📚 Historical Context
In the historical context of Exodus, the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt, and God was preparing to deliver them through a series of plagues, with the Passover marking the final and most dramatic one. Moses and Aaron had just received detailed instructions from the Lord on how to observe the Passover, including sacrificing a lamb and applying its blood to their doorposts to protect their firstborn from the plague of death. This verse highlights the Israelites' immediate and faithful obedience to these commands, which was essential for their protection and the start of their exodus from Egypt.
