MAY 17, 2021 Exodus 12:43 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the ordinance of the Passover: No foreigner shall eat it.” As we mentioned yesterday, those who were permitted to come to the LORD’s table and partake of the Passover were family — no foreigners were allowed to casually sit in on this meal. The […]

MAY 15, 2021 Exodus 12:42 It is a night of solemn observance to the Lord for bringing them out of the land of Egypt.

MAY 12, 2021 Exodus 12:25-27 It will come to pass when you come to the land which the Lord will give you, just as He promised, that you shall keep this service.

MAY 11, 2021 Exodus 12:24 :And you shall observe this thing as an ordinance for you and your sons forever.” Within these verses there are two significant Hebrew words that merit a discussion.

MAY 10, 2021 Exodus 12:22-23 “None of you shall go out of the door of his house until morning.

MAY 8, 2021 Exodus 12:19 For seven days no leaven shall be found in your houses, since whoever eats what is leavened, that same person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a stranger or a native of the land.
