Wells of Living Water Commentary - Exodus 12:1-13

The Blood of the Cross in Exodus Exodus 12:1-13 INTRODUCTORY WORDS Today we will consider the Cross as it is set forth in the Book of Exodus. Of course, we cannot go into detail, but we will endeavor to make the study illuminating. When the rays of the sun have been focused through a prism they become very hot, so our effort will be to focus the rays of God's Word upon this one theme: the Blood. By way of introduction we will consider Moses as the type of Christ. 1. Moses was a child of... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 12:1-13

Exodus 12:1-1 Chronicles : P. Rules for the Passover (first set).— On the history of the Passover, see pp. 102f. Most ceremonial rules are dated from Sinai or the land of Moab: so these that follow are noted in Exodus 12:1 as given in Egypt. The first month ( Exodus 12:2) is in J, E, and D Abib, and later ( Nehemiah 2:1) Nisan. As the Quakers dropped the names of the days of the week on account of their pagan origin, so P avoids the Canaanitish or Phœ nician names, using numbers only, as in... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Exodus 12:6

Ye shall keep it up; separate it from the rest of the flock, and keep it in a safe place; the reasons of which, Exodus 12:3. The whole assembly; or rather, every assembly, to wit, every such society as meet together for eating of the lamb. And the assembly is said to kill it, because one person did it in their name, and by their appointment; in which manner, and upon which reason, the whole congregation is said to stone a man, Leviticus 24:14,Leviticus 24:16; Numbers 15:35; Deuteronomy 22:21.... read more

Joseph Exell

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Exodus 12:3-13

CRITICAL NOTES.—Exodus 12:3. The house of their fathers.] More exactly: “a father’s house.” The designation naturally imports “family” in the larger sense of “family of families,” the entire group formed by the union of grown-up sons and daughters with their children under the ancestral roof. Only in the event of this group being too small for a lamb, were mere neighbours to unite.—Exodus 12:6. Whole assembly of the congregation.] Here, at the very outset of Hebrew national history, is an... read more

Joseph Sutcliffe

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
