But not a dog shall growl against any of the people of Israel, either man or beast, that you may know that the LORD makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.’ (Exodus 11:7, ESV)
God makes clear distinctions between his elect and the rest of the world
The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt. (Exodus 12:13, ESV)
This points forward to the blood of Jesus which when applied to our lives as disciples causes God’s anger and judgement for sin to pass over us
The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. (John 2:13, ESV)
Amazing how well linked this bible reading plan is, we read all about the Passover today in the OT passage and now this is how the NT passage opens
