What does it mean that the Passover lamb was without blemish?

Answered in 1 source

The Passover lamb being without blemish signifies the purity and perfection required in the sacrifice, pointing to Christ.

The requirement for the Passover lamb to be without blemish illustrates God's holiness and the standards of His law. This stipulation points forward to Christ, who was sinless and perfect. In 2 Corinthians 5:21, it states, 'For he made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.' This demonstrates that only a flawless sacrifice could bear the weight of sin, fulfilling divine justice while offering redemption to His people.
