This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Exo_12:11 And thus shall ye eat it; [with] your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it [is] the LORD’S passover.
Ver. 11. With your loins girded.] As pressed and intent to the service. So we should be at all times, but especially when to depart out of the Egypt of this life, and to take heaven by force. Then, if ever, we should hoc agere, "gird up the loins of our minds," &c. {1Pe_1:13}
And ye shall eat it in haste.] As not doubting of deliverance, and waiting a call out of life.
It is the Lord’s Passover.] A sacramental expression, like that of our Saviour, "This is my body". {Mat_26:26} {See Trapp on "Mat_26:26"} The sacraments of the Old Testament were both sacraments and types: but those of the New, are sacraments only.
