[0:00] See, how all this is tying in together

[0:01] and it's like, when I first saw this, I

[0:03] was like,

[0:04] the parallel is incredible. It just

[0:07] blows your mind. And there's more there,

[0:08] but I'm giving you just some of the

[0:10] highlights. The second one that I wanted

[0:12] to mention

[0:14] is on top of page seven. And this one's

[0:17] also kind of condensed because

[0:20] for obvious reasons for today. But, the

[0:23] Passover of Exodus chapter 12 and the

[0:25] Last Supper of Matthew chapter 26 with

[0:28] Jesus. When Jesus celebrated the

[0:30] Passover, it was

[0:32] the the the same

[0:35] ceremony that mimicked what was

[0:38] happening in the Passover of Exodus

[0:40] chapter 12. It was the memorial, right?

[0:43] And so, what's going on in this original

[0:47] um

[0:49] sacrifice of the Exodus, the Passover.

[0:51] Well, first is the shedding of the

[0:52] lamb's blood. They have to take a lamb,

[0:55] a male lamb, 1-year-old, in its prime,

[1:00] perfect, which points to Jesus'

[1:02] sinlessness.

[1:04] And you are to slaughter it.

[1:06] Cut it, take the blood, and put the

[1:08] blood on the wooden door lintels and

[1:11] door posts of your home. And when the

[1:13] angel of death comes, it will see the

[1:15] blood, and it will pass over your home

[1:17] and not kill your firstborn son. That

[1:20] was the the deal.

[1:22] God's going to kill all the firstborn

[1:23] sons that don't have a Passover lamb and

[1:25] blood on the door post. Not only did you

[1:27] have to

[1:28] uh

[1:29] So, it says here, uh putting the wooden

[1:32] the blood on the wooden door post saved

[1:34] the firstborn son of the Hebrew people.
