The Jews have celebrated Passover for 3400 years. Moses told the slaves to eat Bread made without yeast in their homes and put the blood of a lamb on the door post. God had promised that night they would be free from Egypt. 1400 years after Moses, Jesus celebrated Passover the night before He died - He took the Passover Bread and put a new meaning on it. Jesus said, "This is My Body" - Jesus is the Passover Sacrifice - The Jews until today celebrate Passover all over the world once a year. The take unleavened bread at the end of their meal and it is called "The Afikomen". They break it, hide it, and then let the children find it, and then celebrate. This all points to Jesus -
JESUS DIED ON PASSOVER - it was a plan of GOD - to point to the work that Jesus would do on the cross by shedding His Holy blood by which sinners would be redeemed and set free to worship God.
The Afikomen at Passover points clearly to Jesus -
