41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years—on that very same day—it came to pass that ^aall the armies of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt.

42 It is ^a¹a night of solemn observance to the Lord for bringing them out of the land of Egypt. This is that night of the Lord, a solemn observance for all the children of Israel throughout their generations.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Exodus 12:41

Exodus 12:43 >>

This first passover night was a night of the Lord, much to be observed; but the last passover night, in which Christ was betrayed, was a night of the Lord, much more to be observed, when a yoke heavier than that of Egypt was broke from off our necks, and a land better than that of Canaan set before us. That was a temporal deliverance, to be celebrated in their generations; this an eternal redemption to be celebrated world without end.
