The Passover Lamb foreshadows Jesus

Jesus and the Passover Lamb were without blemish

Jesus and the Passover Lamb were killed by the whole assembly of the congregation.

The blood of Jesus and the Passover Lamb was smeared on wooden posts.

The blood of Jesus and the Passover Lamb protect people from destruction.

The death of Jesus and the Passover Lamb is a day of remembrance for ever.

The bones of Jesus and the Passover Lamb were not broken.

J. Clontz – Editor of the Comprehensive New Testament

Exodus 12:5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats:
Hebrews 9:14 …the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, …

Exodus 12:6 And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.
Matthew 27:25 And all the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!”

Exodus 12:7 And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.
Matthew 27:26 And when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

Exodus 12:13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.
Matthew 26: 27 Then he took a cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 For this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

Exodus 12:14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.
Luke 22:19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 20 Likewise he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

Exodus 12:46 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof.
John 19:31 Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. 32 Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who had been crucified with him. 33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34 But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out. 35 He who saw it has testified, and his testimony is true, and he knows that he tells the truth, that you also may believe. 36 For these things were done that the scripture should be fulfilled, “Not one of his bones shall be broken.”
