Gill's Notes on the Bible
So kill the passover,.... In the manner, time, and place, and for the persons it should be killed:
and sanctify yourselves: by washing themselves and garments, that they might be fit for this service:
and prepare your brethren; prepare a lamb for your brethren, or instruct them how to perform their office that needed instruction:
that they may do according to the word of the Lord by the hand of Moses; celebrate the ordinance of the passover in all its rites, according to the law of Moses, at least in every rite in which they were more peculiarly concerned.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Prepare your brethren ... - i. e. “as you minister to your brethren the people, by killing and flaying their offerings and handing the blood to the priests, instruct them how they are to eat the Passover acceptably.” It is implied that many would be ignorant of the requirements of the Law.
