Exodus Chapter 12: This chapter introduces the Passover. PART 1

Yahuah gives instructions to the Israelites on how to prepare for the Passover meal and the significance of the lamb's blood, which is to be placed on the doorposts and lintels of their homes. This sign will protect the Israelites from the final plague. At midnight, Yahuah strikes down all the firstborn in Egypt, leading to a great mourning throughout the land. Pharaoh finally orders the Israelites to leave. The chapter also outlines the regulations for observing Passover in the future and marks the beginning of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt.
