There was time in the bible I can remember, when people stayed in their homes, while death past them by.

 

Exo 12:23

For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.

 

We hear the word Passover, but how many of us really know what it is? When is it?

Why is this Passover different from all other Passovers?

 

In a word: Coronavirus.

 

It's going to change the mood at the table. And it's going to change the number of people seated there — immediate family only, please — when the annual holiday begins sundown April 8 and ends sundown April 16.

 

/Passover is a remembrance of a plague/.

 

The tenth plague of Egypt — the death of the firstborn — was a single night of terror, in which all the firstborn of Egypt "from the firstborn of Pharaoh on his throne, to the first born of the captive in the dungeon, and the first-born of cattle" (Exodus 12: 28 to 30) dropped dead.

 

The children of Israel, meanwhile, had special protection: lamb's blood, painted on the lintels, was the sign that the people within were to be "passed over" (Exodus 12: 21 to 23).
