Exodus 12:46 NASB

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 12:42-50

The Mixed Multitude, And Those Who Will, Can Enter God’s Covenant and Share the Passover (Exodus 12:42-50 ). The extra instructions that follow were partly necessary because of the mixed multitude that had joined up with them, and they are thus introduced at this point. But they are also important as indicating the make up of ‘the children of Israel’. They are seen as including genuine descendants of Jacob and his sons, descendants of all family servants in their households who had been... read more

Exodus 12:37 – Exodus 18. From Egypt to Sinai. Exodus 12:37-Ephesians : J. The Exodus.— From Rameses ( Exodus 1:11 b *) the first stage of the journey took the people 10 miles W. to Succoth (Eg. Thikke), the district round Pithom ( Exodus 1:11 b). The number 600,000 ( cf. Numbers 11:21), not including “ children” (rather “ little ones,” i.e. women and children, as Exodus 10:10, Exodus 12:24, and often in J), implies a total of about two millions, which not only involves a complex and... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 12:40-51

Exodus 12:40-Luke : Rp. Time spent in Egypt.— The Biblical writers are not in agreement about the length of Israel’ s stay in Egypt. Here it is given (probably by Rp) as 430 years ( cf. 400 years in Genesis 15:13 Rje, Acts 7:6, and Josephus). But in Exodus 6:14-Daniel : (also Rp, cf. Genesis 15:16 E) Moses and his contemporaries are the fourth generation. To reconcile the two estimates, the words “ and in the land of Canaan,” i.e. before the entry into Egypt, are interpolated in Exodus... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Exodus 12:46

Partly, because they were all obliged not to go out of the house till the morning, Exodus 12:22, and to leave none of it till that time, Exodus 12:10; partly, lest it should be either superstitiously or profanely abused; and partly, to signify that Christ and salvation are not to be had out of God’s house or church. To take out and eat the marrow of it. This was required, partly to mind them of their hasty departure out of Egypt, wherein they had no leisure to break and empty the bones; and... read more

That God not only institutes ordinances for men, but also shows in what way they are to be observed.

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:1-51

Chapter 12The Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you ( Exodus 12:1-2 ).Now in a few weeks the Jews are gonna be celebrating New Year's, Rosh Hashana. How come they're celebrating New Year's now, if this month April was to be the first month of the year? Well, they have a religious calendar. Their religious year begins in April. Then they have just the regular year by which... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 12:1-51

Exodus 12:2. The first month of the year. This is called Abib, Exodus 13:4; and Nisan, Esther 3:7. It was before the seventh month, hence the earth is supposed to have been created in September; but now in commemoration of their deliverance from Egypt, the ecclesiastical table which regulated the festivals, was ordered to begin with Abib. Many nations have reckoned their existence from some important era in their history: and in this view it was highly proper for the christian church to... read more
