MEDITATION
Exodus 13:5-10
5 And it shall be, when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this service in this month.
6 Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to the LORD.
7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days. And no leavened bread shall be seen among you, nor shall leaven be seen among you in all your quarters.
8 And you shall tell your son in that day, saying, ‘This is done because of what the LORD did for me when I came up from Egypt.’
9 It shall be as a sign to you on your hand and as a memorial between your eyes, that the LORD’s law may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand the LORD has brought you out of Egypt.
10 You shall therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.

沉思
《出埃及 13:5-10》
5 将来耶和华领你进迦南人、赫人、亚摩利人、希未人、耶布斯人之地,就是他向你的祖宗起誓应许给你那流奶与蜜之地,那时你要在这月间守这礼。
6 你要吃无酵饼七日,到第七日要向耶和华守节。
7 这七日之久,要吃无酵饼,在你四境之内不可见有酵的饼,也不可见发酵的物。
8 当那日,你要告诉你的儿子说:‘这是因耶和华在我出埃及的时候为我所行的事。’
9 这要在你手上做记号,在你额上做纪念,使耶和华的律法常在你口中,因为耶和华曾用大能的手将你从埃及领出来。10 所以你每年要按着日期守这例。
