Study Notes

Instructions for Moses and Aaron in Egypt

God instructed Moses and Aaron to deliver a message to the Israelites about a specific sacrifice to be made.
The Israelites were to choose a lamb, without blemish, from among the flock for the sacrifice.

Timing for the Slaughter of Lambs

The lambs were to be slaughtered on the evening of the 14th day of the month of Nisan.
This event is significant as it marks the beginning of Passover.

Purpose of Blood on Doorframe

Blood from the sacrificed lamb was to be put on the doorframes of every household to signify protection.
This act would ensure that the Lord would "pass over" those houses during the plague that struck down the firstborn in Egypt.

They were required to eat the meal in haste, dressed and ready for departure.

Consuming yeast was forbidden, symbolizing purity and a break from the past.

Sacred Assemblies and Significance of the Festival

The blood on the doorframes commemorated the sparing of Israelite households during the final plague in Egypt, where the firstborn sons of the Egyptians were struck down.
