Use this word search after you teach The First Passover (Exodus 12).

The story: The LORD told Moses and Aaron that every house of Israel should take a lamb, kill it in the evening, strike the blood "on the two side posts and on the upper door post," and eat it that night in haste, "with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand." The LORD said, "when I see the blood, I will pass over you," and at midnight He smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt but "passed over the houses of the children of Israel." This pointed ahead to Jesus, the Lamb of God.
