12:1 While the Israelites were still in the land of Egypt, the Lord gave the following instructions to Moses and Aaron: 2 “From now on, this month will be the first month of the year for you.
It's Bigger Than We Thought ...
When God sets you free,
It's not just a "new day;"
It's a whole new calendar.

3 Announce
to the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month
each family must choose a lamb or a young goat for a sacrifice, one
animal for each household.
4 If
a family is too small to eat a whole animal, let them share with
another family in the neighborhood. Divide the animal according to the
size of each family and how much they can eat. 5 The animal you select must be a one-year-old male, either a sheep or a goat, with no defects.
