The division of the slaughtered animals according to family groupings - with each group offering animals assigned to them - indicates a coordinated distribution ensuring all participants received their sacrificial portion. The phrase according to what was written in the law of Moses repeatedly emphasizes that this Passover was conducted according to the recovered Law's prescriptions. The systematic distribution reflected the festival's purpose of commemorating the Exodus redemption while including all members of the covenant community in the remembrance. This verse illustrates the principle that proper worship requires attention to prescribed forms and inclusive participation.
