Read To Hear: Exodus

DAY 12 OF 40

“Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the members of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight.” (Exodus 12:6) 

The Israelites gathered to slaughter the Passover lamb. Compare it to the death of Jesus! Why did they take the lamb on the tenth day and keep it for four days to slaughter it at twilight? 

Fact:

Jesus entered Jerusalem on the tenth day of the month and was put to death on the fourteenth day, exactly four days after his arrival.
