Last month a small group of Jewish
believers, led by Rabbi Hillel Weiss who is the spokesperson for the newly
formed Sanhedrin, had hoped to offer the Passover lamb on the Temple
Mount. However, they were denied in
large part because of the coronavirus.
This month they were afforded the opportunity to celebrate the rite
based on the possibility of a second Passover (Num 9:10-11). Nonetheless, their plans did not
materialize. The first attempt would
have taken place on the 14th of Nisan (April 8, 2020). The second would have happened on the 14th
of Iyar (May 8, 2020).
