What if They Didn’t Eat the Passover Lamb?(Exodus 12)
Leviticus is Fun

March 8, 2026
In Exodus 12, the Israelites were told to slaughter the Passover lamb and paint its blood on their doorposts. But there was another instruction that often gets overlooked: they had to eat it.
What would have happened if a family sacrificed the lamb, applied the blood… but didn’t eat the meal?
In this episode we explore the meaning of sacrifice in the Bible and why the Passover lamb was not just about death, but about participating in a covenant meal. Along the way we’ll look at the language of sacrifice in Leviticus, the role of food offerings, and how this helps us understand the Lord’s Supper.
