The only part of this sacrifice given to God was the blood; the rest was eaten by each family or discarded (what remains of it until morning you shall burn with fire) ⭐⭐As the Passover sacrifice was fulfilled in Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 5:7), the believer today can look back and see that as the blood was applied to each side of the doorway, then to the top of the doorway, as the blood dripped down from the top, the points suggested an abstract shape of a cross 🩸✝️ i. The blood on the doorposts showed that the sacrifice of the Passover lamb was to be remembered in daily life. You would see it every time you went in or out of the house. ii. And thus you shall eat it: Then, the lamb could be eaten – but only if it had been roasted in fire, with the lamb itself coming into contact with the fire, and with bitter herbs accompanying the meal. iii. “The paschal lamb was not killed in order to be looked at only, but to be eaten; and our Lord Jesus Christ has not been slain merely that we may hear about him and talk about him, and think about him, but that we may feed upon him.” (Spurgeon) Post Reply

I think it was to be a somber occasion much like communion is also to be somber in remembrance of Christ and his sacrifice and self-reflection. But we all can be happy we are not going to hell.
