It's irrelevant whether something was given earlier, as Sinai supersedes all previous laws. | |

They explained to me that the korban Pesah is the only sacrifice not associated with the Temple/Tabernacle, as it was commanded in Egypt before the Exodus. Therefore, the obligation to bring the offering never ceased despite the destruction of the Temple. | |
