For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed.
All the firstborn of Egypt were killed.
Exodus 12:1-13 – The institution of Passover
“Kill it at twilight” in Hebrew means “between the two evenings.”
Passover at time of Hezekiah
So Yahweh heard Hezekiah and healed the people.
Jesus Christ Our Passover
Redeemed with the precious blood as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ
Like a lamb that is lead to slaughter
About the ninth hour [the time between the evenings] Jesus cried again with a loud voice (John 19:30 “It is finished!”) and yielded up his spirit. (Luke 23:46 – “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.”)
The veil in the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. (Hebrews 9:12 – his blood shed for us obtained eternal redemption!)
By His wounds you were healed.
