Exodus 12:26-28

Living Bible

²⁶ and your children ask, ‘What does all this mean? What is this ceremony about?’ ²⁷ you will reply, ‘It is the celebration of Jehovah’s passing over us, for he passed over the homes of the people of Israel, though he killed the Egyptians; he passed over our houses and did not come in to destroy us.’” And all the people bowed their heads and worshiped.

²⁸ So the people of Israel did as Moses and Aaron had commanded.
