Exodus 12 marks the pivotal institution of the Passover, a foundational event in Israel's history and a profound foreshadowing of Christ. God commands the Israelites to sacrifice a lamb, apply its blood to their doorposts, and eat a special meal, all to protect them from the tenth plague—the death of the firstborn. This chapter vividly portrays God's judgment on Egypt and his redemptive power for his people, culminating in their long-awaited exodus from slavery.
