What does the Bible say about strangers in the Passover?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that no stranger shall eat of the Passover unless they are circumcised.

In Exodus 12:43-49, the Lord lays down clear instructions regarding the Passover, emphasizing that no stranger shall partake of it. This restriction signifies the need for a covenant relationship with God, represented by circumcision. Those who are uncircumcised remain aliens to God's covenant people and are, therefore, excluded from the Passover celebration. This practice highlighted the concept of being a part of God’s chosen people, indicating that only those in a proper relationship with Him can partake in the blessings of His redemptive acts.
