Exodus 12:14,17,24; cf. 24:8 - we see that the feast of the paschal lamb is a Perpetual ordinance. It lasts Forever. But it had not yet been fulfilled.
Christ initiates this on Passover to be the everlasting passover as promised. To be consumed as the old testament lamb was also. Otherwise God did not keep his promise forever.

Thanks for weighing in johngrace:)
Truly one does need a Catholic heart to see, but some have hardened their hearts to His words.
“Come back to me. With all your heart. Don’t let fear, keep us apart.”
“Long have I waited for your coming, home to me and living, deeply our new love.”
One of my favorites.
