Exodus 12:12-15: On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn - both men and animals - and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD. The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt. 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.

Luke 22:14-20: When the hour came, Jesus and His disciples reclined at the table. And He said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfilment in the kingdom of God.” After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. For I tell you I will not drink again the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after the supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is a new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.”

I Corinthians 5:7-8: Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast - as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.

John 4:23-24: God is spirit, and his worshippers must worship in spirit and in truth. The woman said, “I know that Messiah”, (called Christ) “Is coming. When He comes He will explain everything to us.” The Jesus declared, “I who speaks to you am he.”

1 Peter 1:3-5: Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!
