Éxodo 8:25

Listen to Éxodo 8:25
25 Entonces el faraón mandó llamar a Moisés y a Aarón y les dijo:

Éxodo 8:25 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 25 And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron
He and his people not being able to endure this plague of flies any longer; and we read in profane history of such creatures being so troublesome, that people have been obliged to quit their habitations, and seek for new ones; so Pausanias F20 relates of the inhabitants of Myus, that such a number of flies rose out of the lake, that the men were obliged to leave the city, and go to Miletus; so Aelian F21 reports, that the inhabitants of Megara were driven from thence by a multitude of flies, as were the inhabitants of Phaselis by wasps, which creatures also might be in this mixture of insects:

and said, go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land;
that is, in the land of Goshen, in the place where they were; he was willing to allow them the liberty of sacrificing to their God, which it seems they had before; but then he would not consent they should go out of the land to do it.

Éxodo 8:25 In-Context

23 Haré una clara distinción entre
mi pueblo y tu pueblo. Esta señal milagrosa ocurrirá mañana’”».
24 Y el Señor
hizo tal como había dicho. Una densa nube de moscas llenó el palacio del faraón y las casas de sus funcionarios. Todo el territorio de Egipto entró en un estado de caos por causa de las moscas.
25 Entonces el faraón mandó llamar a Moisés y a Aarón y les dijo:
—¡De acuerdo! Vayan y ofrezcan sacrificios a su Dios, pero háganlo aquí, dentro del reino.
26 Pero Moisés respondió:
—Eso no estaría bien. Los egipcios detestan los sacrificios que ofrecemos al Señor
nuestro Dios. Si ofrecemos nuestros sacrificios a la vista de ellos, nos apedrearán.
27 Para ofrecer sacrificios al Señor
nuestro Dios, tenemos que salir al desierto, a una distancia de tres días, tal como él nos ordenó.
