Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Exodus 12:8

_ _ roast with fire — for the sake of expedition; and this difference was always observed between the cooking of the paschal lamb and the other offerings (2 Chronicles 35:13).

_ _ unleavened bread — also for the sake of despatch (Deuteronomy 16:3), but as a kind of corruption (Luke 12:1) there seems to have been a typical meaning under it (1 Corinthians 5:8).

_ _ bitter herbs — literally, “bitters” — to remind the Israelites of their affliction in Egypt, and morally of the trials to which God’s people are subject on account of sin.

Matthew Henry's Commentary
