Leviticus 23:6

4 These are the LORD’s appointed feasts, the sacred assemblies you are to proclaim at their appointed times.

5 The Passover to the LORD begins at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month.

On the fifteenth day of the same month begins the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the LORD. For seven days you must eat unleavened bread.

7 On the first day you are to hold a sacred assembly; you are not to do any regular work.

8 For seven days you are to present an offering made by fire to the LORD. On the seventh day there shall be a sacred assembly; you must not do any regular work.’”

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
