Easter Question: Can you add anything to how Jesus' sacrificial death...

[Dan The Man]

...mimics the passover lamb? Below are comparisons to Jesus' death to the passover lamb. What else can be used in that comparison.

Once a year at the passover the high priest would sacrifice a lamb for the sins of the people of Israel. It is this same high priest that turned Jesus (the lamb of God) over to the Romans to be crucified.

Jesus died around 3 pm on the preparation day, the exact same time the priests slew the passover lamb. So, the high priest that presided over the slaughter of the passover lamb presided over Jesus' death.

John 11:49-51, "And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation."
The high priest didn't realize he was prophesying that Jesus would die for their sins, but nevertheless he stated Jesus' death would save them from perishing. So, accompanying the higt priest turning Jesus over to be killed was this dedication of his sacrifice.

All the major feasts have some fulfillment in Jesus. The passover in his death. The feast of firstfruits coincides with his resurrection.

1 Cor. 15:20-21, "But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead."

The feast of Yam Kipur (day of antonement) commemorating when the books are opened for Judgement, will be fulfilled at the second coming when Jesus returns and all appear before the judgment seat of Christ.

The feast of penticost was fulfilled when Christ's church was born. The feast of succoth probably points to his birth, and the feast of tabernacles probably points to the millennial reign of Christ
It was no accident that Jesus died the exact moment the passover lamb was slain, then rose from the grave at the feast of firstfruits.

All sacrificial offerings were offered with salt. Lev 2:13, "And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season with salt. . . ."

2Chron. 13:5, "Ought ye not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt?"

So, the sign they hung over Jesus' head on the cross, stating "this is Jesus King of the Jews," signified the salt of his sacrificial death, his kingship residing in the covenant of salt given to the sons of King David.
