"This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord -- a lasting ordinance. It is the Passover sacrifice to the Lord, who passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt and spared our homes when He struck down the Egyptians." Exodus 12:14, 27
A very special part of our school year this year has been celebrating the Jewish feasts.
We enjoyed our Passover Seder on Good Friday, remembering when God rescued His people from bondage over 3,000 years ago. But as Christians we also remembered when God acted, rescuing all people from spiritual bondage -- when Jesus Christ, our High Priest, sacrificed Himself as the final Passover Lamb.
