Parallels Between the Exodus & Messiah’s Renewed Covenant Passover (03/28/2013)

Summary: In this episode, Maria draws parallels between the original night of Passover in the Exodus of Yisra’el and the fulfillment of Messiah’s Renewed Covenant Passover. When we see what took place on the night that our Messiah “ate the Passover” with his disciples, and we compare that to the first Passover when Yisra’el ate the Passover before leaving Egypt, we can clearly see that the night our Messiah ate the Passover meal with his disciples parallels prophetically to the night that the angel “took the firstborn” of the Egyptians. On the same anniversary date of when ancient Yisra’el had placed the blood on their doorposts, Yahuwshuwa illustrated that this “cup of salvation” (the 3rd cup) of the Passover Meal symbolizes the betrothal between the husband and the bride. Also, when Yisra’el struck the door posts with the blood, this parallels to when Yahuwshuwa foretold that the prophecy of Zechariah 13:7 was getting ready to come to pass that same night: Mattithyahuw (Matthew) 26:31 Then said Yahuwshuwa unto them, All you shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. And so the striking of the blood on the two doorposts was for the “Two Houses of Yisra’el” and this was the same night that death took the Egyptian’s firstborn. Also on this same night when Yahuwshuwa was about to be betrayed, a messenger of death was sent to take Yahuwshuwa (the firstborn from among the dead) and he also symbolized the House of Yahuwdah (Judah) who was the firstborn (the older son in the story of the prodigal). In other words, he was the shepherd that YaHuWaH himself would allow to be “smitten” for the sins of the firstborn sons (Judah)! And below, we can see where the gospel account matches the very same verbiage by the use of the word “smote:” Mattithyahuw (Matthew) 26: 67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands, 68 Saying, Prophesy unto us, you Mashiyach (Messiah), Who is he that smote you? Similarly, in Exodus 12:29, we read that the firstborn of the Egyptians were “smitten” as it says: “And it came to pass, that at midnight YHWH smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.” The night that Yahuwshuwa prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane, he sweat drops of blood (Luke 22:44). This parallels to when Yisra’el struck the doorposts with the blood.
