  While the Israelites were still in the land of Egypt, the lord

• 2:13
  or a goat with no defects. Take special care of this chosen
• 2:18
  animal until the evening of the 14th day of this first month.
• 2:23
  And the whole assembly of the community of Israel must
• 2:26
  slaughter their lamb or young goat at Twilight, they are to
• 2:30
  take Some of the blood and smeared on the sides.
• 2:33
  And top of the door frames of the houses, where they eat, the
• 2:36
  animal that same night, they must roast the meat over a fire
• 2:42
  and eat it too long with bitter salad, greens, and bread.

• 2:50
  water. The whole animal, including the
• 2:53
  head legs and internal, organs must be roasted over a fire, do
• 2:58
  not leave any of it until the next morning.
• 3:00
  Morning, burn. Whatever is not eaten before
• 3:03
  morning. These are your instructions
• 3:06
  before eating this meal. Be fully dressed.
• 3:10
  Wear your sandals and Carry Your walking.
• 3:12
  Stick in your hand, eat the meal with urgency for, this is the
• 3:16
  Lord's Passover on that night, I will pass through the land of
• 3:22
  Egypt and strike down every firstborn son and firstborn male
• 3:27
  animal in the land of Egypt. I will execute judgment against
• 3:31
  all the gods of Egypt. For I am the Lord.
• 3:35
  Dad. But the blood on your door,
• 3:37
  steps will serve as a sign marking the houses where you
• 3:41
  were staying. When I see the blood, I will
• 3:44
  pass over you. This plague of death will not
• 3:48
  touch you and I strike the land of Egypt.
• 3:52
  This is the day to remember each year from generation to
• 3:56
  generation. You must celebrate it as a
• 3:59
  special Festival to the Lord. This is the law for all time.
• 4:05
  For seven days, the bread you eat, must be made without yeast.
• 4:09
  On the first day of the festival, remove every trace of
• 4:13
  yeast from your home's. Everyone who eats bread made
• 4:17
  with yeast. During the seven days of the
• 4:19
  festival will be cut off from the community.
• 4:21
  Of Israel on the first day of the festival.
• 4:24
  And again, on the 7th day, all the people must observe an
• 4:28
  official day for Holy assembly. No, work of any kind may be done
• 4:33
  on these days except in the preparation of food.
• 4:37
  Celebrate this Festival of unleavened bread for it will
• 4:42
  remind you that I brought your forces out of the land of Egypt
• 4:46
  on this very day. The festival will be a permanent
• 4:50
  law for you, celebrate this day, from generation, to generation
• 4:54
  the bread. You eat must be without yeast
• 4:58
  from the evening of the 14th day of the first month until the
• 5:02
  evening of the 21st, day of that month.
• 5:04
  During those seven days, there must be No, trace of yeast in
• 5:09
  your homes. Anyone who eats anything made
• 5:12
  with yeast during this week will be cut off from the community of
• 5:15
  Israel. These regulations apply both to
• 5:19
  the foreigners living among you and to the native-born.
• 5:22
  Israelites, during those days, you must not eat anything made
• 5:27
  with yeast wherever you live eat, only bread made without
• 5:31
  yeast. Then Moses called all the Elders
• 5:35
  of Israel together and said to them.
• 5:38
  Go pick out a lamb or young goat for each of your families and
• 5:42
  Slaughter the Passover animal drain, the blood into a basin
• 5:47
  and take a bundle of hyssop, branches and dip it into the
• 5:50
  blood brush. The hyssop across the top and
• 5:53
  sides of the door frames of your houses and no one may go out
• 5:57
  through the door until morning for the Lord, will pass through
• 6:01
  the land to strike down. The Egyptians.
• 6:04
  But when he sees the blood on the top and sides of the door
• 6:07
  frame, the Lord will pass over your home.
• 6:10
  He will not permit his death, angel to enter your house and
• 6:14
  strike you down. Remember these instructions are
• 6:18
  a permanent law that you and your descendants must observe
• 6:22
  forever. When you enter the land, the
• 6:25
  Lord has promised to give you you will continue to observe the
• 6:28
  ceremony then your children will ask, what?
• 6:32
  A ceremony mean and you will reply, it is the Passover
• 6:37
  sacrifice to the Lord. For he passed over the houses of
• 6:41
  the Israelites in Egypt and though he struck the Egyptians,
• 6:46
  he spared our families. When Moses had finished
• 6:50
  speaking. All the people bowed down to the
• 6:53
  ground and worshiped, So the people of Israel did just as the
• 6:58
  Lord had commanded through Moses and Aaron and that night at
• 7:01
  midnight, the Lord struck down. All the firstborn sons in the
• 7:06
  land of Egypt from the firstborn, son of pharaoh, who
• 7:10
  sat on his throne to the firstborn son of the prisoner in
• 7:14
  the dungeon. Even the first born of their
• 7:17
  livestock were killed pharaoh and all his officials and all
• 7:22
  the people of Egypt woke up during the night, Night and
• 7:26
  Loud, wailing Was Heard throughout the land of Egypt,
• 7:30
  there was not a single house for someone had not died.
• 7:36
  Pharaoh sent from Moses and Aaron during the night, get out.
• 7:41
  He ordered leave my people and take the rest of the Israelites
• 7:46
  with you go and Worship the Lord.
• 7:49
  As you have requested, take your flocks and herds as you said,
• 7:54
  and be gone. Go but bless me as you leave.
• 7:59
  All the Egyptians urge the people of Israel to get out of
• 8:03
  the land as quickly as possible. For they thought we will all
• 8:07
  die. The Israelites took their bread
• 8:11
  dough before the yeast was added.
• 8:13
  They wrap their needing boards in their cloaks and carry them
• 8:17
  on their shoulders. And the people of Israel did, as
• 8:21
  Moses had instructed, they ask the Egyptians for clothing, and
• 8:25
  articles of silver and gold, the Lord caused the Egyptians
• 8:29
  toolbox. Look favorably on the Israelites
• 8:31
  and they gave the Israelites whatever they asked for.
• 8:34
  So they stripped the Egyptians of their wealth that night, the
• 8:38
  people of Israel left rameses and started for succoth, there
• 8:43
  were about six hundred thousand men plus all the women and
• 8:47
  children, a rabble of non-israelites went with them
• 8:51
  along with great flocks and herds of livestock for bread,
• 8:56
  they bake flat cakes from the do without you.
• 8:59
  They had brought from Egypt, it was made without yeast because
• 9:02
  the people were driven out of Egypt in such a hurry, that they
• 9:06
  had no time to prepare the bread or other food.
• 9:09
  The people of Israel had lived in Egypt for 430 years.
• 9:15
  In fact, it was on the last day of the four hundred and
• 9:19
  thirtieth year that all the Lord's Force has left the land
• 9:23
  on this night. The Lord kept his promise to
• 9:26
  bring his people out of the land of Egypt.
• 9:29
  So This Night Belongs to him and it must be commemorated every
• 9:34
  year by all the Israelites from generation to generation.
• 9:40
  Then the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, these are the
• 9:43
  instructions for the Festival of Passover.
• 9:47
  No Outsiders are allowed to eat the Passover meal, but any
• 9:51
  slave, who has been purchased may eat it.
• 9:53
  If he has been circumcised, temporary residents and hide
• 9:58
  servants, may not eat it. Each Passover Lamb must be eaten
• 10:03
  in one house. Do not carry any of its meat
• 10:06
  outside and do not break any of its bones.
• 10:10
  The whole community of Israel must celebrate this Passover
• 10:13
  Festival. If there are foreigners living
• 10:16
  amongst you who want to celebrate the Lord's Passover?
• 10:19
  Let all their mails be circumcised only then may they
• 10:23
  celebrate the Passover with you. Like any native-born Israelite,
• 10:28
  but, no, uncircumcised male May ever eat the Passover meal.
• 10:32
  This instruction applies to everyone, whether a native-born
• 10:36
  Israelite or a foreigner living among you, So all the people of
• 10:41
  Israel, followed all the Lord's commands to Moses and Aaron on
• 10:45
  that very day, the Lord brought the people of Israel, out of the
• 10:51
  land of Egypt like an army. Jesus our Passover Lamb.
• 11:10
  This perfect sacrifice without blemish without broken bone,
• 11:15
  whose blood was spilled to protect us.
• 11:19
  We just praise you. That all those thousands and
• 11:25
  thousands of years ago. This was the plan for seeing and
• 11:30
  acted on in the people of Israel, but a mere shadow of
• 11:37
  what you would provide and how you would save us.
• 11:40
  We just lift you up and praise you, and thank you for your
• 11:46
  sacrifice for us. You are glorious and wonderful.
• 11:54
  And humble and filled with love for us.
• 11:57
  And we don't understand it, but she would grateful for it
• 12:00
  anyway. Thank you, Jesus.
• 12:02
  We pray all of this in your name.
• 12:05
  Amen.
