(49) Eor this reason the Lord commanded the children of Israel to observe the passover on the day of its fixed time, and they shall not break a bone thereof; for it is a festival day, and a day commanded, and 4 t. e. any time between p.m. and a.m. The Rabbis limited the eating to midnight. there may be no passing over from clay to day, and month to month, but on the day of its festival let it be observed.

(49) Remember the commandment which the Lord commanded thee concerning the passover, that thou shouldst celebrate it in its season on the four- teenth of the first month, that thou shouldst kill it before it is evening, and that they should eat it by night on the evening4 of the fifteenth from the time of the setting of the sun.

(49) Let the children of Israel come and observe the passover on the day of its fixed time, on the fourteenth day of the first month, between the evenings, from the third part of the day to the third part of the night, for two portions of the day are given to the light, and a third part to the evening.
