iii.  That  the  mode  in  which  they  should  do  so,  should  be  by
households  or  Paschal  companies,  iv.  That  each  Paschal
company  should  have  its  own  Paschal  victim,  v.  That  these
Paschal  victims  should  be  lambs  or  lyds,  males,  of  the  first
year.  vi.  That  they  should  be  taken  up  and  designated  for
the  Paschal  Sacrifice  on  the  tenth  of  the  Paschal  month ;  four
days  before  they  were  sacrificed,  vii.  That  all  should  be
sacrificed  at  one  time,  each  for  its  proper  company;  and  that
time  the  fourteenth  of  the  Paschal  month,  between  the  two
evenings,  viii.  That  the  victims,  so  sacrificed,  should  be  pre
pared  to  be  eaten  by  being  roasted  with  fire,  and  prepared
entire,  and  eaten  entire ;  and  with  unleavened  bread  and  bitter
herbs :  and  in  the  same  house,  and  before  morning — or  if
ought  remained  uneaten  till  the  morning,  it  should  be  burnt.
And  this  is  all  in  both  those  passages,  which  can  be  said  to
concern  the  ordinance  of  the  Passover,  and  the  rule  of  its  ob
servance,  as  such.  What  follows  in  the  first  in  particular,
xii.  15-20,  concerns  the  Feast  of  unleavened  Bread,  the  or
dinance  of  the  Azyma,  not  that  of  the  Passover.
