Exodus 12:10
And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire. (Exodus 12:10)
Let nothing of it remain.
 All the flesh was to be consumed at one meal lest putrefaction set in. Since Christ’s body was not to see corruption (Acts 2:27, 31; 13:35-37), the symbolic lamb should not either. If the paschal lamb should prove too much for the number of participants, the remainder was to be destroyed, in order to prevent profanation of the sacred symbols of the body of our Lord Jesus Christ.
