OT Easter
A little info about the Jewish Passover celebration and Jesus. This info is in the Bible but isn't put together for us, so I'm attempting to make a few of the many connections with this post. The Jewish people have celebrated their Passover since the days of Moses. They would prepare to sacrifice a lamb to their God. They would look for a perfect lamb, without spot or blemish, to be a worthy sacrifice. They would isolate this lamb and observe it for a while to see if there was any flaw in it. After a predetermined time, if they found no fault in the lamb, they would declare it to be a worthy sacrifice. At the same moment that the Jews were setting their lamb apart, Jesus was being taken into custody. For the period of time the lamb was being observed, Jesus was being examined and was on trial. At the same moment their lamb was being declared without fault, Jesus was being declared without fault, innocent of what they accused him of. At the same time the lamb was being sacrificed, Jesus was being sacrificed on the cross. Other connections-- Part of the Passover celebration included eating a bitter herb that would make their eyes water, the Jews would perform this at the same time Jesus' friends were weeping for him. The unleavened bread they would prepare would have stripes from the grill marks, the browning would resemble bruises, and it would be pierced. The unleavened bread represented Jesus being without sin, the stripes when he was beat with a whip, and he was pierced with a spear as he hung on the cross. There are other connections between the Passover celebration that the Jews were practicing for hundreds of years before the time of fulfillment in Jesus. You can learn about the Passover celebration from Jewish history apart from Christianity and see the events that unfold the same day and hour as it was happening to Jesus. I just thought this was interesting because the details of the Passover are from the Old Testament coincide with the details of Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection are in the New Testament, but I haven't found this info put together in the Bible.

RogerN Hi, Roger. You seem to be an expert on the subject, so perhaps you can answer a few questions about the tradition. How many lambs were chosen as possible subjects for the sacrifice? Were buck and ewe lambs given an even start, or were ewe lambs defective at birth? Were wethers included in the study? How many lambs were chosen for the event? Just who were the judges of the lambs and how did they decide? Did they vote? What was the recourse if a lamb was chosen and after killing it, it was found to be defective? Were the lamb judges ever paid to choose a particular animal? Did the judges ever reach an impass on deciding which animal to take? Did the judges only look at the wool or did they take other characteristics into consideration? TIA Paul |
