The Passover And The Passover Lamb Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 9, 2022

Exodus chapter 12 tells the story of the First Passover and the connection with the final plague, the Plague of death. There is a definite connection from the Passover in the Old Testament and the Lord’s supper of the New Testament.
