From the practice of the people of God, the heathen borrowed a similar one, founded on the same reason.

The destroying angel passed over the houses marked with the blood of the Paschal Lamb, so the wrath of God passes over those whose souls sprinkled with the blood of Christ. 1Co 5:7. As the paschal lamb was killed before Israel was delivered, so by the death of Christ, we have redemption through his blood. It was killed before the tables of the law were delivered to Moses, or Aaron's sacrifices were enjoined; thus deliverance comes to men, not by the works of the law, but by the only true passover, the Lamb of God. Ro 3:25. Heb 9:14. It was killed the first month of the year, which prefigured that Christ should suffer death in that month. Joh 18:28. it was killed in the evening. Ex 12:6. Christ suffered at that time of the day. Mt 27:46. Heb 1:2. At even the sun sets; at Christ's passion, universal darkness was upon the whole earth. The passover was roasted with fire, denoting the sharp and dreadful pains that Christ should suffer, not only from men, but God also. It was to be eaten with bitter herbs, Ex 12:8; not only to put them in remembrance of their bitter bondage in Egypt, but also to testify our mortification to sin, and readiness to undergo afflictions for Christ, Col 1:24; and likewise to teach us the absolute necessity of true repentance in all that would profitably feed by faith on Christ, the true paschal lamb. for in.Ex 12:29-42; 13:4; 23:15; 34:18 sacrifice.Ex 12:5-7; Nu 28:16-19; 2Ch 35:7; Mt 26:2,17; Mr 14:12; Lu 22:8,151Co 5:7in the place which.12:5,11,14,18,26; 15:20 eat no.Ex 12:15,19,20,39; 13:3-7; 34:18; Le 23:6; Nu 9:11; 28:17; 1Co 5:8the bread.1Ki 22:27; Ps 102:9; 127:2; Zec 12:10; 2Co 7:10,11; 1Th 1:6for thou camest.Ex 12:32,33,39mayest.Ex 12:14,26,27; 13:7-9; Ps 111:4; Lu 22:19; 1Co 11:24-26 there shall.Ex 12:15; 13:7; 34:25neither.Ex 12:10 sacrifice. or, kill.2; 12:5,6 at even.Ex 12:6-9; Nu 9:3,11; Mt 26:20; Heb 1:2,3; 9:26; 1Pe 1:19,20 roast.Ex 12:8,9; 2Ch 35:13; Ps 22:14,15in the place.2,6; 2Ki 23:23; Joh 2:13,23; 11:55 Six days.Ex 12:15,16; 13:7,8; Le 23:6-8; Nu 28:17-19solemn assembly.
