First, there is the historical record of the deliverance of the children of Israel from Egypt at the first Passover.
Secondly, God gives instructions to remember the Passover and observe this time every year. This appointed time is given as an ordinance to God's people forever. (That's a long time)
Thirdly this Feast speaks to us as a picture and example of our own deliverance from the power and bondage of sin into living in relationship to God. Here God himself begins to teach us, provide our daily needs, and prepare us for the difficulties and warfare that lie ahead of us. The plan of God is to lead us into victorious living separated from everything not of Him. This is our fulfillment and our peace, but we cannot achieve this without a fight and it all begins with our deliverance from Egypt.
