Wesley's Notes

5:10 The passover - Which was their third passover: the first was in Egypt, Exod 12:11 - 24, the second at mount Sinai, Numb 9:1 - 5, the third here; for in their wilderness travels, these and all other sacrifices were neglected, Amos 5:25. While they were in the wilderness, they were denied the comfort of this ordinance, as a farther token of God's displeasure. But now God comforted them again, after the time that he had afflicted them.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

10. kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even-The time fixed by the law (see on [177]Ex 12:17; [178]Le 23:5; [179]Nu 28:16). Thus the national existence was commenced by a solemn act of religious dedication.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

5:10-12 A solemn passover was kept, at the time appointed by the law, in the plains of Jericho, in defiance of the Canaanites round about them. It was a performance of the promise, that when they went up to keep the feasts, their land should be under the special protection of the Divine providence, Ex 34:24. Notice is taken of the ceasing of the manna as soon as they had eaten the old corn of the land. For as it came just when they needed, so it continued as long as they needed it. This teaches us not to expect supplies by miracles, when they may be had in a common way. The word and ordinances of God are spiritual manna, with which God nourishes his people in this wilderness. Though often forfeited, yet they are continued while we are here; but when we come to the heavenly Canaan, this manna will cease, for we shall no longer need it.


Exodus 12:18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty-first day of the month at evening.
Joshua 4:19 Now the people came up from the Jordan on the tenth of the first month and camped at Gilgal on the eastern edge of Jericho. (NASB ©1995)
