Exodus 13:6 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Exodus 13:6

4 ^aOn this day you are going out, in the month Abib.

5 And it shall be, when the Lord ^abrings you into the ^bland of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, which He ^cswore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, ^dthat you shall keep this service in this month.

6 ^aSeven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to the Lord.

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.

Exodus 13:5-7

when the Lord shall bring thee—The passover is here instituted as a permanent festival of the Israelites. It was, however, only a prospective observance; we read of only one celebration of the passover during the protracted sojourn in the wilderness [Numbers 9:5]; but on their settlement in the promised land, the season was hallowed as a sacred anniversary [Joshua 5:10], in conformity with the directions here given.
