What did the death angel do in Egypt on the night of Passover?
On the night of Passover, the death angel passed throughout Egypt, killing every firstborn of man and beast. For Israel, the blood on the doorpost was a token; God said, "When I see the blood, I will pass over you." Thus Jewish families behind blood-marked doors were safe.
Les teaches that on the night of the Passover, the death angel was passing throughout Egypt and killing every firstborn of man and beast. God told Israel that the blood on the doorpost would be a token upon the houses where they were. The crucial point was not behavior, sinless living, or a particular way of worship; God said only, "When I see the blood, I will pass over you." Even amid the gross darkness upon Egypt, in Goshen every Jewish family had put the blood on the doorpost as instructed, and every Jew behind that door with the blood applied was totally safe.
