Pesach (Passover)
The appointed time of Pesach and its surrounding themes contain all of the foundational principles of Biblical Christianity. In fact, the gospels and writings in the New Testament are out of context when read alone, and can therefore be surprisingly misleading. The following series of articles are meant to be read in order, and are designed to introduce each of these crucial ancient concepts. You'll also find encouragement to honor Pesach in your own home, as well as advice as to how. Further below is a verse-by-verse breakdown of Exodus 12, where the original Pesach instructions are found.
