Verse
Exodus - ch 12 v 41 - 51
- And at the end of four hundred and thirty years, to the very day, all the armies of the Lord went out of the land of Egypt.
- It is a watch-night before the Lord who took them out of the land of Egypt: this same night is a watch-night to the Lord for all the children of Israel, through all their generations.
- And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, This is the law of the Passover: no man who is not an Israelite is to take of it:
- But every man's servant, whom he has got for money, may take of it, when he has had circumcision.
- A man from a strange country living among you, and a servant working for payment, may not take part in it.
- It is to be taken in one house; not a bit of the flesh is to be taken out of the house, and no bone of it may be broken.
- All Israel is to keep the feast.
- And if a man from another country is living with you, and has a desire to keep the Passover to the Lord, let all the males of his family undergo circumcision, and then let him come near and keep it; for he will then be as one of your people; but no one without circumcision may keep it.
- The law is the same for him who is an Israelite by birth and for the man from a strange country who is living with you.
- So the children of Israel did as the Lord gave orders to Moses and Aaron.
- And on that very day the Lord took the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
