The Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread Most churches teach that Christ finished the Plan of Redemption when He was crucified. But the very first event in Gods great plan for mans regeneration was the death of Christ. We find the operation of this great Sacrifice beginning in Eden, when God killed a lamb or goat, in order to cover the nakedness (type of sin) of Adam and Eve with skins. We find it operating when Abel sacrificed a substitute lamb. And so the Passover is the first of these events picturing to Gods children year by year His great plan. Let us understand it. Egypt is a type of sin. As Gods people are today in Babylon, and soon are to be delivered after God pours out His plagues upon Babylon, so they once were in Egypt, an were delivered after the pouring out of the plagues. Just as professing Christians have been deceived and have no knowledge of true time and Gods days, as well as the true worship of God, so it was with the children of Israel in Egypt. For over two centuries they had been in severe bondage in Egypt forced to work with taskmasters over them. There was no Bible no written Word of God. They were not permitted to worship God as He had ordained. They were forced to work seven days a week. They had lost sight even of the true Sabbath that is why God revealed to them the Sabbath in the wilderness of Sin (Exodus 16).
