What About Acts 124 KJV ?
  • Act 124 And when he had taken him, he put him
    in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions
    of soldiers to guard him intending after the
    Passover to bring him forth to the people. ASV
  • Act 124 And when he had seized him, he put him
    in prison, delivering him over to four squads of
    soldiers to guard him, intending after the
    Passover to bring him out to the people. ESV

What About Acts 124 KJV ?
  • NKJV, NASB, YLT, BBE, ISV, RSV, MKJV, LITV, NEB,
    Living Bible, LBLA, RV60, TAB, Illocano, Vulgate
  • PASCHA, (3957) mistranslated 'Easter' in
    Ac.124, KJV, denotes the Passover (RV). The
    phrase 'after the Passover' signifies after the
    whole festival was at an end. The term Easter is
    not of Christian origin. It is another form of
    Astarte, one of the titles of the Chaldean
    goddess, the queen of heaven. The festival of
    Pasch held by Christians in the post-apostolic
    times was a continuation of the Jewish feast, but
    was not instituted by Christ, nor was it
    connected with Lent. From this Pasch the pagan
    festival of Easter was quite distinct and was
    introduced into the apostate Western religion, as
    part of the attempt to adapt Pagan festivals to
    Christianity.

Religious Holy Days Gal.48-11
  • Gal.48 Formerly, when you did not know God, you
    were enslaved to those that by nature are not
    gods.
  • Gal.49 But now that you have come to know God,
    or rather to be known by God, how can you turn
    back again to the weak and worthless elementary
    principles of the world, whose slaves you want to
    be once more?
  • Gal.410 You observe days and months and seasons
    and years!
