THE FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD / EXODUS 12:17

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 12:17

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.

THE FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD / EXODUS 12:17

Exodus 12:15-20 describes the Feast of Unleavened Bread that Israel was to celebrate after they entered Canaan, the promised land. This feast represented how God saved and separated His people from Egypt in order to fulfill His purposes. Yeast, which causes a rising or swelling and indicates a change known as fermentation, symbolizes sin. Unleavened bread (having no yeast) symbolized repentance. True repentance means rejecting sin and turning away from it in order to turn toward God and embrace His way of life (Exodus 13:7).

  1. All yeast, which symbolized worldly corruption and sin, had to be removed from the Israelites’ houses. This act represented how their lives and homes were to be pure and reserved for God (Exodus 12:15-16) because of what He had done for them (Exodus 13:8-9). The New Testament makes a link between this Feast of Unleavened Bread and Christians removing “malice and wickedness” from their lives and living in “sincerity and truth” (1 Corinthians 5:6-8).
  2. Failure to turn from sin and demonstrate faith toward God resulted in judgment. This meant being removed from God’s covenant, forfeiting salvation (Exodus 12:15) and giving up a relationship with God. 
  3. The Passover meal was the signal that the Feast of Unleavened Bread had started (Exodus 12:6, 18-19). For a New Testament Christian, this shows the importance of faith, obedience and gratitude toward Christ, the ultimate sacrificial Lamb.

MUST BE CUT OFF FROM ISRAEL / EXODUS 12:15

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 12:15

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.

MUST BE CUT OFF FROM ISRAEL / EXODUS 12:15

Deliberately rejecting God’s instruction resulted in severe judgment (Exodus 12:19). The guilty person was expelled, or removed, from the community, sometimes by death (Exodus 31:14). Under the new covenant, those who reject Christ and choose to remain in sin exclude themselves from God’s grace and salvation.

A LASTING ORDINANCE / EXODUS 12:14

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 12:14

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.

A LASTING ORDINANCE / EXODUS 12:14

The Passover feast was supposed to be an annual celebration for Israel. New Testament Christians are to participate regularly in the Lord’s Supper, or communion, which carries on the prophetic significance of the Passover (Matthew 26:26; 1 Corinthians 11:24-25; 1 Corinthians 5:7-8).

BITTER HERBS AND BREAD MADE WITHOUT YEAST / EXODUS 12:8

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 12:8

And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.

BITTER HERBS AND BREAD MADE WITHOUT YEAST / EXODUS 12:8

The bread eaten along with the Passover lam was made with no yeast (Exodus 12:8). Since the Bible often mentions yeast to represent sin and corruption (Exodus 13:7; Matthew 16:6; Mark 8:15), this unleavened bread represented Israel’s separation from Egypt, which symbolized worldliness and sin (Exodus 12:15). This shows how individuals who follow God and have a personal relationship with Him must separate themselves from the sinful world and dedicate themselves to God alone. 

The “bitter herbs” would remind the Israelites of their bitter times as slaves in Egypt (Romans 6:21).

THEY ARE TO TAKE SOME OF THE BLOOD / EXODUS 12:7

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 12:7

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.

THEY ARE TO TAKE SOME OF THE BLOOD / EXODUS 12:7

The Passover lamb and its blood point to Jesus Christ and the blood He shed as “the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29; John 1:36: Isaiah 53:7; Acts 8:32-35; 1 Corinthians 5:7; Revelation 13:8).

THE FIRST MONTH OF YOUR YEAR / EXODUS 12:1-2

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 12:1-2

And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying, 2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.

THE FIRST MONTH OF YOUR YEAR / EXODUS 12:1-2

Exodus 12 describes the Feast of the Passover (Exodus 12:1-14, 21-28) and the Feast of Unleavened Bread (Exodus 12:15-20). These celebrations were based on the historical events of the first Passover (when God spared the Israelites from harm) at the time of the exodus (Exodus 12 – 14). Because the Passover marked a new beginning for Israel, the month in which it occurred (March – April in our calendar) became “the first month” of a new year for the nation of Israel. The Lord wanted to remind Israel that their place as God’s people and their existence as a nation were the result of God miraculously rescuing them from Egypt.

SETTLE DOWN AND EARN / 2 THESSALONIANS 3:12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 2 Thessalonians 3:12

Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.

SETTLE DOWN AND EARN / 2 THESSALONIANS 3:12

The apostle admonishes the church that Christians must not be lazy. Instead, they must be hardworking, conscientious and productive people as part of their testimony and influence for Christ (Titus 3:14). They must work hard in order to provide for themselves and their families and to contribute to God’s work and help others in need (1 Corinthians 16:1; 2 Corinthians 8:1-15; Ephesians 4:28).

NOT BUSY … BUSYBODIES / 2 THESSALONIANS 3:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 2 Thessalonians 3:11

For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.

NOT BUSY … BUSYBODIES / 2 THESSALONIANS 3:11

These people were even worse than the “idle” and lazy people because they interfered in other people’s business, which is often a result of having too much idle time.

WHO IS IDLE / 2 THESSALONIANS 3:6

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 2 Thessalonians 3:6

Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.

WHO IS IDLE / 2 THESSALONIANS 3:6

Those who were idle were people who were lazy and unwilling to work. Some were too proud to do certain types of work, and others thought that Christ’s soon return meant that they did not need to occupy themselves with working to make a living. As a result, they were taking advantage of the church’s generosity (1 Thessalonians 4:9-10) and receiving support from others who made a living by faithful labor in their various occupations (2 Thessalonians 3:6-15). 

  1. Paul says that, as an act of discipline and correction, we must keep away from lazy people and not associate with them (2 Thessalonians 3:6, 14).
  2. Although Paul encourages the believers to help those in real need, he does not teach that Christians ought to give food or money to able-bodied people who refuse to work faithfully for a living (2 Thessalonians 3:10). This principle applies just as much today.
