Matthew Henry

1662–1714

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

A gospel conversation, in gratitude for Christ our passover who was sacrificed, is called the keeping of this feast ( 1 Cor. v. 8 ); for it is not enough that we purge out the leavened bread of malice and wickedness, but we must offer the bread of our God, even the sacrifice of praise, continually, and continue herein unto the end.

This site's exposition

The fourteenth day of the first month

on Numbers 28:16-19

The dates of the Passover and the seven-day Feast of Unleavened Bread stand as Exodus 12:6 and Leviticus 23:5-6 had set them. This chapter adds the altar offering for those days, which Barnes observes had not been prescribed before.

This site's exposition

a burnt offering of two young bulls

Matthew Henry reads the size of the offering, given on every day of the week, as thanks for the deliverance from Egypt. Every animal had to be unblemished. The Passover lamb commemorated the night itself, and these offerings filled the week that followed.
