Contextual Overview

16 And in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, is the passover to the Lord. 17 And on the fifteenth day of this month is a feast; seven days ye shall eat unleavened bread. 18 And the first day shall be to you a holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work. 19 And ye shall bring whole-burnt-offerings, a sacrifice to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, seven lambs of a year old; they shall be to you without blemish. 20 And their meat-offering shall be fine flour mingled with oil; three tenth deals for one calf, and two tenth deals for one ram. 21 Thou shalt offer a tenth for each lamb, for the seven lambs. 22 And thou shalt offer one kid of the goats for a sin-offering, to make atonement for you. 23 Beside the perpetual whole-burnt-offering in the morning, which is a whole-burnt-sacrifice for a continuance, 24 these shall ye thus offer daily for seven days, a gift, a sacrifice for a sweet-smelling savour to the Lord; beside the continual whole-burnt-offering, thou shalt offer its drink-offering. 25 And the seventh day shall be to you a holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work in it.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast,.... Not of the passover, that was the day before, but of unleavened bread, which began on this day, and lasted seven days, Leviticus 23:6 which is what the Jews call the Chagigah:

seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten; see Exodus 12:15.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The Passover offering was the same as that of the New moon, and was repeated on each of the seven days of the festival, thus marking the importance and the solemnity of the occasion. The details of the offering had not been previously prescribed.
