Exodus 13:10 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 13:10

Thou shall therefore keep the ordinance in his season

It is in the Hebrew text, "from days to days" ^F3; that is, either year after year, as we understand it; or else the sense is, that the feast of unleavened bread, when the season was come for keeping it, was to be observed every day for seven days running.
