Exodus 12:16 in Context — Exodus 12

14 E hoje vos será em memória, e tereis de celebrá-lo como solenidade ao SENHOR durante vossas gerações; por estatuto perpétuo o celebrareis.

15 Sete dias comereis pães sem levedura; e assim o primeiro dia fareis que não haja levedura em vossas casas; porque qualquer um que comer levedado desde o primeiro dia até o sétimo, aquela alma será eliminada de Israel.

16 No primeiro dia haverá santa convocação, e também no sétimo dia tereis uma santa convocação; nenhuma obra se fará neles, exceto somente que prepareis o que cada qual houver de comer.

17 E guardareis a festa dos pães ázimos, porque em este mesmo dia tirei vossos exércitos da terra do Egito: portanto guardareis hoje em vossas gerações por costume perpétuo.

18 No mês primeiro, o dia catorze do mês pela tarde, comereis os pães sem levedura, até o vinte e um do mês pela tarde.
