Today is the 31st day of the month of March. Welcome to the Daily Audio Bible. I'm Brian. Welcome

back. Wow. So we're concluding the first quarter of the year already. It just goes like that. The first quarter of the year,

look at all that has happened in the scriptures. Look at all that has happened in our lives.

so you will remember, for the rest of your lives the day you came out of the land of Egypt. There must not be a scrap of yeast within your

land for seven days, nor can any of the meat you sacrifice on the evening of the first day remain

until the next morning.

You may not sacrifice the Passover in just any of your villages that the Lord your God is

giving you, but you must sacrifice it in the evening in the place where he chooses to locate his

name. At sunsets, the time of day you came out of Egypt. You must cook and eat it

in the place the Lord your God chooses. You may return the next morning to your tents. You
