17
Und so beobachtet das Fest der ungesäuerten Brote; denn an diesem selbigen Tage habe ich eure Heere aus dem Lande Ägypten herausgeführt. Und ihr sollt diesen Tag beobachten bei euren Geschlechtern als ewige Satzung.
2 Mose 12:17
Arcana Coelestia＃7882
7882. 'You shall keep it as a feast to Jehovah' means worship of the Lord because of deliverance from damnation. This is clear from the meaning of 'keeping a feast to Jehovah' as worship of the Lord, in particular because of deliverance from damnation, this being why that day is a feast day. The fact that the Passover was instituted because of the deliverance by the Lord of those who belonged to the spiritual Church, see 7867.
