Commentary on Deuteronomy 16:5

Theological / Devotional

Mayest not sacrifice. In the future the sacrifice might not be made in any private home or place, but only at the place appointed by Jehovah (see ch. 12:5, 11). The first Passover was eaten in the homes of the people in Egypt, on the eve of their flight. There was then no sanctuary, no holy place of assembly, to which they could gather.
