Jesus - the Afikomen?

4/23/2022

0 Comments

 

Exodus Study (pt. 13)


Today's video explores the Last Supper as a Passover Seder. 

The Gospel writers include details about the meal found within traditional Passover Seder celebrations. 

We can even discern where some of the disciples would have been sitting relative to Jesus that evening by looking closely at these details. 

Finally, we explore an element of the celebration called the Afikomen.

​Many scholars believe that the piece of unleavened bread (matzah) that Jesus identifies as his body is, in fact, the Afikomen.

Jesus, God's Passover Lamb

4/10/2022

0 Comments

 

Exodus (pt. 12)


​In this week's lesson, we look at the details about the Passover in Exodus chapter 12. 

We can then compare the details about Jesus that are included in the Gospels and the rest of the New Testament. 

The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus are nested within the holidays of Passover, Unleavened Bread, and First Fruits.  

The Gospel writers, in particular, are sure to include seemingly small details that help their audience point back to Exodus 12 and the original Passover Lamb. 

The New Testament writers see Jesus as God's Passover Lamb that has been offered to redeem the whole world.

Passover Introduction

4/3/2022

Exodus (pt. 11)


​In this video, we begin short three-part series on Passover. 

Passover is the most important holiday within the Hebrew Bible and for the nation of Israel. 

This lesson takes a ten-thousand-foot view of the Passover holiday and how it connects throughout the Old Testament and into the events surrounding Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection. 

We look into the "four expressions of redemption" (Exodus 6:6-7) and how it relates to the Passover meal that Jesus ate with his disciples the night before his death. 

Understanding the Biblical Holidays (Leviticus 23) and how they relate to Jesus is a goldmine for Christians to help them better understand the Gospels and so much of the New Testament
