Book ◦ Chapter

For seven days there must be no leaven found in your houses.
The command to remove leaven for seven days is part of the observance of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which immediately follows Passover. Leaven, or yeast, symbolizes sin and corruption due to its fermenting process. The seven-day period represents completeness and total purification. This practice is a reminder of the haste with which the Israelites left Egypt, not having time to let their bread rise. It also signifies a call to holiness and separation from sin, as seen in1 Corinthians 5:7-8, where Paul urges believers to purge the old leaven.

If anyone eats something leavened,
Eating leavened bread during this period is a direct violation of God's command and symbolizes a return to sin and corruption. The act of eating leavened bread during the Feast of Unleavened Bread is seen as a serious offense because it undermines the spiritual significance of the festival. This command underscores the importance of obedience and the need for spiritual vigilance.

that person, whether a foreigner or native of the land,
The inclusion of both foreigners and natives indicates the universal application of God's laws to all who are part of the community of Israel. This reflects the inclusive nature of God's covenant, which extends beyond ethnic boundaries. It also foreshadows the New Testament teaching that salvation through Christ is available to all, Jew and Gentile alike, as seen inGalatians 3:28.

must be cut off from the congregation of Israel.
Being "cut off" implies a severe penalty, possibly excommunication or even death, depending on the context. This punishment highlights the seriousness of disobedience and the need for communal purity. It serves as a deterrent against sin and maintains the sanctity of the community. This concept is echoed in the New Testament in passages likeMatthew 18:15-17, where church discipline is discussed.

Persons / Places / Events

1.Israelites
The descendants of Jacob, chosen by God to be His people, who are in the process of being delivered from slavery in Egypt.

2.Egypt
The land where the Israelites were enslaved and from which God is delivering them through the events of the Passover.

3.Passover
The event where God passed over the houses of the Israelites marked with lamb's blood, sparing them from the plague of the firstborn.

4.Leaven
A substance, typically yeast, used to ferment dough. In this context, it symbolizes sin and corruption.

5.Congregation of Israel
The assembly of the Israelites, God's chosen people, who are to remain pure and obedient to His commands.

Teaching Points

Symbolism of Leaven
Leaven represents sin and corruption. Just as leaven spreads through dough, sin can permeate and corrupt our lives if not removed.

Call to Holiness
The command to remove leaven is a call to holiness and purity. Believers are to examine their lives and remove anything that leads to sin.

Community Responsibility
The instruction to cut off anyone who eats leavened bread highlights the importance of community purity and accountability within the body of believers.

Inclusivity of God's Commands
The inclusion of both foreigners and natives in this command shows that God's standards apply to all who are part of His community.

Spiritual Preparation
Just as the Israelites prepared for their deliverance by removing leaven, believers are to prepare their hearts for Christ's return by living righteously.

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(19)A stranger--i.e., a foreigner in blood, who has been adopted into the nation, received circumcision, and become a full proselyte. It is not improbable that many of the "six hundred thousand" reckoned to "Israel" (Exodus 12:37) were of this class--persons who had joined themselves to the nation during the sojourn in Egypt, or even earlier. (See Note onGenesis 17:13.) When the "exclusiveness" of the Hebrews is made a charge against them, justice requires us to remember that from the first it was open to those who were not of Hebrew blood to share in the Hebrew privileges by accepting the covenant of circumcision, and joining themselves to the nation. It was in this way that the Kenites. and even the Gibeonites, became reckoned to Israel.

Born in the land.--Hob.,natives of the land: i.e., of Canaan. Canaan was regarded as belonging to Abraham and his descendants from the time of the first promise (Genesis 12:7). Thenceforth it was their true home: they were its expatriated inhabitants.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 19. - This is not a mere "vain repetition" of verse 15. It adds an important extension of the punitive clause - "that soul shall be cut off from Israel" - from Israelites proper to proselytes. We are thus reminded, at the very time when Israel is about to become a nation and to enter upon its inheritance of exclusive privileges, that no exclusion of the Gentiles by reason of race or descent was ever contemplated by God, either at the giving of the law, or at any other time. In Abraham all the families of them were to be blessed (Genesis 12:3). It was always open to any Gentiles to join themselves to Israel by becoming "proselytes of justice," adopting circumcision and the general observance of the law, and joining the Israelite community. The whole law is full of references to persons of this class (Exodus 20:10;Exodus 23:12;Leviticus 16:29;Leviticus 17:10;Leviticus 18:26;Leviticus 20:2;Leviticus 24:16;Numbers 35:15;Deuteronomy 5:14;Deuteronomy 16:11-14;Deuteronomy 24:17, 19;Deuteronomy 27:19;Deuteronomy 29:11, etc.). It must have been largely recruited in the times immediately following the exodus from the "mixed multitude" which accompanied the Israelites out of Egypt (Exodus 12:38), and from the Kenites who joined them in the wilderness (Numbers 10:29-31;Judges 1:16).Born in the land -i.e., an Israelite by birth - "the land" is, no doubt, Canaan, which is regarded as the true "Land of Israel" from the time when it was assigned by God to the posterity of Abraham (Genesis 15:18).
