Commentary on Exodus 12:43
The LORD's 'ordinance of the passover' (chukat hapesach, חֻקַּת הַפֶּסַח) begins defining participation boundaries. 'No stranger shall eat thereof'—the Hebrew 'ben nekar' (בֶּן־נֵכָר) means foreign son, one outside the covenant. This exclusivity protects the sacredness of covenant signs. While grace extends to all who believe, covenant privileges require covenant membership. This principle continues in Christian baptism and communion.
