Contextual Overview

1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying, 2 `Sanctify to Me every first-born, opening any womb among the sons of Israel, among man and among beast; it [is] Mine.' 3 And Moses saith unto the people, `Remember this day [in] which ye have gone out from Egypt, from the house of servants, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought you out from this, and any thing fermented is not eaten; 4 To-day ye are going out, in the month of Abib. 5 `And it hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, and of the Hittite, and of the Amorite, and of the Hivite, and of the Jebusite, which He hath sworn to thy fathers to give to thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou hast done this service in this month. 6 `Seven days thou dost eat unleavened things, and in the seventh day [is] a feast to Jehovah; 7 unleavened things are eaten the seven days, and any thing fermented is not seen with thee; yea, leaven is not seen with thee in all thy border. 8 `And thou hast declared to thy son in that day, saying, `[It is] because of what Jehovah did to me, in my going out from Egypt, 9 and it hath been to thee for a sign on thy hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, so that the law of Jehovah is in thy mouth, for by a strong hand hath Jehovah brought thee out from Egypt; 10 and thou hast kept this statute at its appointed season from days to days.

saying; as follows.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XIII

God establishes the law concerning the first-born, and

commands that all such, both of man and beast, should be

sanctified unto him, 1, 2.

Orders them to remember the day in which they were brought

out of Egypt, when they should be brought to the land of

Canaan; and to keep this service in the month Abib, 3-5.

Repeats the command concerning the leavened bread, 6, 7,

and orders them to teach their children the cause of it, 8,

and to keep strictly in remembrance that it was by the might

of God alone they had been delivered from Egypt, 9.

Shows that the consecration of the first-born, both of man

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

Canaan, 10-12.

The first-born of man and beast to be redeemed, 13.

The reason of this also to be shown to their children, 14, 15.

Frontlets or phylacteries for the hands and forehead commanded,

16.

And the people are not led directly to the promised land, but

about through the wilderness; and the reason assigned, 17, 18.

Moses takes the bones of Joseph with him, 19.

They journey from Succoth and come to Etham, 20.

And the Lord goes before them by day in a pillar of cloud, and by

night in a pillar of fire, 21,

which miracle is regularly continued both by day and night, 22.
