“Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats: of: Heb. son of a year”
Exodus 12:5 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 12:5
The lamb must be 'tamiym' (תָּמִים)—without blemish, perfect, complete. This requirement establishes the principle of substitutionary perfection: the sacrifice must be flawless to bear the penalty for the flawed. Peter explicitly connects this to Christ: 'a lamb without blemish and without spot' (1 Peter 1:19). The 'male of the first year' indicates prime vitality.
