Thank you for taking a look †
Is it about THE LAMB--CHRIST? or a bunny?
Passover is in remembrance of the time in Israel’s history when the Lord moved through Egypt destroying the firstborn of all people and animals. This was the final of the ten plagues God visited upon Egypt designed to force Pharaoh (and his hardened heart, temporary relieved because of THE LORD) to let the children of Israel leave the country and their captivity.
As all the feasts are types for the atoning work on the cross by and through Christ, or walking as a Christian there after breaking bondage, from man, the world, a servant of and to sin. All = of the flesh.
Let's take note: Acts 12:4 Easter named there from the Greek is Paschal (from the Hebrew Pacach) = Passover in English. Why KJV then? Is any Bible perfect? It should be now as we have the utmost in obtainable knowledge for understanding. Even the KJV writers admitted to look them up for errors and mistakes. That of course, a great admittance in honesty.
Easter is rooted in Ishtar the queen of Heaven. The Babylonian man-made "goddess" for fertility rites, an excuse from already idolatry (serving-self, the flesh, the world, sin) through another made up god(s) to appear not selfish resulting justifying sex and orgies. With much in between of course. All negative.
Consider this twist: Adam (down to the children of Israel through Adam, the tribes in lineage of course) formed (molded) to cultivate/fertilize, now using that "fertilization" for the wrong reasons. For the "queen of heaven." (Jeremiah 7:18; 44:17-25). I'm really pointing this out why? False teachers want to call them Jews, that is only one tribe. They are Hebrews!!! Jew is one tribe, the tribe of Judah!!! Of course, the Gospel, and Word of God comes through them as it began with the Disciples. Do the twists ever end?
Moreover, how were these fertility rites expressed in evil works (from the hands as a result of the Spiritual condition). Eggs dipped in blood on the altar of sacrifice of their Infants/children. Also, likened to abortion. The reasoning may not be the same as abortion. Overall, self-serving, self-worship, idolatry. For their own selfish reasons.
Question for you: Since the tribes of scattered now until Christ comes back is this to be celebrated as Passover lamb and Christ, or a sacrificed bunny which did not hop on the cross to save...
Therefore, let's know and understand what we're doing. Consider the LORD all Holy. You may now say to me what does it matter? Then you must apply that to self while doing "easter/ishtar." If it does not matter then why anything at all is the point. Most important, Christ commanded it for good reason. Consideration and reflect hence remembrance. Just as say a loved one dies, a grand parent, parent, etc. It's always with us, but during the anniversary we recognize through consideration/reflection a little more. Doing so, it becomes more apart of us. Please look deeper into that, the resulting factors from there as well. I mean in remembering Christ as opposed to humans. We don't do special feasts/exclusive days of remembrance for them as with the LORD. The feasts/days bring us back to our beginning love and appreciation, thankfulness. Being satisfied nothing beyond that, beginning at BLOOD SHED ON THE CROSS.
Do bunnies and eggs sound like a strange rituals/customs yet?
1"And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
2This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
(New year symbolic in a new life, a new way of life after breaking bondage from spiritual to the physical. This month is Nisan, beginning on the first day of Spring/The Spring Equinox. This sets the Solar calendar for children of light, the same every year. Not as moons (months/lunar) for children of darkness. Passover begins at dusk 14 days after Spring. So when you wake up it will be the 15th day. Which of course, many consider to be the start of their day. So we would say 15 days after in that case. Days for Solar are from Dusk to Dusk to the next day. So we see just how easy it is for satan overall then man to change the order of things).
easter/ishtar of course was done in the Spring symbolizing new life as well (seriously? New life while selfishly sacrificing, CRAZINESS)! Moreover, her man-made son was named Tammuz.
Tammuz was fond of rabbits, and they became sacred in the ancient religion, because Tammuz was believed to be the son of the sun-god, Baal. Tammuz, like his father, became a hunter. The last irony he was killed by a pig.
Remember, on the fourth day God set days and years for time-keeping, not months. Please refer to the YouTube video study if needs be (Genesis 1--creation days).
3Speak 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:
Speak to all of them. Do they listen?
(Now of course the Priests would make sacrifices for the people. So, here we get the importance for each individual the LORD wants us to know and understand in remembrance. Knowing that each individual was saved by His hand from Egypt).
4And 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.
(So, the preparation begins in Passover week/Day one here. One lamb would feed a house/family of ten. Everything was to be consumed just as Christ. This also symbolic for sharing with your neighbor in joy. Everyone loves a good feast/meal/get together).
Luke 22; John 18 and 19. The 12 Disciples representing the 12 tribes. Eating the last supper (Communion in remembrance) before Christ was to be sacrificed. The upper room symbolic for Heaven and Heavenly places feasting with Christ.No lamb was eaten because Christ is the Passover lamb, our Passover and high Sabbath. Per I Corinthians 5:7-8 "purging out the old leaven." Physical types for our Spiritual then to the physical. As the Spiritual always results in your physical works. Heart, soul, to mind, to hands (works). What the hands do always symbolic for works figuratively.
5Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats:
(Just as Christ, spotless (without sin). physical blemish here representing Christ through the Holy Spiritual. Refer to Matthew 25 why Christ used that; Verses 31-46. If there was no lamb available a goat is permissible).
We also see the type at Christ second coming. How? The midnight cry as in Egypt as Christ comes like a thief in the night as the light, He is the light. On the day of the Lord a day of darkness, seen in the 5th vial just before Christ comes. (satan's kingdom darkness all over the land; Revelation 16. God's people there are "passed over" from God's wrath, gathered to Christ. Those who take the mark of the beast. Meaning, believing and then worshiping satan as Christ/God in bondage take God's wrath for doing so. Then you have the marriage supper of the Lamb, and the great supper of God--in the negative for those who take the mark; Revelation 19.
6And 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.
(So here is is. Beginning the 14th day after Spring/Spring Equinox).
7And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.
(The "upper room" seen here through the "upper post." This of course, household/family protection. Being saved, anointed, and protected by our Father through Christ. We do this in heart and mind of course. Why, would we not do it physically? We would lose all meaning from the type is why. God does not want physical rituals, and done before the Spiritual--the heart and mind. There is simply no lamb left. Christ was, is, and always will be our one time sacrifice. Hebrews 10). Notice the number 3 here. Symbolic for complete and Resurrection. Why the upper post is last, being lifted up inside from the blood of Christ).
We protect our homes/property/self with the olive oil (representing the Holy Spirit). Not because of the oil, but your obedience. Your obedience to the LORD, and not satan. Exodus 25 and 30. If needs be check the Gospel Armour/Armour of God video, and or written studies explained to a T. "Blessing and anointing study." In the written archive.
8And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.
(At night of course as referenced earlier, Christ and the Disciples ate as well in the upper room. Roast with fire symbolic for God a consuming fire. Our fire from the Holy Spirit, being lighted in this world of darkness. Christ = the bread of life).
This gets even better. Seen in Genesis 22. Abraham the first Hebrew in the type seen there to an exact with Isaac. Abraham looked up and saw Christ day, as Abraham stood in the proximity what it would be like physically to see Christ crucified. This is why Christ told the Pharisees Abraham saw His day; John 8. And of course Him being that sacrifice then of course going into bondage and how to be released from it. That order is no mistake my friend. Please check it out.
(Genesis 22:8) "Abraham answered, “God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two of them went on together."
9Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof.
(God wants our food cooked. This is of course to keep us healthy as a secondary result. Hold the Sushi too. The only "raw" food some of us have eaten. Why roasted (grilled for us)? Not any other method of cooking? A: Burnt offering.God always "kills two birds with one stone, but don't cook them. The point is relating the Spiritual to physical always benefits us through the Science).
To verse 10,
10And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.
(Christ is the bright and morning star. Amazing)?
11And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD'S passover.
(Loins girded = The truth. We already seen the type in keeping our lamps burning. Shoes on your feet for the Gospel shoes. Peace of mind head to toe wherever our feet take us. Staff = The Lord guiding/our dependency upon HIM).
12For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.
(And so it was, at midnight there was a cry made. Just as we will see the exact same in type at Christ second coming. Please refer to the midnight cry study, staying a Spiritual wise virgin with our lamps burning; Matthew 25:6; I Thessalonians 4:17; Exodus 12:29-30; Jeremiah 50:46. ALL referring to the midnight cry. A must read).
13And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.
(And it is now with the blood of Christ).
14And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever."
(Luke 22:19-20) "And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
20Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you"
AMEN!!! I really hope you enjoyed this study.
Thank you Lighted Lamp Ministries!!!!
