Commentary on Exodus 10:26

Theological / Devotional

Not an hoof. Moses refused Pharaoh’s proposed compromise in unmistakable words. He had already declared, on a former occasion, that they would go with their families and all their beasts (v. 9), and this stipulation he would by no means retract now.

We know not. Moses offered an explanation for his refusal. The proposed feast was new and its ritual was not yet known. Exact directions could not be expected until they had reached the location God should designate. The cattle must be taken with them because the feast would certainly require the offering of sacrifices.
