📚 Historical Context
In the book of Exodus, the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt, and God was preparing to deliver them through a series of plagues, including the final one where the firstborn of Egypt would die. He commanded Moses and Aaron to instruct the people to celebrate the Passover by sacrificing a lamb and marking their doors with its blood, ensuring the angel of death would pass over their homes. This verse summarizes how the Israelites faithfully carried out these exact instructions, marking the culmination of God's deliverance and their readiness to leave Egypt.
