Commentary on Exodus 12:45

The exclusion of 'foreigner' (toshav, תּוֹשָׁב—temporary resident) and 'hired servant' (sachir, שָׂכִיר—day laborer) distinguishes between committed covenant members and those temporarily present. These categories lacked permanent commitment to Israel and thus couldn't participate in covenant meals. The principle: covenant privileges require covenant membership. Casual association doesn't grant sacramental participation.
