L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 12:1-51

THE PASSOVER FEAST (vs.1-28) The time finally arrives for the Lord to accomplish a work of amazing power in Egypt in the deliverance of a nation numbering over two million, from the bondage of Egypt. Speaking to Moses and Aaron, the Lord tells them that this month was to be to Israel the beginning of months, the first month of their year. A new beginning was to take place at this time, a beginning based on the value of the blood of the lamb of sacrifice (v.2). Clearly this is typical of the... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Exodus 12:37-51

THE PILLAR OF CLOUD THE FIRST STAGE OF THE JOURNEY (Exodus 12:37-51 ) How did the Hebrews get from Goshen to Rameses? Perhaps Rameses was in the land of Goshen or it was a name used here in the sense of the general locality rather than the specific city which the Hebrews helped to build (1:11). Compare Genesis 47:11 . We cannot identify “Succoth,” but since the word means tents or places for tents some think it specifies a camping spot en route. Note the number of the men, which,... read more

The Preservation of the Israelites Exo 12:1-20 During the plague of hail, when the hail smote throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and beast, when the fire ran along upon the ground and the hail was so grievous that there had been none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation, "Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, was there no hail" "The Lord doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel." After the plague of... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 12:43-51

43-51 In times to come, all the congregation of Israel must keep the passover. All that share in God's mercies should join in thankful praises for them. The New Testament passover, the Lord's supper, ought not to be neglected by any. Strangers, if circumcised, might eat of the passover. Here is an early indication of favour to the gentiles. This taught the Jews that their being a nation favoured by God, entitled them to their privileges, not their descent from Abraham. Christ our passover is... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Exodus 12:40-51

Further Precepts Concerning the Passover v. 40. Now the sojourning of the children of Israel who dwelt in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years, four long or ten short generations as they were then reckoned. v. 41. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the Lord, the great armies that were to wage His wars, went out from the land of Egypt. The departure of them all took place on the same day, on the... read more

D.—The exodus from Egypt. Legal enactments consequent on liberationExodus 12:37 to Exodus 13:1637And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot, that were men [the men] beside [besides] children. 38And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle. 39And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Exodus 12:37-51

Israel Led out of Egypt Exodus 12:37-51 The 600,000 were males above 20 years of age, Numbers 1:3-43 . This would make the entire body not less than 2,000,000 of people of all ages. Succoth was the first rallying point on which the various bands converged. It stood in open country, over which their flocks and herds spread themselves. It was, indeed, a night to be observed, when the Exodus took place, because, as Bunsen says, it was the beginning of history; and we may almost say further that... 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
