For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed.

Behold, the Lamb of God!

Exodus 11:4-6; 12:29-30

All the firstborn of Egypt were killed.

“Kill it at twilight” in Hebrew means “between the two evenings.”

2 Chronicles 30:17-20

So Yahweh heard Hezekiah and healed the people.

1 Peter 1:18-19

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.
