pass over lamb.

Exodus 12; Speak to all the congregation of Israel,
saying, ‘On the tenth of this month they are, each one, to take a lamb for themselves, according to the fathers’ households, a lamb for each household.
4 Now if the household is too small for a lamb, then he and his neighbour nearest to his house are to take one according to the number of persons in them;
in proportion to what each one should eat, you are to divide the lamb.
5 Your lamb shall be an unblemished male a year old;
you may take it from the sheep or from the goats.
6 You shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month, then the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel is to slaughter it at twilight. . Moreover, they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.

I will go through the land of Egypt on that night, and fatally strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the human firstborn to animals; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments—I am the LORD.
13 The blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you live; and when I see the blood I will pass over you, and no plague will come upon you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.
The blood of the lamb will let death pass over!......

So, also Christs death on the cross, as He died for all, will pass death over, but you must accept that He died for you.

It is the LORD’S Passover

. Where it says, “You shall keep it until the fourteenth of the month”.....
I used to work with a lovely Lebanese lady, Anna.
She was a Christian as was her family. She told me, that Christians in Lebanon, when they still lived there, took a lamb as described here, and kept it in the house, for a pet.

The children loved this little lamb, but it was the lamb, that was to be slaughtered and sacrificed, for the family, as the bible said.
She said it was so sad, as her and her siblings had started to love that little lamb.

Blessings...
