Context
The First Passover
9Do not eat any of the meat raw or cooked in boiling water, but only roasted over the fire—its head and legs and inner parts. 10Do not leave any of it until morning; before the morning you must burn up any part that is left over. 11This is how you are to eat it: You must be fully dressed for travel, with your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. You are to eat in haste; it is the LORD’s Passover.…

Do not leave any of it until morning;
This command is part of the instructions for the Passover meal, which the Israelites were to eat in haste as they prepared for their exodus from Egypt. The urgency of the command reflects the immediacy of their departure. In a broader biblical context, this instruction emphasizes the importance of obedience and trust in God's timing. The prohibition against leaving any of the lamb until morning signifies the completeness of the sacrifice, which is a type of Christ, the Lamb of God, whose sacrifice is complete and sufficient for salvation (John 1:29). The command also underscores the need for readiness and faith, as the Israelites were to be prepared to leave at a moment's notice.

before the morning you must burn up any part that is left over.
The requirement to burn any leftovers ensures that the sacrifice remains holy and is not profaned by decay or misuse. This practice of burning remains is consistent with other sacrificial laws found in Leviticus, where offerings not consumed by the priests were to be burned (Leviticus 7:17). The act of burning signifies purification and the complete dedication of the offering to God. In a typological sense, this can be seen as a foreshadowing of Christ's complete and unblemished sacrifice, which leaves nothing lacking in the atonement for sin. The burning of leftovers also symbolizes the finality and totality of God's deliverance, as the Israelites were to leave nothing behind in Egypt, just as believers are called to leave their old lives behind in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17).

2. Israelites

3. Egypt
The land where the Israelites were enslaved and from which God was delivering them through the events of the Passover.

4. Passover

Teaching Points
Obedience to God's Commands
The instruction not to leave any of the Passover lamb until morning highlights the importance of complete obedience to God's commands. Partial obedience is not sufficient in God's eyes.

Symbolism of Completeness
The burning of leftovers signifies the completeness and finality of God's deliverance. It reminds us that God's work in our lives is thorough and leaves nothing unfinished.

Urgency in Spiritual Matters
The directive to consume the lamb by morning underscores the urgency with which we should approach spiritual matters. We should not delay in responding to God's call.

Christ as Our Passover
The Passover lamb is a type of Christ, whose sacrifice was complete and sufficient. Just as the Israelites were to consume the lamb entirely, we are to fully embrace Christ's sacrifice for our salvation.(10) Ye shall let nothing of it remain.--That there might be neither profanation nor superstitious use of what was left. (Comp. the requirement of the Church of England with respect to the Eucharistic elements.)

That which remaineth--i.e., the bones and such particles of flesh as necessarily adhered to them. These were to be at once totally consumed by fire. Thus only could they be, as it were, annihilated, and so secured from profanation.

Verse 10. - Ye shall let nothing of it remain till the morning. The whole of the flesh was to be consumed by the guests, and at one sitting, lest there should be any even accidental profanation of the food by man or animal, if part were put away.. The English Church, acting on the same principle of careful reverence, declines to allow any reservation of the Eucharistic elements, requiring the whole of the consecrated bread and wine to be consumed by the Priest and communicants in the Church immediately after the service. That which remaineth - i.e., the bones, and any small fragments of the flesh necessarily adhering to them. Ye shall burn with fire. Thus only could its complete disappearance, and seeming annihilation be secured. It does not appear that this burning was viewed as a sacrificial act.
