"“You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out of Egypt."

Key Reflection

Exodus 34:19 commands the Israelites to observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, a significant annual event recalling their exodus from Egypt. This feast involves eating unleavened bread for seven days, beginning in the month of Abib (later known as Nisan), which marks the time they left Egypt. The command underscores both historical memory and ongoing obedience to God’s instructions, weaving together past deliverance with present commitment to the covenant.
