Deuteronomy 16:5-8 - Except in the place He will choose

16:5,6

We have another emphasis on the Passover meal being eaten in the place of God’s choosing. It was not to be “in any town the Lord your God gives  you”. All the towns were given to them by God, but that did not mean the Passover could be eaten there. The Passover was to be eaten in the evening, because that was the time of their departure from Egypt. There is emphasis on the reality of the events. In the same way, the cross and resurrection are real events, they actually happened.


16:7,8

The meat was to be roasted and eaten in the place of the Lord’s choosing. After this they were to eat unleavened bread for six days. An assembly was to be held on the seventh day and no work was to be done.
