Passover pt. 4 - The Sacrifice

A few weeks ago, a good friend of ours (and neighbor) captured an amazing video in the Old City of Jerusalem. It is a video of a Jewish Priestly Passover Sacrifice. To watch this video click here.

WARNING - This video is bloody and quite graphic. Parental discretion is advised.


I think this video is truly an amazing picture of another Passover sacrifice that took place. Paul and Peter both refer to it in the following.


1 Corinthians 5:6-8

6Your boasting is not good Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough?
7Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed.
8Therefore let us celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.


1 Peter 1:17-21

17If you address as Father the One who impartially judges according to each one's work, conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay on earth;
18knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers,
19but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ.
20For He was foreknown before the foundation of the world, but has appeared in these last times for the sake of you
21who through Him are believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
