Passover
Exodus 12:5-46
5 Your lamb shall be
without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from
the sheep, or from the goats: 6 And ye shall keep it up
until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the
congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening. 7
And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts
and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.
8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire,
and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.
9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but
roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance
thereof. 10 And ye shall let nothing of it remain until
the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn
with fire. 11 And thus shall ye eat it; with your
loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye
shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD�S passover. 12
For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the
firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods
of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD. 13
And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are:
and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be
upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. 14
And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast
to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an
ordinance for ever. 15 Seven days shall ye eat
unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your
houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the
seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel. 16
And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the
seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall
be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be
done of you. 17 And ye shall observe the feast of
unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of
the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by
an ordinance for ever. 18 In the first month, on
the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until
the one and twentieth day of the month at even. 19 Seven
days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that
which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of
Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land. 20
Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat
unleavened bread. 21 Then Moses called for all the
elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according
to your families, and kill the passover. 22 And ye shall
take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the
bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is
in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the
morning. 23 For the LORD will pass through to smite the
Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side
posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to
come in unto your houses to smite you. 24 And ye
shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever.
25 And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land
which the LORD will give you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall
keep this service. 26 And it shall come to pass, when
your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service? 27
That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the LORD�S passover, who
passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the
Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and
worshipped. 28 And the children of Israel went away, and
did as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they. 29
And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in
the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto
the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the
firstborn of cattle. 30 And Pharaoh rose up in the
night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great
cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one
dead. 31 And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and
said, Rise up, and get you forth from among my people, both ye and the
children of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as ye have said. 32
Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone; and
bless me also. 33 And the Egyptians were urgent upon the
people, that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We
be all dead men. 34 And the people took
their dough before it was leavened, their kneadingtroughs being bound up in
their clothes upon their shoulders. 35 And the children
of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the
Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: 36
And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that
they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the
Egyptians. 37 And the children of Israel journeyed from
Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were men,
beside children. 38 And a mixed multitude went up also
with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle. 39
And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of
Egypt, for it was not leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and
could not tarry, neither had they prepared for themselves any victual.
40 Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in
Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. 41 And
it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the
selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the
land of Egypt. 42 It is a night to be much
observed unto the LORD for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this
is that night of the LORD to be observed of all the children of Israel in
their generations. 43 And the LORD said unto Moses and
Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: There shall no stranger
eat thereof: 44 But every man�s servant that is bought
for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof.
45 A foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat thereof.
46 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry
forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a
bone thereof.
Psalms 34:20
20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is
broken.
John 6:31-35
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as
it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. 32
Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not
that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from
heaven, and giveth life unto the world. 34 Then said
they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. 35 And
Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never
hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
John 6:45-58
45 It is written in the prophets, And they
shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath
learned of the Father, cometh unto me. 46 Not that any
man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me
hath everlasting life. 48 I am that bread of life.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are
dead. 50 This is the bread which cometh down from
heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51 I am
the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he
shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will
give for the life of the world. 52 The Jews therefore
strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to
eat? 53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say
unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye
have no life in you. 54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and
drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink
indeed. 56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my
blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. 57 As the living
Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he
shall live by me. 58 This is that bread which came down
from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth
of this bread shall live for ever.
John 6:61-69
61 When Jesus knew in himself that his
disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
62 What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where
he was before? 63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the
flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are
spirit, and they are life. 64 But there are some
of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that
believed not, and who should betray him. 65 And he said,
Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given
unto him of my Father. 66 From that time many of
his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. 67
Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? 68
Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the
words of eternal life. 69 And we believe and are sure
that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
Matthew 26:1-31
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished
all these sayings, he said unto his disciples, 2 Ye know
that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is
betrayed to be crucified. 3 Then assembled together the
chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace
of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, 4 And
consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.
5 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an
uproar among the people. 6 Now when Jesus was in
Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, 7 There came
unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured
it on his head, as he sat at meat. 8 But when his
disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is
this waste? 9 For this ointment might have been sold for
much, and given to the poor. 10 When Jesus understood
it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a
good work upon me. 11 For ye have the poor always with
you; but me ye have not always. 12 For in that she hath
poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial. 13
Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the
whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told
for a memorial of her. 14 Then one of the twelve, called
Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests, 15 And said
unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And
they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver. 16
And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him. 17
Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the
disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for
thee to eat the passover? 18 And he said, Go into the
city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I
will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. 19
And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the
passover. 20 Now when the even was come, he sat down
with the twelve. 21 And as they did eat, he said, Verily
I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. 22 And
they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him,
Lord, is it I? 23 And he answered and said, He that
dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.
24 The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto
that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if
he had not been born. 25 Then Judas, which betrayed him,
answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.
26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it,
and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat;
this is my body.27
And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave
it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
28 For this is
my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of
sins. 29
But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine,
until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father�s kingdom.
30 And when
they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives. 31
Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this
night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the
flock shall be scattered abroad.
John 13:1-11
1 Now before the feast of the passover, when
Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto
the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto
the end. 2 And supper being ended, the devil having now
put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon�s son, to betray him;
3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into
his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; 4
He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and
girded himself. 5 After that he poureth water into a
bason, and began to wash the disciples� feet, and to wipe them with the
towel wherewith he was girded. 6 Then cometh he to Simon
Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? 7
Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou
shalt know hereafter. 8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt
never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part
with me. 9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet
only, but also my hands and my head. 10
Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his
feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all. 11
For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
John 18:1-14
1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went
forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the
which he entered, and his disciples. 2 And Judas also,
which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with
his disciples. 3 Judas then, having received a band
of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither
with lanterns and torches and weapons. 4 Jesus
therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said
unto them, Whom seek ye? 5 They answered him, Jesus of
Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which
betrayed him, stood with them. 6 As soon then as he had
said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said,
Jesus of Nazareth. 8 Jesus answered, I have told you
that I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:
9 That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, Of them
which thou gavest me have I lost none. 10 Then Simon
Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest�s servant, and cut off
his right ear. The servant�s name was Malchus. 11 Then
said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my
Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? 12 Then the
band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,
13 And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in
law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year 14
Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient
that one man should die for the people.
John 18:19-23
19 The high priest then asked Jesus of his
disciples, and of his doctrine. 20 Jesus answered him, I
spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple,
whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.
21 Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said
unto them: behold, they know what I said. 22 And when he
had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm
of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so? 23
Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if
well, why smitest thou me?
John 18:28
28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the
hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the
judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the
passover.
John 18:35-40
35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own
nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?
36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if
my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not
be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. 37
Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou
sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I
into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is
of the truth heareth my voice. 38 Pilate saith unto him,
What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and
saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all. 39
But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover:
will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews? 40
Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas
was a robber.
John 19:1-42
1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and
scourged him. 2 And the soldiers platted a crown
of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,
3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him
with their hands. 4 Pilate therefore went forth again,
and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I
find no fault in him. 5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing
the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them,
Behold the man! 6 When the chief priests therefore and
officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.
Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no
fault in him. 7 The Jews answered him, We have a law,
and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
8 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more
afraid; 9 And went again into the judgment hall, and
saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. 10
Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that
I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee? 11
Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except
it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath
the greater sin. 12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought
to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou
art not Caesar�s friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against
Caesar. 13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he
brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is
called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. 14 And
it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith
unto the Jews, Behold your King! 15 But they cried out,
Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto
them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king
but Caesar. 16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them
to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away. 17
And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of
a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: 18
Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and
Jesus in the midst. 19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put
it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE
JEWS. 20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the
place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in
Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. 21 Then said
the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but
that he said, I am King of the Jews. 22 Pilate answered,
What I have written I have written. 23 Then the
soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four
parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was
without seam, woven from the top throughout. 24 They
said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it,
whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They
parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These
things therefore the soldiers did. 25 Now there stood by
the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother�s sister, Mary the wife
of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus therefore
saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his
mother, Woman, behold thy son! 27 Then saith he to the
disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto
his own home. 28 After this, Jesus knowing that
all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled,
saith, I thirst. 29 Now there was set a vessel full of
vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop,
and put it to his mouth. 30 When Jesus therefore
had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and
gave up the ghost. 31 The Jews therefore, because it was
the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the
sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that
their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and
of the other which was crucified with him. 33 But when
they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his
side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. 35
And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth
that he saith true, that ye might believe. 36 For these
things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall
not be broken. 37 And again another scripture saith,
They shall look on him whom they pierced. 38 And after
this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of
the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and
Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.
39 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came
to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred
pound weight. 40 Then took they the body of
Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the
Jews is to bury. 41 Now in the place where he was
crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was
never man yet laid. 42 There laid they Jesus therefore
because of the Jews� preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at
hand.
Romans 5:8-9
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in
that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath
through him.
Romans 5:18-21
18 Therefore as by the offence of one
judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness
of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
19 For as by one man�s disobedience many were made
sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. 20
Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin
abounded, grace did much more abound: 21 That as sin
hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto
eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
Hebrews 9:12
12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves,
but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained
eternal redemption for us.
Hebrews 9:16-28
16 For where a testament is, there must
also of necessity be the death of the testator. 17 For a
testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no
strength at all while the testator liveth. 18 Whereupon
neither the first testament was dedicated without blood. 19
For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the
law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool,
and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, 20
Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined
unto you. 21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the
tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. 22 And
almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of
blood is no remission. 23 It was therefore
necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with
these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made
with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself,
now to appear in the presence of God for us: 25 Nor yet
that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy
place every year with blood of others; 26 For then must
he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the
end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but
after this the judgment: 28 So Christ was once offered
to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the
second time without sin unto salvation.
Hebrews 10:10-25
10 By the which will we are sanctified through
the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. 11
And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same
sacrifices, which can never take away sins: 12 But this
man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the
right hand of God; 13 From henceforth expecting till his
enemies be made his footstool. 14 For by one offering he
hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. 15
Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said
before, 16 This is the covenant that I will make
with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their
hearts, and in their minds will I write them; 17 And
their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. 18
Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the
holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20 By a new and living
way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his
flesh; 21 And having an high priest over the
house of God; 22 Let us draw near with a true heart in
full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience,
and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold
fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is
faithful that promised;) 24 And let us consider one
another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25 Not
forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is;
but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day
approaching.
Matthew 16:5
5 And when his disciples were come to the other
side, they had forgotten to take bread.
Matthew 16:12
12 Then understood they how that he bade
them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the
Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
I Corinthians 3:9
9 For we are labourers together with God: ye
are God�s husbandry, ye are God�s building.
I Corinthians 3:17
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him
shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
I Corinthians 5:6-8
6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not
that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge
out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened.
For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: 8
Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven
of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity
and truth.
You are not to just put away the leavening out of your home
that is physical, but you are to put away the leavening out of your mind and
Spirit; which is the teachings of this world system, especially the religious
teaching of the church world. Then you need to make a commitment to Yahweh to
walk in newness of mind and to follow His teachings through His Word, and to
put away that old man of sin. Keep His appointed Feast days.
I Peter 1:18-20
18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not
redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain
conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 19
But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and
without spot: 20 Who verily was foreordained before the
foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
I Corinthians 10:15-18
15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.
16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the
communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the
communion of the body of Christ? 17 For we being
many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one
bread. 18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they
which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
I Corinthians 11:23-29
23 For I have received of the Lord that which
also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which
he was betrayed took bread: 24 And when he had given
thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is
broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 25 After
the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This
cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it,
in remembrance of me. 26 For as often as ye eat this
bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord�s death till he come.
27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this
cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the
Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him
eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. 29
For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to
himself, not discerning the Lord�s body.
