Passover can never occur at the same time as Ascension because the newborn child must spend the time in Galilee to grow and mature so he can ride two donkeys into the New Jerusalem. That is to say, both the old and the new must enter or the old Jerusalem will remain in a place where there are no temples! IOW no yeast in the New Jerusalem.
