Exodus 12 · Grade 2
The Lamb and the Door
Read the Story
God told His people how to be safe from the last plague. Each family took a perfect lamb. They put some of the lamb's blood on the sides and top of their front door.
That night they ate the lamb with flat bread and bitter plants. They wore their shoes and held their walking sticks, ready to go! God said, When I see the blood, I will pass over you.
At midnight, the last plague came on Egypt. But every house with blood on the door was safe. Pharaoh said, Go! God's people left Egypt. They were free! God told them to remember this night every year. It is called the Passover.
Memory Verse
“The blood shall be to you for a token on the houses where you are. When I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will be on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.”
