Exodus THE PASSOVER: AN EXPIATION AND A FEAST, A MEMORIAL AND A PROPHECY Exo_12:1 - - Exo_12:14 . The Passover ritual, as appointed here, divides itself into two main parts-the sprinkling of the sacrificial blood on the door-posts and lintels, and the feast on the sacrifice. These can best be dealt with separately. They were separated in the later form of the ritual; for, when there was a central sanctuary, the lambs were slain there, and the blood sprinkled, as in other expiatory... read more

the Passover Lamb and its Sprinkled Blood Exodus 12:1-14 Henceforth, for Israel, there was to be a new beginning of the year. We should date our birthdays not from the cradle, but from the Cross. The Paschal Lamb was an evident foreshadowing of Christ. See 1 Corinthians 5:7 . (1). He was without blemish. Searched by friend and foe, no fault was found in Him. (2). He was in His prime, when He laid down His life. (3). Set apart at the opening of His ministry, it took three years to consummate... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Exodus 12:1-51

While the subjects necessarily intermingle at this point, we turn from the contemplation of the judgments of Jehovah in dealing with Pharaoh to that of deliverance in His dealings with Israel. As these people were now to pass into national constitution, the calendar was altered. A rite was established which was called an ordinance, a feast, a sacrifice. Thus at the very beginning the nation was reminded that it was rooted in the fact of deliverance wrought by God through sacrifice. The story... read more

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

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

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

This was afterwards restrained to the priests, but at this time it was allowed to the masters of families, as their present circumstances required. They shall strike it; with a bunch of hyssop, Exodus 12:22, as a badge of distinction between their houses and the Egyptians; not to direct the destroying angel where they were, who could as well discern the houses as the blood in the night, but to direct their thoughts to Christ, whose blood was hereby evidently typified, by whose merits and... read more

In that night, i.e. the night following the fourteenth, and beginning the fifteenth day. The lamb was killed upon the fourteenth day, in the evening or close thereof, but it was eaten upon the fifteenth day, to wit, in the beginning of it; whence the passover is said to be offered sometimes upon the fourteenth, and sometimes upon the fifteenth day, which may serve for the reconciliation of some seemingly contrary scriptures. Roast with fire; partly for expedition, Exodus 12:11; and principally... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Exodus 12:9

Eat not of it raw, i.e. not thoroughly roasted, for such we also say is raw and so the Hebrew word נא is understood by the Jewish and other doctors. It signified that Christ should suffer, as well as save, to the uttermost, all that was done for our sins. The purtenance; Heb. the inwards, which were to be taken and washed, and then to be roasted together with the rest. So do here except the fat, and caul, and kidneys which were reserved by God for himself, 2 Chronicles 35:12,2 Chronicles 35:4.... read more
