from Egypt.

Egypt was a place that was full of leaven or sin.  In Matthew 16:6, Yeshua said, “Beware of yeast of Pharisees and Sadducees.”    Yeast, or leaven, represents sin which was so prevalent in Egypt that God brought Israel speedily out of there.

The Feast of Unleavened Bread is about avoiding leaven, or sin.  This Feast teaches us how sin multiplies.  A little sin can be much like leaven in bread.   If it is left alone, leaven will eventually multiply inside us, and leaven the whole lump.    In other words, sin will eventually multiply inside us, and pollute us completely!

Unleavened bread is such a complete picture of being free from sin that Yeshua referred to Himself as unleavened bread.  He did not have a Last Supper with His Disciples.  He had a Last Passover Seder.    In Luke 22:15, He said, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you, before I suffer.”   

At this Seder, He picked up a piece of unleavened bread, and said,

“This is my body which is broken for you!”

Didn’t He say that He was bread of life, in John 6:48?

Indeed!    He is the bread of life, and unleavened bread at that!
