Exodus 12:45

43 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: No foreigner is to eat of it.

44 But any slave who has been purchased may eat of it, after you have circumcised him.

A temporary resident or hired hand shall not eat the Passover.

46 It must be eaten inside one house. You are not to take any of the meat outside the house, and you may not break any of the bones.

47 The whole congregation of Israel must celebrate it.
