Ezra 6:19-21

The Voice

¹⁹ The exiles observed their first Passover Feast in the new temple on the 14th day of the first month. ²⁰ After the priests and Levites had purified themselves, the Levites slaughtered the Passover lamb on behalf of themselves and all the Jewish exiles. ²¹ Then the Jewish exiles and the proselytes who had abandoned their pagan nations to follow the Eternal God of Israel wholeheartedly ate the Passover feast.
