“And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire…Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire” (Exodus 12:8-9).
When the Israelites ate the Passover, they were to make sure that the lamb was roasted with fire. It could not be eaten raw, nor were they to boil it in water. It must be roasted with fire.
We know that the Passover is a picture of the Lord Jesus and His death on the cross. On the cross, during the three hours of darkness, He bore the full judgment of God for sin. The fire that roasted the lamb speaks of the judgment of God, and it could not be lessened in any way. Of course the lamb did not feel anything, for it was already dead, but the fire is a picture that shows us the suffering of the Lord Jesus for sin. He had to bear the full judgment for sin; it could not be lessened in any way, if our sins were to be put away. Today is the Lord’s Day, and He wants us to remember Him, and all that He suffered for us.
