This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The passover was both a sacrifice, as it was offered to God, as it appears from Exo_23:18 34:25 Num_9:7,13 Deu 16:2,5; and because there was in it the shedding and sprinkling of blood, wherein the essence of a sacrifice consists, 2Ch_30:16 35:11,13; and also a sacrament, as it was received and eaten by men. The people bowed the head, in token of their thankful acknowledgment of God’s favours, and of their cheerful submission to God’s command and ordinance. See 2Ch_29:30.
