Éxodo 12:8-28 RVA

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Exodus 12:1-20

Moses and Aaron here receive of the Lord what they were afterwards to deliver to the people concerning the ordinance of the passover, to which is prefixed an order for a new style to be observed in their months (Exod. 12:1, 2): This shall be to you the beginning of months. They had hitherto begun their year from the middle of September, but henceforward they were to begin it from the middle of March, at least in all their ecclesiastical computations. Note, It is good to begin the day, and... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Exodus 12:21-28

I. Moses is here, as a faithful steward in God's house, teaching the children of Israel to observe all things which God had commanded him; and no doubt he gave the instructions as largely as he received them, though they are not so largely recorded. It is here added, 1. That this night, when the first-born were to be destroyed, no Israelite must stir out of doors till morning, that is, till towards morning, when they would be called to march out of Egypt, Exod. 12:22. Not but that the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:8

And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire ,.... The night of the fourteenth of Nisan; and as the Jews reckoned their days from the evening preceding, this must be the beginning of the fifteenth day, which being observed, will serve to reconcile some passages relating to this ordinance. The lamb was to be roasted, not only because its flesh thereby would be more palatable and savoury, but because soonest dressed that way, their present circumstances requiring haste; but... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:9

Eat not of it raw ,.... Not roasted enough; and so Jarchi says, that what is not sufficiently roasted, or is not thoroughly and down roasted, is in the Arabic language called נא F21 "cruda fuit caro", Golius, col. 2476. Semicocta, "cruda fuit caro", Castell. Lex. col. 2296. Vid. Hottinger. Smegma Oriental. p. 169, 170. , the word here used; and so Maimonides F23 Hilchot Korban Pesach. c. 8. sect. 6. says it signifies flesh, on which the fire begins to operate, and is roasted a... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:10

And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning ,.... It was to be all ate up; a whole Christ is to be received and fed upon by faith; Christ in both his natures, divine and human, united in his person, in all his offices of prophet, priest, and King, and with all the benefits and blessings of his grace, and which come by his blood, righteousness, and sacrifice: and that which remaineth of it until the morning, ye shall burn with fire : what of the flesh which remaineth not ate,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:11

And thus shall ye eat it ,.... After the following manner, in the habit and posture described: the Targum of Jonathan adds,"at this time, and not in ages following;'for these rites were peculiar to the passover in Egypt, and not to be observed in later times: with your loins girded ; that is, with their garments girt about their loins, for the better convenience in travelling; for in those countries they wore long loose garments, which reached to their feet, and unless girt up, were a... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:12

For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night ,..... Which must be understood consistent with his omnipresence, and of the manifestation of his powerful presence, or of the exertion of his mighty power in the following event: and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast ; as had been declared to Pharaoh, Exodus 11:5 . and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment ; meaning either figuratively, the nobles, princes, judges and civil... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:13

And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where you are ,.... The blood of the passover lamb being sprinkled on the two sideposts and upper doorposts of the houses inhabited by the Israelites, or where they were eating the passover; this should be a sign or token to them of the Lord's making good his promises, to them, and so of their safety, and to the destroying angel not to enter therein, but pass by and save them: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you ; for... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:14

And this shall be unto you for a memorial ,.... To be remembered, and that very deservedly, for the destruction of the firstborn of the Egyptians, and for the deliverance of the children of Israel out of Egypt, and as memorable a day it is, and much more so, for the redemption of the spiritual Israel by the Messiah; for it was on this selfsame day that he suffered for the redemption and salvation of his people: the Jews not only having a saying,"that in the month Nisan they were redeemed,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:15

Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread ,.... From the evening of the fourteenth day to the evening of the twenty first; and this was a distinct festival from what was properly called the feast of the passover, and does not respect the first passover in Egypt; for though the passover lamb was eaten with unleavened bread, and the Israelites ate no other, not only for seven days, but for thirty days following; yet this was not only by the divine command, but through necessity, they having no... read more
