THE SECOND PASSOVER AND THE RESTORATION OF THE AARONIC PRIESTHOOD

This is mildly interesting (snatched off of FB):

Numbers 9:9-12
9 ¶And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover unto the Lord.
11 The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
12 They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it.
What is significant about the "second passover" is that it was kept by all Israel during Hezekiah reign. This was done because the Priest aka Levites had not sufficiently sanctified themselves for the regular passover.
What is also significant is that in 1829 it started the next evening after Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdrey recieved the Aaronic Priesthood
