If a foreigner resides with you and wants to celebrate the LORD’s Passover, all the males in the household must be circumcised; then he may come near to celebrate it, and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised man may eat of it.
The whole congregation must keep it together, for all who share God's mercies owe Him thankful praise. Only the circumcised may sit at this table, just as none now approach the Lord's supper without baptism first; we must be born again by the word before we can be nourished by it.
