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