What does the Bible say about the Passover?

Answered in 54 sources

The Passover is a significant event in the Bible that represents God's deliverance of His people from slavery in Egypt, ultimately foreshadowing Christ as our Passover Lamb.

The Passover is rooted in the history of God's promise to Israel, as it commemorates their deliverance from slavery in Egypt. It was instituted during the final plague when God instructed the Israelites to mark their doorposts with the blood of a lamb so that the angel of death would pass over their homes. This event signifies God's grace and mercy in sparing His people. Additionally, Jesus Christ is identified as the ultimate Passover Lamb, whose sacrificial death liberates believers from sin and judgment, as highlighted in John 1:29, where John the Baptist proclaims, 'Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.' Therefore, the Passover serves as a reminder of God's faithfulness and as a symbol pointing to the redemptive work of Christ.
