Contextual Overview
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses in the desert of Sinai, in the second year by their coming forth out of the land of Egypt in the first month, saying: 2 Let the sons of Israel therefore, keep the passover in its appointed season: 3 on he fourteenth day of this month between the two evenings, shall ye keep it, in its appointed season, - according to all the statute thereof and according to all the regulations thereof, shall ye keep it. 4 Then spake Moses unto the sons of Israel that they should keep the passover. 5 So they kept the passover in the first month , on the fourteenth day of the month between the two evenings, in the desert of Sinai, - according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the sons of Israel. 6 But so it was that there were, certain men who had become unclean by a dead person, and could not keep the passover on that day, - therefore came they near before Moses and before Aaron on that day. 7 Then said those men unto him, We, are unclean by a dead person, - wherefore should we become of less esteem for want of offering the oblation of Yahweh in its appointed season, in the midst of the sons of Israel? 8 And Moses said unto them, - Stay, and let me hear, what Yahweh shall command concerning you! 9 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying: 10 Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, - Though, any man, be unclean by a dead person or be on a journey afar off, whether in the case of yourselves or of your generations, yet shall he keep a passover unto Yahweh.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Passover at Sinai. This, as being kept in the first month, was prior in time to the numbering of Numbers 1:1 ff, and to the other events narrated in this book. It is, however, recorded here as introductory to the ordinance of Numbers 9:6-14 in this chapter respecting the supplementary Passover; the observance of which was one of the last occurrences during the halt at Sinai.
Numbers 9:5
In some details, the present Passover differed both from that kept at the Exodus itself and from all subsequent Passovers. For example, the direction of Exodus 12:22 could not be carried out in the letter while the people were dwelling in tents; and may be regarded as superseded by Leviticus 17:3-6 (compare Deuteronomy 16:5 ff).
In other points, such as how many lambs would be wanted, how the blood of the Paschal victims could be sprinkled upon the altar in the time specified, etc., the administrators of the Law of Moses would here, as elsewhere, have, from the nature of the case, power to order what might be requisite to carry the law into effect.
