Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
| A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
| Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the Lord--Terrified by the preternatural darkness, the stubborn king relents, and proposes another compromise--the flocks and herds to be left as hostages for their return. But the crisis is approaching, and Moses insists on every iota of his demand. The cattle would be needed for sacrifice--how many or how few could not be known till their arrival at the scene of religious observance. But the emancipation of Israel from Egyptian bondage was to be complete. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| Your flocks and your herds - Pharaoh still exacts what would of course be a complete security for their return: but the demand was wholly incompatible with the object assigned for the journey into the wilderness. |
| The Scofield Bible Commentary, by Cyrus Ingerson Scofield, [1917] |
said, Go ye
That is, "Leave your property in the world." Compare (Mat 16:25-27); (Luk 18:18-25). |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| Only let your flocks and your herds be stayed - Pharaoh cannot get all he wishes; and as he sees it impossible to contend with Jehovah, he now consents to give up the Israelites, their wives and their children, provided he may keep their flocks and their herds. The cruelty of this demand is not more evident than its avarice. Had six hundred thousand men, besides women and children, gone three days' journey into the wilderness without their cattle, they must have inevitably perished, being without milk for their little ones, and animal food for their own sustenance, in a place where little as a substitute could possibly be found. It is evident from this that Pharaoh intended the total destruction of the whole Israelitish host. |
18 And [2532] a certain [5100] ruler [758] asked [1905] him [846], saying [3004], Good [18] Master [1320], what [5101] shall I do [4160] to inherit [2816] eternal [166] life [2222]?
19 And [1161] Jesus [2424] said [2036] unto him [846], Why [5101] callest thou [3004] me [3165] good [18]? none [3762] is good [18], save [1508] one [1520], that is, God [2316].
20 Thou knowest [1492] the commandments [1785], Do [3431] not [3361] commit adultery [3431], Do [5407] not [3361] kill [5407], Do [2813] not [3361] steal [2813], Do [5576] not [3361] bear false witness [5576], Honour [5091] thy [4675] father [3962] and [2532] thy [4675] mother [3384].
21 And [1161] he said [2036], All [3956] these [5023] have I kept [5442] from [1537] my [3450] youth [3503] up.
22 Now [1161] when Jesus [2424] heard [191] these things [5023], he said [2036] unto him [846], Yet [2089] lackest [3007] thou [4671] one [1520] thing: sell [4453] all [3956] that [3745] thou hast [2192], and [2532] distribute [1239] unto the poor [4434], and [2532] thou shalt have [2192] treasure [2344] in [1722] heaven [3772]: and [2532] come [1204], follow [190] me [3427].
23 And [1161] when he heard [191] this [5023], he was [1096] very sorrowful [4036]: for [1063] he was [2258] very [4970] rich [4145].
24 And [1161] when Jesus [2424] saw [1492] that he [846] was [1096] very sorrowful [4036], he said [2036], How [4459] hardly [1423] shall they [1525] that have [2192] riches [5536] enter [1525] into [1519] the kingdom [932] of God [2316]!
25 For [1063] it is [2076] easier [2123] for a camel [2574] to go [1525] through [1223] a needle's [4476] eye [5168], than [2228] for a rich man [4145] to enter [1525] into [1519] the kingdom [932] of God [2316].
25 For [1063] whosoever [3739] [302] will [2309] save [4982] his [846] life [5590] shall lose [622] it [846]: and [1161] whosoever [3739] [302] will lose [622] his [846] life [5590] for [1752] my [1700] sake [1752] shall find [2147] it [846].
26 For [1063] what [5101] is a man [444] profited [5623], if [1437] he shall gain [2770] the whole [3650] world [2889], and [1161] lose [2210] his own [846] soul [5590]? or [2228] what [5101] shall a man [444] give [1325] in exchange [465] for his [846] soul [5590]?
27 For [1063] the Son [5207] of man [444] shall [3195] come [2064] in [1722] the glory [1391] of his [846] Father [3962] with [3326] his [846] angels [32]; and [2532] then [5119] he shall reward [591] every man [1538] according [2596] to his [846] works [4234].
