OK, did he die on passover, or a whole day before?
How could he die at passover, and still have a nice supper with his friends right after? you’re not thinking on this before you write.
His supper was obviously before his arrest, right? and trial, right? and torture, right? and carrying his cross to Golgotha? and by now the sun is setting again, and the passover lambs are getting close to being slaughtered for the passover, and he has to be crucified before the lambs are slaughtered, so that when the soldier’s sword pierces his side his blood flows at the same time as the lamb...
Did he have a time machine too?
He couldn't. Which is why he observed the Passover meal at the start of the 14th...just after sunset.

And he was killed during the daylight hours of the 14th...as the lambs were being slaughtered.
Why do you think that he had to observe the Passover meal after Passover was done?
Or I guess a more basic question is it your understanding that Passover begins on at sunset when 14 Nisan starts?
