(E)Be sure they are without blemish. 20 Their grain offering shall be of fine flour mixed with oil: three-tenths of an ephah you shall offer for a bull, and two-tenths for a ram; 21 you shall offer one-tenth of an ephah for each of the seven lambs; 22 also (F)one goat as a sin offering, to make [c]atonement for you. 23 You shall offer these besides the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a regular burnt offering. 24 In this manner you shall offer the food of the offering made by fire daily for seven days, as a sweet aroma to the Lord; it shall be offered besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering. 25 And (G)on the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work.

The Passover Reviewed(A)
16 “Observe the (B)month of Abib, and keep the Passover to the Lord your God, for (C)in the month of Abib the Lord your God brought you out of Egypt by night. 2 Therefore you shall sacrifice the Passover to the Lord your God, from the flock and (D)the herd, in the (E)place where the Lord chooses to put His name. 3 You shall eat no leavened bread with it; (F)seven days you shall eat unleavened bread with it, that is, the bread of affliction (for you came out of the land of Egypt in haste), that you may (G)remember the day in which you came out of the land of Egypt all the days of your life. 4 (H)And no leaven shall be seen among you in all your territory for seven days, nor shall any of the meat which you sacrifice the first day at twilight remain overnight until (I)morning.
5 “You may not sacrifice the Passover within any of your gates which the Lord your God gives you; 6 but at the place where the Lord your God chooses to make His name abide, there you shall sacrifice the Passover (J)at twilight, at the going down of the sun, at the time you came out of Egypt. 7 And you shall roast and eat it (K)in the place which the Lord your God chooses, and in the morning you shall turn and go to your tents. 8 Six days you shall eat unleavened bread, and (L)on the seventh day there shall be a [a]sacred assembly to the Lord your God. You shall do no work on it.

Passover Regulations(A)
43 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is (B)the ordinance of the Passover: No foreigner shall eat it. 44 But every man’s servant who is bought for money, when you have (C)circumcised him, then he may eat it. 45 (D)A sojourner and a hired servant shall not eat it. 46 In one house it shall be eaten; you shall not carry any of the flesh outside the house, (E)nor shall you break one of its bones. 47 (F)All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. 48 And (G)when a stranger [a]dwells with you and wants to keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as a native of the land. For no uncircumcised person shall eat it. 49 (H)One law shall be for the native-born and for the stranger who dwells among you.”

Exodus 12:14-28
New King James Version
14 ‘So this day shall be to you (A)a memorial; and you shall keep it as a (B)feast to the Lord throughout your generations. You shall keep it as a feast (C)by an everlasting ordinance. 15 (D)Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the first day you shall remove leaven from your houses. For whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, (E)that [a]person shall be [b]cut off from Israel. 16 On the first day there shall be (F)a holy convocation, and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation for you. No manner of work shall be done on them; but that which everyone must eat—that only may be prepared by you. 17 So you shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for (G)on this same day I will have brought your [c]armies (H)out of the land of Egypt. Therefore you shall observe this day throughout your generations as an everlasting ordinance. 18 (I)In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty-first day of the month at evening. 19 For (J)seven days no leaven shall be found in your houses, since whoever eats what is leavened, that same person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a stranger or a native of the land. 20 You shall eat nothing leavened; in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread.’ ”
21 Then (K)Moses called for all the (L)elders of Israel and said to them, (M)“Pick out and take lambs for yourselves according to your families, and kill the Passover lamb. 22 (N)And you shall take a bunch of hyssop, dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and (O)strike the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin. And none of you shall go out of the door of his house until morning. 23 (P)For the Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians; and when He sees the (Q)blood on the [d]lintel and on the two doorposts, the Lord will pass over the door and (R)not allow (S)the destroyer to come into your houses to strike you. 24 And you shall (T)observe this thing as an ordinance for you and your sons forever. 25 It will come to pass when you come to the land which the Lord will give you, (U)just as He promised, that you shall keep this service. 26 (V)And it shall be, when your children say to you, ‘What do you mean by this service?’ 27 that you shall say, (W)‘It is the Passover sacrifice of the Lord, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt when He struck the Egyptians and delivered our households.’ ” So the people (X)bowed their heads and worshiped. 28 Then the children of Israel went away and (Y)did so; just as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

Numbers 9:2-14
New King James Version
2 “Let the children of Israel keep (A)the Passover at its appointed (B)time. 3 On the fourteenth day of this month, [a]at twilight, you shall [b]keep it at its appointed time. According to all its [c]rites and ceremonies you shall keep it.” 4 So Moses told the children of Israel that they should keep the Passover. 5 And (C)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 (D)defiled by a human corpse, so that they could not keep the Passover on that day; (E)and they came before Moses and Aaron that day. 7 And those men said to him, “We became defiled by a human corpse. Why are we kept from presenting the offering of the Lord at its appointed time among the children of Israel?”
8 And Moses said to them, “Stand still, that (F)I may hear what the Lord will command concerning you.”
9 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 10 “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘If anyone of you or your [d]posterity is unclean because of a corpse, or is far away on a journey, he may still keep the Lord’s Passover. 11 On (G)the fourteenth day of the second month, at twilight, they may keep it. They shall (H)eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. 12 (I)They shall leave none of it until morning, (J)nor break one of its bones. (K)According to all the [e]ordinances of the Passover they shall keep it. 13 But the man who is clean and is not on a journey, and ceases to keep the Passover, that same person (L)shall be cut off from among his people, because he (M)did not bring the offering of the Lord at its appointed time; that man shall (N)bear his sin.
14 ‘And if a stranger [f]dwells among you, and would keep the Lord’s Passover, he must do so according to the rite of the Passover and according to its ceremony; (O)you shall have one [g]ordinance, both for the stranger and the native of the land.’ ”
