Therfore let vs solemnize the feast not in the leauen of malice and craftinesse but in the vnleauened breade of sinceritie and truth The loynes of them that eate the Passeouer must be gyrded as prepared to a iourney in token that they that doe receyue Christ must be as Pilgrimes in this life and in readinesse to passe out of the Egypt of this world into the land of promise our heauenlye Heritage For we haue not here a Citie or place to dwell in but we must looke alwayes to the heauenly Hierusalem that our Sauiour hath purchased for vs. And therefore Luk. 12. Christ warneth vs That vve should haue our loines gyrded and lampes in our handes like vnto seruants that are readie looking for their maister vvhen he vvil come This feast of the Passeouer was ordeyned to be kept once euery yeare not only that the people shoulde themselues call to remembrance their Deliuerie but also by that occasion from time to time instruct their youth and teach them to vnderstande Gods great goodnesse towarde them and his Miraculous woorkes by hys myghtie hande wrought for them Wherefore we also at the solemnising of the memoriall of oure Passeouer should not onely * set forth the death and passion of Christ and the great mercies of GOD thereby brought vnto vs but teach our youth and children also that they may in like maner vnderstande the Benefit of our redemption in Christ and the sweet comfort that riseth thereof And Pharao called vnto Moses and Aaron by night saying rise vp c. Here is the effect of Gods mightie working for his people and the fulfilling of his promise that the obstinate and harde hearte of Pharao which had set himselfe against Gods purpose was nowe so broken that he was not onely wylling to let the Israelites go but also did Hasten them away to depart with speede so that they could not haue time to prepare themselues eyther bread or meate for the iourney in so much that they were faine to take their dowe before it was sowred and carie it on their shoulders And in remembrance of this fulfilling of their promise and of their speedie deliuerāce he willed them euer after to Solemnise the feast of vnleauened bread And the children of Israel did according to the saying of Moyses c. In this place is to be obserued the fulfilling of an other promise of God made not onely to Moses in the third Chapiter of this booke but to Abraham also manye yeares before Gene. 15. Knowe thou sayth God that thy seede shall be a straunger in a lande that is not his and the people therof shall keepe them vnder in bondage and shall afflict them foure hundred yeares but I will iudge that people and afterwarde they shal depart with great substance This promise is here fulfilled For the Israelites depart with great Treasure that they borrowed of the Egiptians As touching the doubt howe the Israelites might spoyle the Egiptians by borrowing their Iewels and not minding to come againe I haue spoken in the exposition of the thirde Chapiter Vers 21. 22. And the children of Israel toke their iourney from Ramesis to Sucoth c. God had promised to Abraham that he woulde multiply his seede as the starres of Heauen which we see in this place also notablie fulfilled Iacob entered into Egipt but with sixtie and sixe persons and nowe although they liued in great seruitude and bondage many yeares in so much that their men Children were slaine and murdered yet they be nowe growen to this great number of men beside Children The dwelling of the children of Israel while they dwelled in Egipt c. This number of yeares is not to be accompted from the entrance of Iacob into Egipt with his familie for that was but two hundred and ten yeres But the reckening must begin from that time that Abraham went into Egipt because of the Famine and from the time that the Promise was made to him for the blessing of his seede Gen. 15. This may appeare by the wordes of S. Paule Gal. 3. This I say that the lawe which beganne afterwarde beyonde 430. yeres doth not disanull the testament c. Whē Paule sayth The law that was made afterward he meaneth after the Promise made to Abraham whereof he had spoken in the wordes immediatly before So that from the promise made to Abraham vnto the making of the lawe was but little aboue .430 yeares And then all that time can not be assigned to the dwelling of the children of Israel in Egipt after Iacob came thether But because the seede of Abraham was so many yeares Pilgrimes in straunge landes therefore is it so sayde in this place Easter day at Euening praier Exodus 14.
