The Feast of Unleavened Bread (Hag HaMatzah) is the fifteenth day of the month of
Nisan, which is the day following Passover (Pesach). It is a seven-day festival to
YHWH (Leviticus [Vayikra] 23:6-7; Exodus [Shemot] 12:7-8,14-17). On the fifteenth
of Nisan and for the next seven days, Elohim forbade the people to have any
leavened bread in their houses.
The festival of Unleavened Bread can be found in Exodus 12:14-17, as it is written:

The Book of Exodus chapter 12, describes the Egyptian Passover. After the lamb
was killed, the blood was to be put on the doorposts. The lamb was to be roasted in
fire and eaten with matzah (unleavened bread) and bitter herbs (Exodus 12:7-8).
He reinstated the celebration of the Festivals of YHVH and preceded that with the
removing of the “leaven”; the idols, mediums, sorcery est. This king is seen as one of
the greatest kings because of this act; going back to the Word of YHVH and
celebrating His Festivals and removing the “leaven” from the Land.
Do you want to be great in the eyes of YHVH? If yes, then you have to go back to the
Word and follow everything in it with all your heart, soul and might which starts with
the celebration of the Festival of Passover that symbolizes repentance.
Messianic Fulfillment. The spoon represents the tree that Y’shua died upon
(Deuteronomy 21:22-23). The leaven (HaMetz) (sin) was swept on the spoon (the
tree) as part of the ceremony. Likewise, our sin was swept or cast upon Y’shua (2
Corinthians 5:21) when Y’shua died upon the tree. The leaven (Y’shua upon the tree)
was then wrapped in linen and Y’shua was cast out of His house (His body) and went
to hell, which is a place of burning (Luke 16:19-24).
Thus He fulfilled the part of the ceremony where the father takes the linen cloth and
its contents and casts it into the fire to be burned.
Unleavened Bread was used at the Ceremony where the High Priest and
the Priesthood were initiated and Consecrated before YHVH for His Service
and purpose. This means that Y’shua, Who is our High Priest, had no sin
(leaven) and lived a set-apart life unto YHVH and we are His priesthood and
should also walked as He walked, without sin and have a set apart life
designed by Him for His purpose.

In the Bible, Elohim referred to the leaven of different groups of people. These are
the PROUD that did not submit under the Truth and would not change because they
had status or thought that they were right. These are listed as follows:
1. The leaven of Herod (Mark 8:14-15; 6:14-18; Matthew 2:7-12). Proud
because of Status and Authority.

These are the religious leaders who think that they represent YHVH on earth
and can change His Word as they see fit. They have a form of godliness
outwardly, but they are dead on the inside and bear no fruit.
3. The leaven of the Sadducees (Matthew16:6-12). The Sadducees did not
believe in the supernatural. They denied the existence of the Spirit of Elohim,
angels, and the resurrection (Mark 12:18; Acts 23:6-8).
4. The leaven at Corinth. The leaven at Corinth was sensuality, chiefly
fornication (1 Corinthians 4:17-21; 5:1-13; 6:1,9-11,13,16-18; 8:1; 13:4; 2
Corinthians 12:20-21). These are people that think that have the truth and
they applied the Blood of the Lamb, Y’shua, but refuse to leave Egypt (sin).
They normally have the same “phrase” they recite if you try to speak to them;
“I am saved by Grace and no one will plug me out of the hand of YHVH and I
am only save by His grace and nothing I do will cause me to go to hell
because I am not saved by works”. They are proud and refuse to submit
under the Word’s cleansing power and still look like Egypt and normally reach
no one in the world because their lives are just as dark.
