Deuteronomy 16
16:1
Observe the month of
a Abib, and keep
the passover unto the LORD thy God: for in the month of Abib the LORD thy God
brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
(
a) Read (
Exodus
13:4).
16:2 Thou shalt therefore
b
sacrifice the passover unto the LORD thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the
place which the LORD shall choose to place his name there.
(
b) You shall eat the Easter lamb.
16:3 Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven
days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, [even] the bread of
c
affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou
mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the
days of thy life.
(
c) Which signified the affliction which you had
in Egypt.
16:5 Thou mayest
d
not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which the LORD thy God
giveth thee:
(
d) This was chiefly accomplished, when the
temple was built.
16:6 But at the place which the LORD thy God shall
choose to place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the
e
passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest
forth out of Egypt.
(
e) Which was instituted to remind them of their
deliverance our of Egypt and to encourage them in the hope of Jesus Christ, of
whom this lamb was a figure.
16:9 Seven
weeks shalt thou
f number unto thee:
begin to number the seven weeks from [such time as] thou beginnest [to put] the
sickle to the corn.
(
f) Beginning the next morning after the
Passover, (
Leviticus
23:15;
Exodus
13:4).
16:13
Thou shalt
g observe the feast of
tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine:
(
g) That is, the 15th day of the seventh month, (
Leviticus
23:34).
16:17
Every man [shall give] as he is
h able,
according to the blessing of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee.
(
h) According to the ability that God has given
him.
16:18 i
Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, which the LORD thy
God giveth thee, throughout thy tribes: and they shall judge the people with
just judgment.
(
i) He gave temporary authority to the people to
choose magistrates for themselves.
16:20 That which
k
is altogether just shalt thou follow, that thou mayest live, and inherit the
land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
(
k) The magistrate must constantly follow the
tenor of the law, and in noting decline from justice.
