13:1-16 Like the Passover celebration, the practice of dedicating the firstborn memorialized what God did in the Passover event.

The annual sacrifice and eating of the lamb symbolized what God would do in providing a substitute in his Son, Jesus Christ; we who deserve death must be redeemed with a price, the life of the Son.
