The Passover meal was intended to be for what?

• A. In remembrance of what God has done
• B. To celebrate the harvest
• C. To seal the covenant
• D. To obtain forgiveness

Answer: (A)

Passover is given as a memory of God’s saving act for His people. In Exodus, God tells Israel to observe this meal so that each generation will remember how He delivered them from slavery in Egypt—how He spared the firstborn and brought them out with a mighty hand. The focus is on recalling and retelling God’s faithfulness and mighty act of redemption.

That’s why the option about remembrance is the best fit. The others describe related ideas—harvest, sealing a covenant, or obtaining forgiveness—but they aren’t the primary purpose of Passover. It’s a memorial of God’s saving work, not a harvest festival, not primarily a covenant-sealing rite, and not a ritual meant to obtain forgiveness.
