The Key Word — חֻקַּ֥ת, chu.Katgenerated
The word חֻקַּ֥ת (chuqqah) refers to a statute or ordinance, indicating a divine law prescribed for the Israelites. It emphasizes the legal and prescriptive nature of the commands regarding the Passover. The parsing shows it as a feminine singular construct, suggesting it is a specific statute pertaining to the Passover festival.
This term is used throughout the Torah to signify the importance of adherence to God's commands, particularly in the context of rituals and sacrifices. In this verse, it underscores the necessity of following all the statutes associated with the Passover.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse consists of several clauses, with the main action centered around the commands regarding the Passover. The finite verbs יַשְׁאִ֤ירוּ (they will leave over) and יִשְׁבְּרוּ (they will break) govern the actions that are prohibited.
The structure emphasizes the importance of the commands through the use of negation and instruction, clearly delineating what is not to be done in relation to the Passover sacrifice.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, the Hebrew verb יַשְׁאִ֤ירוּ is rendered as καταλείψουσιν, which means 'they will leave behind.' This choice indicates a similar emphasis on the act of leaving something over, maintaining the original intent of the command.
The use of συντρίψουσιν for יִשְׁבְּרוּ reflects a more intense connotation of breaking, suggesting a thoroughness in the prohibition against breaking the bones of the sacrifice.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text states that they must not leave any of it until morning or break any of its bones, and they must observe the Passover according to all its statutes. The Septuagint closely matches the Masoretic Text, with 12 out of 14 words agreeing, though its word order and articles differ. The Samaritan Pentateuch also agrees with the Masoretic Text in general but differs in one word, using 'חקות' (regulation) instead of the Masoretic 'חוקות' (statutes), indicating a slight variation in terminology.
לֹֽא־ יַשְׁאִ֤ירוּ מִמֶּ֙נּוּ֙ עַד־ בֹּ֔קֶר וְעֶ֖צֶם לֹ֣א יִשְׁבְּרוּ־ ב֑וֹ כְּכָל־ חֻקַּ֥ת הַפֶּ֖סַח יַעֲשׂ֥וּ אֹתֽוֹ׃

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.

Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

Passover
The name given to the chief of the three great historical annual festivals of the Jews. It was kept in remembrance of the Lord’s passing over the houses of the Israelites (Ex. 12:13) when the first born of all the Egyptians were destroyed. It is called also the “feast of unleavened bread” (Ex. 23:15; Mark 14:1; Acts 12:3), because during its celebration no leavened bread was to be eaten or even kept in the household (Ex. 12:15). The word afterwards came to denote the lamb that was slain at the feast (Mark 14:12-14;
the first of the three great annual festivals of the Israelites celebrated in the month Nisan (March-April, from the 14th to the 21st. (Strictly speaking the Passover only applied to the paschal supper and the feast of unleavened bread followed, which was celebrated to the 21st.) (For the corresponding dates in our month, see Jewish calendar at the end of this volume.) The following are the principal passages in the Pentateuch relating to the Passover: (Exodus 12:1-51; 13:3-10; 23:14-19; 34:18-26; Leviticus 23:4-14; Numbers 9:1-14; 28:16-25; 16:1-6) Why instituted . --This feast was instituted by God to commemorate the deliverance of the Israelites from Egyptian bondage and the sparing of their firstborn when the destroying…
