As their house was under the Blood in chapter 12:5 of Exodus the mercy seat in Lev.16:12-14,Now they are being brought under the blood covenant with the Lord,This resembles our own relationship to God made possible by the Blood of the Lamb of God(1Pet.1:2 1Cor.5:7 Jn.1:29 1Pet.1:9 all allude to the Pasover Lamb.
More specifically, the New Testament identifies the passover Lamb,the young Lamb,sacrificed in place of the family's first born,
As a Type of the person and work of Jesus. Let's look at this(a type is a divinely ordained correspendence between a person,event, or institution and it's antitype or fulfillment).Most Biblical TYPES are fulfilled in the person and work of Jesus.
At the beginning of Jesus ministry John the baptist prophetically announced that Jesus was the Lamb of God. Paul states that Christ are passover was sacrificed for us.
1The passover Lamb had to be without blemish.
2Male
3Young
4 It had to be examined 4 days from the selection tothe sacrifice
5Had to be slain in public
6None of it's bones were to be broken
7It's Blood on the Israelites door posts was a sign tha God should not destroy that familie's first born.
I humbily submit this to you my brother's and sister's that Jesus met all these qualifications Sinless and perfect in His humanity He was both.2Male 3 some what young when He was slain 4He lived a meticulously examined life5He died publicly and despite the brutal death 6 none of His bones were broken(Jn.19:36).7Jesus Blood is the sign of Jesus's death through Jesus death,we are saved from the coming Judgement(Rom.5:9,Eph.2:13,Col.1:14,Heb.9:22;10:19, 1Pet.1:2 1Jn.1:7,Rev.1:5,7:14).Even as Abel who was killed by his brother(Gen.4:10).Whose Blood cried out to God even as the one more innocent than Abel was to have His blood shed as well Type of Jesus(Heb.12:24).In his manner of death Abel depict's the Savior Jesus.
The only difference one cried for revenge the other speaks of redemption.If Adam is the type of Him who was to come Rom.5:15
We died in the first Adam,Jesus is the last Adam where we have life.Amen!!!
