What does the Bible say about Christ as our Passover?

Answered in 13 sources

Christ is our Passover Lamb, whose blood secures our deliverance from sin and judgment, fulfilling the type established in Exodus 12.

In Exodus 12, we see the establishment of the Passover, which serves as a foreshadowing of Christ as our ultimate Passover Lamb. When God commanded the Israelites to mark their doorposts with the blood of the lamb, He was prefiguring the atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross. In Hebrews 9:22, we read that 'without the shedding of blood there is no remission,' emphasizing the necessity of blood for forgiveness. Christ fulfilled this requirement, as He is both the Lamb provided by God and the means through which we are delivered from sin and death. He endured the divine wrath due to us, allowing us to escape judgment through His blood applied to our hearts.
