Lesson 6
The Paschal lamb
Reading Portion: Exodus 12:1 – 11; 21-37
Lesson:
1. God told Moses and Aaron that on the 10th of the month (the first month of their year), the main man of each family had to go out and get a lamb. If his family is small, then he could share one with his neighbor, depending on the size of their family.
2. The lamb had to be a one year old healthy male.
3. On the 14th of the month, in the evening, they had to kill it. They had to smear the blood on the top and the two sides of their doors.
4. Then they had to roast the lamb and eat it with flat bread (unleavened bread) and bitter herbs.
5. They had to eat all of it. If they had any leftovers, they had to burn it. They had to eat it in a hurry, with a stick in their hand and sandals on their feet.
6. Nobody was allowed to leave their houses until the morning. That night, they all had to stay in their homes. God was going to pass over the doors that had blood on them. The doors that didn’t have the blood on them, the firstborn of those families were killed – including Pharaoh’s firstborn.
7. After all that happened, Pharaoh commanded that the Israelites leave Egypt. The Israelites were able to borrow things from the Egyptians for their journey.
8. There were more than 6,000 Israelites who left Egypt that day – following Moses, their leader.
Moral: The Israelites were delivered from Egypt by the slaying of the paschal lamb. In the same way, by the sacrifice of Jesus, we are delivered from sin.
Memory Verse: 1 Corinthians 5:7
Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
