In Exodus 12, God gave Israel a ritual: select a lamb on the 10th day, inspect it for four days, and sacrifice it on the 14th without breaking a single bone. Fifteen hundred years later, Jesus entered Jerusalem on the 10th of Nisan, was interrogated for four days by every religious and political authority, and was crucified on the 14th at exactly the hour the Passover lambs were being slaughtered in the Temple. The men who sought to destroy Him were, without knowing it, completing the ritual that qualified Him as the perfect Lamb. This study traces every parallel the inspection, the timeline, the hyssop, the blood on the wood, and the unbroken bones and reveals a pattern that no human author could have designed.
