How do we know Jesus is our true Passover?

Jesus being our Passover lamb is a pivotal doctrine in Christian theology, established through Scripture that outlines how the Passover lamb was to be without blemish and its bones unbroken (Exodus 12:46). John the Baptist calls Jesus the 'Lamb of God' (John 1:29), foreshadowing the ultimate sacrifice that He would make on the cross. The significance of this is demonstrated when Jesus gives His life at the exact time that Passover lambs were being sacrificed in the temple, indicating that He is the fulfillment of the old covenant’s requirements. His blood, like the Passover lamb's, redeems and protects His people from judgment, making Him the perfect and final sacrifice.
