Bible Question: In Exodus 12:11, what is the significance of the Lord telling the people to eat in haste with their cloaks tucked into their belt, sandals on their feet and with their staff in their hand? |
Bible Answer: Jellybean66, You have posted a very interesting question which may result in numerous answers. Since this is the passover and God usually includes "some clues for the future," it could be several "pictures." The death angel is coming, he will "passover those under the blood." I think, in a sense, it is a picture of when God will take the righteous out of this world "in the blink of an eye." Hurry, make haste, be prepared for God is coming." "It is the Lord's passover." Let's see who and what the others on the forum think? God bless, InGodITrust |
