Implications of Passover and Consecration

Traditionally, Jewish families celebrate Passover by holding a ceremonial meal called the Seder, which includes special symbolic foods, especially unleavened bread known as matzo. According to the book of Exodus, God commanded Moses to instruct the Israelites to slaughter a lamb and mark their doorframes with its blood. They were also given specific instructions for consuming the lamb that night. On that night, God sent the angel of death to bring about the tenth plague, striking all the firstborn in Egypt. When the angel saw the blood on the Israelite homes, he passed over them so that the plague did not enter.

God’s Provision for the Consecrated

Consecration is best understood as the divine mission to bring humanity into God’s salvation plan, which began at the creation of the world. God carries out this life-giving mission through His chosen consecrated community, which exists to display the glory of God.
