Exodus 12:18-36

Sermon Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:30-41

Exodus 12:30-41 (with Matthew 2:15 ) I. We cannot treat the Exodus as an isolated fact in history. Egypt is the type of the cunning, careless, wanton world, out of which in all ages God is calling His sons. The Exodus remained a living fact in history. The infant Jesus went down into Egypt, as the infant Israel went down, not to repeat the Exodus, but to illume afresh its fading lines. (1) The children of Israel were an elect race, because they were of the seed of Abraham: that constituted... read more

DISCOURSE: 78DELIVERANCE OF THE ISRAELITES FROM THE DESTROYING ANGELExodus 12:21-23. Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out, and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover. And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side-posts with the blood that is in the bas on; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning. For the Lord will pass... read more

Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - Exodus 12:26

A Question for Communicants June 1st, 1890 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "What mean ye by this service?" Exodus 12:26 . In a spiritual religion, everything must be understood. That which is not spiritual, but ritualistic, contents itself with the outward form. Under the Jewish dispensation, there was a very strong tendency in that direction; but it was kept to some extent in check. Under the Christian faith, this tendency must not be tolerated at all. We must know the meaning of what we do;... read more

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

Exodus 12:15-19The feast of unleavened bread.The feast of unleavened bread; or, the ordinances of God, and the manner in which they should be observedThe feast of unleavened bread was a distinct ordinance from the Passover, though following immediately upon it. At this feast the Israelites were to eat unleavened bread; probably to commemorate the fact that they had left Egypt in such haste that they had no opportunity to leaven their dough, and were consequently obliged to eat unleavened cakes.... read more

Exodus 12:21-23Strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood.Three great truths taught by the PassoverI. The universality of condemnation. Israelite and Egyptian are brought under one common charge of guilt, and there they all stand, “condemned already.”II. The great truth of substitution. The lamb instead of the firstborn. “Behold the Lamb of God,” etc.III. The third truth taught is appropriation. The Israelite would not have been safe if he had merely killed the lamb; he had to... read more

Exodus 12:24-25Ye shall keep this service.Celebration of the PassoverI. In this incident we have a clear recognition of the principle of vicarious suffering. It is seen in the birth of the infant, in the history of the family circle, in the events of everyday life, but supremely in the Cross of Christ. In the Cross of Christ it is seen in its highest embodiment, in its truest meaning, and in its most glorious possibility. There is the innocent dying for the guilty, the God-man suffering for the... read more

God’s revelation of grace in providences and ordinances deserve praise from His people.3. Worship of God and obedience to Him are well coupled (Exodus 12:27).4. Dispatch in obedience is very requisite in God’s Israel.5. Sons of Israel are fit to give worship and obedience, and Jehovah only to receive it.6. Obedience and worship must... read more

Exodus 12:29-30A great cry in Egypt.The death of the firstborn of EgyptI. We see here that God’s vengeance is as certainly executed upon the rebellious as it is threatened. Men cannot elude the stroke of heaven.II. We see here that God’s vengeance is upon all sinners, no matter what their social position, whether king or beggar. He takes the rich from their wealth, the poor from their misery; and perhaps in the next life the relations of men may be inverted--the poor man may be the prince, and... read more
