Exodus 34:25
Excerpted from: The First Day of Unleavened Bread (Part One)Let us consider this in regard to sacrifices and leaven. With the sacrifices, leaven equates with sin, and what was burned on the altar was understood, and is understood, to have been God's meal offered by those who were offering it, and the burning of it on the altar pictured God eating it.
Let us add one more thing to this. Once one realizes that all of the sacrifices of Leviticus—one, two, three, four, five—symbolize the level of Jesus' devotion to God and to man and that He did this without sin, then we can grasp that as we are to be living sacrifices following in His steps, we are to strive that no service of ours to God or to man is to contain sin. In other words, our sacrifices of our lives are not to be done with sin.
Do not forget that the Passover meal was a sacrifice symbolizing the sinless Jesus Christ, and that the lamb was the meal. The Passover sacrifice done in the Israelite's home was a type of the Peace Offering, during which God, the priest, and the offerer are shown in fellowship eating a meal together in peace. This is one reason why the lamb had to be completely burned up before the morning, because that was symbolic of God consuming His portion of the meal completely. He was completely satisfied.
