Answered in 1 source

Exodus 12 commands the Israelites to eat unleavened bread and remove leaven from their houses to signify purity and obedience to God's instruction.

In Exodus 12, God commands the Israelites to observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread by removing all leaven from their homes for seven days. Leaven, a symbol of sin and corruption, signifies the need for purity in worship and living. Anyone who eats leavened bread during this time is warned that they will be cut off from Israel, emphasizing the seriousness of adhering to God's commands. This instruction serves as a clear reminder that God's holiness demands obedience and purity.
