Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834]
In one house - i. e. "in one company." Each lamb was to be entirely consumed by the members of one company, whether they belonged to the same household or not.

Break a bone - The typical significance of this injunction is recognized by John, (see the margin reference.) It is not easy to assign any other satisfactory reason for it. This victim alone was exempt from the general law by which the limbs were ordered to be separated from the body.

36 For [1063] these things [5023] were done [1096], that [2443] the scripture [1124] should be fulfilled [4137], A bone [3747] of him [846] shall [4937] not [3756] be broken [4937].

10 And ye shall let nothing of it remain [03498] until the morning [01242]; and that which remaineth [03498] of it until the morning [01242] ye shall burn [08313] with fire [0784].
11 And thus [03602] shall ye eat [0398] it; with your loins [04975] girded [02296], your shoes [05275] on your feet [07272], and your staff [04731] in your hand [03027]; and ye shall eat [0398] it in haste [02649]: it is the LORD'S [03068] passover [06453].
22 And ye shall take [03947] a bunch [092] of hyssop [0231], and dip [02881] it in the blood [01818] that is in the bason [05592], and strike [05060] the lintel [04947] and the two [08147] side posts [04201] with the blood [01818] that is in the bason [05592]; and none [0376] of you shall go out [03318] at the door [06607] of his house [01004] until the morning [01242].
4 And if the household [01004] be [01961] too little [04591] for the lamb [07716], let him and his neighbour [07934] next [07138] unto his house [01004] take [03947] it according to the number [04373] of the souls [05315]; every man [0376] according [06310] to his eating [0400] shall make your count [03699] for the lamb [07716].
