Contextual Overview

¹ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,² "Sanctify to Me every firstborn, the first offspring of every womb among the sons of Israel, both of man and beast; it belongs to Me." ³ Moses said to the people, "Remember this day in which you went out from Egypt, from the house of slavery; for by a powerful hand the LORD brought you out from this place. And nothing leavened shall be eaten. ⁴ "On this day in the month of Abib, you are about to go forth. ⁵ "It shall be when the LORD brings you to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall observe this rite in this month. ⁶ "For seven 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 throughout the seven days; and nothing leavened shall be seen among you, nor shall any leaven be seen among you in all your borders. ⁸ "You shall tell your son on that day, saying, 'It is because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.' ⁹ "And it shall serve as a sign to you on your hand, and as a reminder on your forehead, that the law of the LORD may be in your mouth; for with a powerful hand the LORD brought you out of Egypt. ¹⁰ "Therefore, you shall keep this ordinance at its appointed time from year to year.

and beast, should take place when they should be settled in
