“Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.”
You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified. The passion announcement is now a precise temporal declaration: the Passover is two days away, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified. The pairing of the Passover date with the passion announcement communicates the theological connection: the death that is about to occur is the true Passover, the fulfillment of the exodus event.
