Shoes on the feet
So that, when day has come, he may be able to go out unhindered, he is commanded to be shod. And in this it also shows something clearer about the resurrection of flesh, it too coming out with us as we go out of Egypt. For we must put to death the members that are on the earth — fornication, uncleanness, wantonness, idolatry, and the rest — and so come out of Egypt (Colossians 3:5) (1 Corinthians 15:42–44) (Romans 8:11).

Ἵνα, ἡμέρας γενομένης, ἀνεμποδίστως ἐξελθεῖν δυνηθῇ, ὑποδεδέσθαι κελεύεται, ἐν τούτῳ δὲ καὶ ἐμφανέστερόν τι δηλοῖ τὰ περὶ ἀναστάσεως σαρκός, συνεξεργομένης καὶ αὐτῆς ἡμῖν τὴν Αἴγυπτον ἐξιούσιν· νεκρῶσαι γὰρ ἡμᾶς τὰ μέλη|| δεῖ τὰ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς πορνείαν ἀκαθαρσίαν ἀσέλγειαν εἰδωλολατρίαν καὶ τὰ ἑξῆ[ς] καὶ οὕτω τὴν Αἴγυπτον ἐξε[λθ]εῖν.
