Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
Ver. 2. Is the feast of the passover] At which feast, Christ our passover was sacrificed for us,1 Corinthians 5:7, and we were purchased by his blood, as Israel was typically out of the world by the blood of the paschal lamb; our hearts being sprinkled therewith by the hyssop bunch of faith, from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water, Hebrews 10:22 .
