Commentary

Matthew Henry on Numbers 9:1-14

Here we have, I. An order given for the solemnization of the passover, the day twelvemonth after they came out of Egypt, on the fourteenth day of the first month of the second year, some days before they were numbered, for that was done in the beginning of the second month.

Loquutus est autem Jehova ad Mosen in deserto Sinai, anno secundo quo egressi sunt e terra Aegypti, mense primo, dicendo: 2. Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season. 2. Facient filii Israel Pesah in tempore suo. 3.
