Exodus 12:40-51 ▼

40 Now the time that the sons of Israel had lived in Egypt was 430 years.

41 And at the end of 430 years, on this very day, all the multitudes of the LORD departed from the land of Egypt.

42 It is a night to be observed for the LORD, for having brought them out of the land of Egypt; this night is for the LORD, to be observed by all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.

43 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the ordinance of the Passover: no foreigner is to eat it;

44 but as for every slave that someone has purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat it.

45 A stranger or a hired worker shall not eat it.

46 It is to be eaten in a single house; you are not to bring any of the meat outside of the house, nor are you to break any bone of it.

47 All the congregation of Israel are to celebrate this.

48 But if a stranger resides with you and celebrates the Passover to the LORD, all of his males are to be circumcised, and then he shall come near to celebrate it; and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised male may eat it.

49 The same law shall apply to the native as to the stranger who resides among you.”

50 Then all the sons of Israel did so; they did just as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.

51 And on that very day the LORD brought the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt according to their multitudes.
