Deuteronomy Chapter 13 / Chapter 14 / Chapter 15 / Chapter 16; lines 1016-1060 confidence: high
Passover is kept in Abib because Yahweh brought the community out of Egypt by night; sacrifice occurs at Yahweh’s chosen place, unleavened bread is eaten seven days, yeast is excluded, the sacrifice is at evening, and the seventh day is a solemn no-work assembly.
Multiple feasts and appearances are directed to the place Yahweh chooses to cause his name to dwell.
