Passover Lamb


And looking at Yahusha (Jesus) walking, he said "See the Lamb of Elohim!" - John 1:36. 

On the last night before Israel left Egypt, they had to offer a lamb at the first Passover to ensure that their first born were saved from been killed. 

This was the last plaque which ensured that Egypt would free the Israelites from slavery. 

The Passover feast was to be celebrated every year by the Israelites by offering a perfect lamb at Passover.

This feast was to be celebrated every year for all generations as instructed by Heavenly Father.  

This slightly changed when the Messiah came and died on the stake (cross).

No longer do we have to slaughter and offer a lamb every year but Messiah Yahusha was sent to be the lamb offering.

He took the place of the lamb, as John the Baptist said; "Messiah the lamb of Elohim."

 
How much more shall the blood of the Messiah, who through the everlasting Spirit offered Himself unblemished to Elohim (Almighty God), cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living Elohim?  

And because of this He is the Mediator of the renewed covenant, so that, death having taken place for redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, those who are called might receive the promise of the everlasting inheritance - Hebrews 9:14-15. 

Messiah is the slaughtered lamb which happened once and never has to happen again, see Hebrews 9:24-28. 

So also the Messiah having been offered once to bear the sins of many.......... - Hebrews 9:28. 

The Passover feast is to be celebrated forever, every year, not with a slaughtered lamb but by just acknowledging and praising Elohim on this day for what He has done for us.

 
He saved us, through His son the Messiah. 

We Praise Heavenly Father for sending His son, Yahusha Messiah (Jesus) to be our Passover lamb.
