12:15 without yeast: Israel needed unleavened bread for traveling (see 12:34, 39), which the festival commemorated. Later, yeast was seen as an image of sin, probably because it is an agent of fermentation (“Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees,” Matt 16:6). • cut off from the community: This means either death or expulsion from the community.
