Luke xxii. 7 Then came the Day of UNLEAVENED BREAD, when the PASSOVER must be KILLED. 14 And when the Hour was come, he fat down, and the twelve Apostles with him. 15 And he said unto them, With Desire I have defired to eat this PASSOVER with you before I SUFFER. 16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the KINGDOM of GOD. Rev. v. 8 When he had taken the Book, the four Beasts, and four and twenty Elders fell down before the LAMB, having every one of them Harps, and golden Vials full of ODOURS, which are the PRAYERS of SAINTS. 9 And they sung a New Song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the Book, and to open the Seals thereof: for thou wast SLAIN, and hast REDEEMED Us to GOD by thy BLOOD, out of every Kindred, and Tongue, and People, and Nation. ro And haft made us unto our God, KINGS and PRIESTS. II And I beheld, and I heard the Voice of many Angels round about the THRONE, and the Beasts, and the Elders: and the Number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 Saying with a loud Voice, Worthy is the LAMB that was SLAIN, to receive Power, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGTH, and Honour, and GLORY, and BLESSING. 13 And every CREATURE which is in HEAVEN, and on the EARTH, and under the Earth, and such as are in the SEA, and all that are in them, heard I, faying, BLESSING, and Honour, and GLORY, and Power, be unto him that fitteth upon the THRONE, and unto the LAMB for ever and ever.

Ver. 1 A ND the LORD spake unto Mofes, saying, 3 And Moses said unto the People, Remember this DAY in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the House of BONDAGE3; for by STRENGTH of Hand the LORD brought you out from this Place: there shall no leavened Bread be eaten. 4 This Day came ye out, in the Month Abib. 5 And it shall be when the Lord shall bring thee into the Land which he sware unto thy Fathers, that thou shalt keep this SERVICE in this MONTH. 7 Unleavened Bread shall be eaten seven Days: and there shall no leavened Bread be seen with thee, neither shall there be Leaven seen with thee in all thy Quarters. 8. And thou shalt shew thy Son in that Day, saying, This is done because of that which the LORD did unto me, when I came forth out of Egypt. • Pfal. lxxviii.
