Origen, on Exod 12:8

Origen · c. A.D. 184–253
Exod 12:8 · Douay-Rheims
“And they shall eat the flesh that night roasted at the fire, and unleavened bread with wild lettuce.”
On this verse:
“But we eat the flesh of the lamb and the unleavened bread with bitter herbs either by being grieved with a godly grief because of repentance for our sins, a grief which produces in us a repentance unto salvation which brings no regret, or by seeking and being nurtured from the visions of the truth which we discover because of our trials.”
