The first passover was slain in Esrrnt; bv ach family iu their own house j the blood was Tecfived into a basin, and a bunch of hyssop was dipped in it, with which tbey Strnes the hntle aud the two side jposV but not the threshold, lest the blood should have been trod upon, which would have been profane it being a holy aign or. token.
