n"The rule of Rome was that the celebration must always be on a Sunday - the Sunday nearest to the fourteenth day of the first month of the Jewish year. And if the fourteenth day of that month should itself be a Sunday, then the celebration was not to be held on that day, but upon the next Sunday.
One reason of this was not
only to be as like the heathen as possible, but to be as unlike the Jews as possible."
- A.T. Jones, The Two Republics, p.214
