Here is the way I teach the Passion week. It comes from the KJV. I make note of the version because certain elements can only be found in the KJV.
When figuring the day Christ died according to scripture we
need points of reference, Time Elements(TE). I will list the
time elements to make studying this easier.
TE: Six days before the passover. The passover is the 14th, so six days before is the 8th.
John 12:1 Then Jesus six days before the passover came to
Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he
raised from the dead.
Numbers 28: 16 And in the fourteenth day of the first month
is the passover of the LORD.
TE: Supper is the meal served after 6pm which starts a new day, the 9th.
Jn 12:2 There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.
TE: At least a full day of activities
Jn 12:3 Mary anointed the feet of Jesus,
Jn 12:9 Much people of the Jews came to see Jesus and Lazarus
TE: On the next day...the 10th
Jn 12:12 On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
Jn 12:13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.
What is important about the 10th day?
Exodus 12:3 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house:
Exodus 12:6 And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.
Christ the lamb comes into the house to be examined until the 14th when he will be killed.
