Intertextuality Pair

Leviticus 19:33 → Exodus 12:48

Allusion

Later text

Leviticus 19:33BSB

When a foreigner resides with you in your land, you must not oppress him.

Earlier text

Exodus 12:48BSB

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.

Significance

Exodus 12:48 opens Passover participation to the foreigner (גֵּר, ger) who undergoes circumcision, granting him status "like a native of the land." Leviticus 19:33 extends this protective stance beyond ritual inclusion to daily life: "When a foreigner resides with you in your land, you must not oppress him." The shared concern for the ger links the two texts—what Exodus 12 establishes in cultic terms (access to the covenant meal), Leviticus 19 broadens into a social ethic prohibiting exploitation. Both passages presuppose that Israel's treatment of foreigners reflects their own remembered experience of vulnerability in Egypt.
