John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Numbers 9:2
Let the children of Israel also keep the
passover
Though this ordinance was enjoined the people of Israel, and
observed by them at the time of their coming out of Egypt, and
had been since repeated, ( Leviticus
23:5 ) ; yet without a fresh precept, or an explanation of
the former, they seemed not to be obliged, or might not be
sensible that they were obliged to keep it, until they came into
the land of Canaan, ( Exodus 12:25
) ; and therefore a new order is given them to observe it:
at his appointed season;
and what that season is is next declared.
