1 Corinthians 5:8 - Unleavened bread

Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old bread leavened with malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

In preparation for a project I am involved in, I looked up verses about leaven and yeast. For the Israelites during the Passover they ate only unleavened bread. It is the bread of the affliction because they left Egypt in haste during the exodus. The leaven also represents sin, which infiltrates a population like yeast infiltrates the dough.

Lord, thank you for symbols with represent truths. Please help us to remove sin from out lives on a daily basis. Amen.
