Exodus 10:11 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 10:11

Not so
You shall not go with your children as you propose:

go now ye [that are] men, and serve the Lord, for that you did desire;
suggesting that that was all they first required, that their men should, go three days into the wilderness, and sacrifice unto the Lord; whereas the demand was, let my people go, ( Exodus 5:1 ) which were not the men only, but the women and children also, and all were concerned in the service of God, and in keeping a feast to him:

and they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence;
by some of his officers, according to his orders.

Exodus 10:11 In-Context

9 Moses replied, "We will go with our young and our old; we will go with our sons and daughters and with our flocks and herds because we must hold the Lord's festival."

10 He said to them, "May the Lord be with you if I [ever] let you and your families go! Look out-you are planning evil.

11 No, only the men may go and worship the Lord, for that is what you have been asking for." And they were driven from Pharaoh's presence.

12 The Lord then said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt and the locusts will come up over it and eat every plant in the land, everything that the hail left."

13 So Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and the Lord sent an east wind over the land all that day and through the night. By morning the east wind had brought in the locusts.
