Psalm 78:23-29

23 Yet he commanded the skies above
    and (A)opened the doors of heaven,
24 and he (B)rained down on them manna to eat
    and gave them (C)the grain of heaven.
25 Man ate of the bread of (D)the angels;
    he sent them food (E)in abundance.
26 He (F)caused the east wind to blow in the heavens,
    and by his power he led out the south wind;
27 he rained meat on them like (G)dust,
    winged birds like (H)the sand of the seas;
28 he (I)let them fall in the midst of their camp,
    all around their dwellings.
29 And they (J)ate and were well filled,
    for he gave them what they (K)craved.

Exodus 12:43-13:2

Institution of the Passover

43 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: no foreigner shall eat of it, 44 but every slave[a] that is (A)bought for money may eat of it after you have circumcised him. 45 (B)No foreigner or hired worker may eat of it. 46 It shall be eaten in one house; you shall not take any of the flesh outside the house, and (C)you shall not break any of its bones. 47 (D)All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. 48 (E)If a stranger shall sojourn with you and would keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised. Then he may come near and keep it; he (F)shall be as a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person shall eat of it. 49 There shall be (G)one law for the native and for the (H)stranger who sojourns among you.”

50 All the people of Israel did just as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron. 51 And on that very day the (I)Lord brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their (J)hosts.

Consecration of the Firstborn

13 The Lord said to Moses, (K)“Consecrate to me all the firstborn. Whatever is the first to open the womb among the people of Israel, both of man and of beast, is mine.”

1 Corinthians 11:27-34

27 (A)Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord (B)in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning (C)the body and blood of the Lord. 28 (D)Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. 30 That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some (E)have died.[a] 31 (F)But if we judged[b] ourselves truly, we would not be judged. 32 But when we are judged by the Lord, (G)we are disciplined[c] so that we may not be (H)condemned along with the world.

33 So then, my brothers,[d] when you come together to eat, wait for[e] one another— 34 (I)if anyone is hungry, (J)let him eat at home—so that when you come together it will not be for judgment. About the other things (K)I will give directions (L)when I come.
