Context of Numbers 28:17

15Also, you must offer one male goat as a sin offering to the Lord. You must offer it with the proper drink offering. But you must still offer the regular burnt offering. 16On the 14th day of the first month, you must eat the Lord's Passover meal. Day 15 is the start of a week when you must eat the flat bread. You must not put any yeast in the bread. You must do that for seven days. 18The first day will be a holy day and all the people must meet together. You must not work at your jobs on that day. 19And you must give an offering by fire, a burnt offering to the Lord. The offering must be two young bulls, one male sheep and seven male lambs that are one year old. But these animals must not have anything wrong with them.

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 16-25The Passover, followed by the Feast of Unleavened Bread, was the first of five major annual feasts. It took place in early spring (March or April).
