Chametz and Matzah in Pesach Mitzrayim
Exegetical Approaches
Seven Day Prohibition of Chamtez
The Israelites celebrated a seven day holiday in Egypt, just as they did in future generations. Chametz was prohibited for the entire week.
No Prohibition of Chametz
In Egypt, the Children of Israel ate the Pesach sacrifice with matzah but were not prohibited from eating chamtez, nor obligated to eat matzah the week afterwards.
Which commands were relayed to the nation in Egypt? According to these commentators, although Hashem told Moshe both about Chag HaPesach (12:1-13) and about Chag HaMatzot (12:14-20) already in the beginning of Nissan, only the commands about Pesach were relayed to the people before the Exodus (12:21-27). The people were fist told about the seven day holiday and prohibition of chametz only after they left, as described in 13:3-8.
