In this episode of Behold Your King, we explore God’s command to consecrate every firstborn in Israel and how that command pointed forward to Christ. The reading traces Israel’s deliverance from Egypt and the sacrificial system that reminded them of the Passover lamb whose blood spared their children. Luke’s account then brings us to the temple, where Joseph and Mary dedicate Jesus—yet while they offer a sacrifice for their firstborn, God is presenting His firstborn Son as the spotless Lamb who would redeem His people once and for all. Through Simeon and Anna’s prophetic words, we see Christ revealed as salvation, light for the nations, and the long-awaited Redeemer. This episode invites listeners to reflect on how Jesus’ perfect obedience and sacrificial death complete the story the Exodus began.
