The Passover Fulfilled
Commentators explain that Jesus is declaring the end of the Passover ritual. Its purpose as a symbol, or 'type,' was fulfilled in Him. Christ is the true Passover Lamb whose sacrifice provides ultimate deliverance from sin. As scholar John Gill notes, Christ is the 'sum and substance' of the Passover, rendering the old ceremony obsolete because the reality it pointed to had arrived.
