According to the date of the festivity, the reference of the historical relation, the allocation of Deut 16,3a, the criterion of readability, and the information found in the subsumption in Deut 16,16 the rules for the Pesach have been interpolated and interlocked into the regulation concerning the feast of the unleavened bread in Deut 16,1-8. This is strengthens the theory that the Pesach does not belong to the ancient festivities of Israel but rather is an innovation during the time of Josiah.

SUMMARY
According to the date of the festivity, the reference of the historical relation, the
allocation of Deut 16,3a, the criterion of readability, and the information found in
the subsumption in Deut 16,16 the rules for the Pesach have been interpolated and
interlocked into the regulation concerning the feast of the unleavened bread in
Deut 16,1-8. This is strengthens the theory that the Pesach does not belong to the
ancient festivities of Israel but rather is an innovation during the time of Josiah.
