The First Passover In Egypt
Tonight, the blood of the lamb has been painted on the doorposts of the Israelite homes in Goshen. The Angel of Death has passed through the land of Egypt, striking down the firstborn but "passing over" the houses covered by the blood. The centuries of slavery are ending tonight.
"For Yahweh will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when He sees the blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, Yahweh will pass over the door..."
— Exodus 12:23
