²⁶ And when your children^(A) ask you, ‘What does this ceremony mean to you?’ ²⁷ then tell them, ‘It is the Passover^(B) sacrifice to the Lord, who passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt and spared our homes when he struck down the Egyptians.’”^(C) Then the people bowed down and worshiped.^{(D) 28} The Israelites did just what the Lord commanded^(E) Moses and Aaron.
