Exodus 13:6 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 13:6

Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread
The Jews

---

FOOTNOTES:

F25 gather from this place, and from ( Deuteronomy 16:8 ) , that the obligation to eat unleavened bread lasted no longer than the first night of the seven days, but on the rest it was enough if they abstained from leavened bread, and it was lawful for them to eat of other food as they pleased, (See Gill on Exodus 12:15), but the words are very express in both places, and so in the following verse, for eating unleavened bread, as well as abstaining from leavened; and, indeed, otherwise it would not be so clear and plain a commemoration of their case and circumstances, in which they were when they came out of Egypt; this bread of affliction, as it is called, ( Deuteronomy 16:3 ) being what would put them in mind thereof: and in the seventh day shall be a feast to the Lord;
an holy convocation, in which no work was to be done, except what was necessary for preparing food to eat, see ( Exodus 12:16 ) .

Exodus 13:6 In-Context

4 Heute seid ihr ausgegangen, in dem Monat Abib.

5 Wenn dich nun der HERR bringen wird in das Land der Kanaaniter, Hethiter, Amoriter, Heviter und Jebusiter, daß er deinen Vätern geschworen hat dir zu geben, ein Land, darin Milch und Honig fließt, so sollst du diesen Dienst halten in diesem Monat.

6 Sieben Tage sollst du ungesäuertes Brot essen, und am siebenten Tage ist des HERRN Fest.

7 Darum sollst du sieben Tage ungesäuertes Brot essen, daß bei dir kein Sauerteig noch gesäuertes Brot gesehen werde an allen deinen Orten. {~}

8 Ihr sollt euren Söhnen sagen an demselben Tage: Solches halten wir um deswillen, was uns der HERR getan hat, da wir aus Ägypten zogen. {~}
