Ex 12:11-14. THE RITE OF THE PASSOVER.
11. thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your
feet--as prepared for a journey. The first was done by the skirts
of the loose outer cloth being drawn up and fastened in the girdle, so
as to leave the leg and knee free for motion. As to the other, the
Orientals never wear shoes indoors, and the ancient Egyptians, as
appears from the monuments, did not usually wear either shoes or
sandals. These injunctions seem to have applied chiefly to the first
celebration of the rite.
it is the Lord's passover--called by this name from the
blood-marked dwellings of the Israelites being passed over
figuratively by the destroying angel.
