Moses and Aaron relay the instructions to the people of Israel. Be ready for departure, bags packed, travel clothes on, a quick meal prepared—no time to let the dough rise. Mark your doors with the blood of the lamb, so the angel of death will pass you by. To that generation, the instructions are present reality and hope for the future. The event is so life changing each succeeding generation is commanded to remember. We too are familiar with the command to remember. Passover and Eucharist are moments in which God's people are gathered around the mysteries of grace so that they may take part in God's ongoing power to redeem.
