Contextual Overview

43The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "This is the ordinance of the Passover: no foreigner is to eat it; 44but every man's slave who is bought with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat it. 45"No stranger (temporary resident, foreigner) or hired servant shall eat it. 46"It is to be eaten inside one house; you shall not take any of the meat outside the house, nor shall you break any of its bones. 47"The entire congregation of Israel shall keep and celebrate it.48"If a stranger living temporarily among you wishes to celebrate the Passover to the LORD, all his males must be circumcised, and then he may participate and celebrate it like one that is born in the land. But no uncircumcised person may eat it. 49"The same law shall apply to the native-born and to the stranger who lives temporarily among you." 50Then all the Israelites did so; they did just as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron. 51And on that very same day the LORD brought the Israelites out of the land of Egypt by their hosts (tribal armies).

Gill's Notes on the Bible

All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. The passover, and the feast of unleavened bread only; for a Gentile was first to be circumcised, and be joined to the congregation, and then partake of it, and not before.
