Contextual Overview

¹ The Lord said to Moses, ² "Set apart to Me every first-born male. The first-born male among the people of Israel, and the first-born male animal are Mine." ³ Then Moses said to the people, "Remember this day in which you went out of Egypt, out of the land where you were made to stay and work. For the Lord brought you out of this place by a powerful hand. No bread made with yeast will be eaten. ⁴ This day you are about to go out, in the month of Abib. ⁵ And the Lord will bring you to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, which He promised to your fathers to give you. It is a land flowing with milk and honey. There you will do this act of worship in this month. ⁶ For seven days you will eat bread without yeast. On the seventh day there will be a special supper to the Lord. ⁷ Bread without yeast will be eaten for seven days. Nothing made with yeast will be seen among you. No yeast will be seen among you in all your country. ⁸ You will say to your son on that day, ‘It is because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.' ⁹ It will be a special mark on your hand and on your forehead to make people remember, that the Law of the Lord is to be in your mouth. For the Lord brought you out of Egypt with a powerful hand. ¹⁰ So you must keep this Law at the time given for it from year to year.

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