Historically the Passover of ancient Israel was a shadow of the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ which was the substance for which the shadow was a sign.

I do not see any teaching in the holy scriptures telling Christians to keep such feasts as the passover. In fact the holy scriptures tell Christians that the Lord Jesus Christ is their passover and that implies that union with him is fulfilment of the feast and all it was intended to signify.

Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed. (1 Corinthians 5:7 NASB)
