Exodus 13:9
Compare all
7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days. And ano leavened bread shall be seen among you, nor shall leaven be seen among you in all your quarters.  
8 And you shall atell your son in that day, saying, ‘This is done because of what the Lord did for me when I came up from Egypt.’  
9 It shall be as aa sign to you on your hand and as a memorial between your eyes, that the Lord’s law may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand the Lord has brought you out of Egypt.  
10 aYou shall therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.  

The Law of the Firstborn

11 “And it shall be, when the Lord abrings you into the land of the bCanaanites, as He swore to you and your fathers, and gives it to you,  
12 athat you shall set apart to the Lord all that open the womb, that is, every firstborn that comes from an animal which you have; the males shall be the Lord’s.

Exodus

EXODUS, a "going forth," derives its name from its being occupied principally with a relation of the departure of the Israelites from Egypt, and the incidents that immediately preceded as well as followed that memorable migration. Its authorship by Moses is distinctly asserted by himself (Exodus 24:4), as well as by our Lord (Mark 12:26; Luke 20:37). Besides, the thorough knowledge it exhibits of the institutions and usages of the ancient Egyptians and the minute geographical details of the journey to Sinai, establish in the clearest manner the authenticity of this book.
