Deuteronomy 16:5-7
Common English Bible
5 You are not permitted to offer the Passover sacrifice in any of the cities that the Lord your God is giving you. 6 Instead, you must offer the Passover sacrifice at the location the Lord your God selects for his name to reside, at evening time, when the sun sets, which was the time you fled Egypt. 7 Cook it and eat it in the location that the Lord your God selects. The next morning you can return to your tents.
