Exodus 10:25 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 10:25

And Moses said, thou must give us also sacrifices and
burnt offerings
Sheep, rams, and goats for sacrifices, and oxen for burnt offerings; and that of his own, as Jarchi interprets it; but rather the meaning is, that besides having their little ones with them, they must be allowed also to take their cattle for sacrifices and burnt offerings: that we may sacrifice unto the Lord our God;
might have wherewith to offer up in sacrifice to him as he shall require.

Exodus 10:25 In-Context

23 People could not see one another, and for three days they could not move from where they were; but all the Israelites had light where they lived.

24 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses, and said, "Go, worship the Lord. Only your flocks and your herds shall remain behind. Even your children may go with you."

25 But Moses said, "You must also let us have sacrifices and burnt offerings to sacrifice to the Lord our God.

26 Our livestock also must go with us; not a hoof shall be left behind, for we must choose some of them for the worship of the Lord our God, and we will not know what to use to worship the Lord until we arrive there."

27 But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he was unwilling to let them go.
