And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover. ] The time now drawing nigh for the observation of it, it being now almost a year since their coming out of Egypt.
2
"Let the children of Israel keep the Passover at its appointed time.
3
On the fourteenth day of this month, at twilight, you shall keep it at its appointed time. According to all its rites and ceremonies you shall keep it."
4
So Moses told the children of Israel that they should keep the Passover.
5
And they kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month, at twilight, in the Wilderness of Sinai; according to all that the Lord commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did.
6
Now there were certain men who were defiled by a human corpse, so that they could not keep the Passover on that day; and they came before Moses and Aaron that day.
