Almost 2,000 years before the crucifixion, when the pattern was repeated again, exactly:
Exodus 12 King James Version (KJV)
12 And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying,
2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
3 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house:
4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take it according to the number of the souls; every man according to his eating shall make your count for the lamb.
5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats:
6 And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.
7 And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses (IMHO a prelude to the sign of the Cross), wherein they shall eat it.
8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.
9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof.
Yes.
A side-note to this, not on direct point to this discussion but still interesting and relevant I think. Everyone inside the house covered by the blood was saved. However, those inside some houses were very frightened that they would be killed. Others rested in God’s promise and enjoyed their evening knowing they were safe and sound under the blood because of God’s promise. Regardless of whether they were afraid, all those inside houses covered with the blood were saved. The difference was the quality of life they spent while the passover took place.
Today, we have the same thing. Many believers in Christ still are afraid and worry about whether they will be OK and go to Heaven. But others know that Jesus blood is efficacious to do what God promised, knowing they are saved and going to Heaven, and are happy and enjoying life, resting in God’s promise. Like the Hebrews of old under the blood of the lamb, even more so today, all believers in Christ will be saved because of Jesus’ perfect sacrifice and blood. It’s just a question of the quality and peace in their lives depending on their faith in the grace and faithfulness of God’s promise.
