"Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month they shall take every man a lamb according to their fathers’ houses, a lamb for a household."

This verse introduces the institution of the Passover, a profound testament to God's mercy and compassion.

The Angel of Death has no power in those homes or on those people marked with the blood of the sacrificial lamb. Just as God's mercy spared the firstborn of the Israelites, liberating them from the bondage of Egypt, may it spare your household ; May the blood of the Lamb, the Ultimate sacrifice of Jesus, the Lamb of God and his blood bring us eternal redemption and salvation.

O most precious blood of Jesus Christ, save us and the whole world.
