Éxodo 5:11 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 5:11

Go ye, get ye straw, where you can find it
Before it was provided by the king, and brought to the brickkilns, but now they are bid to go and fetch it themselves, and get it where they could, whether in fields or barns; and if they were obliged to pay for it out of their labour; it was a greater oppression still:

yet not ought of your work shall be diminished;
they were to do the same work, and make the same number of bricks, as when straw was brought and given them; and no allowance made for waste of time in seeking, or expenses in procuring straw, which was very hard upon them.

Éxodo 5:11 In-Context

9 Impónganles tareas más pesadas. Manténganlos ocupados. Así no harán caso de mentiras».
10 Los capataces y los jefes de cuadrilla salieron de allí y fueron a decirle al pueblo: «Así dice el faraón: “Ya no voy a darles paja.
11 Vayan ustedes mismos a recogerla donde la encuentren. Pero eso sí, ¡en nada se les rebajará la tarea!”»
12 Fue así como el pueblo se esparció por todo Egipto para recoger rastrojo y usarlo en lugar de paja.
13 Los capataces no dejaban de apremiarlos y decirles: «Cumplan con su tarea diaria, como cuando se les daba paja».
