naomi: There was that day back in Egypt...not that long ago, when we slew every firstborn infant whose door wasn't splashed with lamb's blood.
- Naomi is referring to the story in the Hebrew Bible and the Qur'an, of when Moses freed the Israelites who were enslaved by the Egyptians. He tried to make a deal with the Pharoah, and each time he refused to release the Israelites, God sent a plague. The ninth plague was the murder of all first born sons in Egypt by angels. The angels spared the Isarelites child, who they knew by the sign of the door lintel being marked with lamb's blood. the events are commemorated as the Jewish holiday of "Passover".
