Footnotes

  1. 74 This is the obligatory imperfect nuance. They were obliged to take the animals if they were going to sacrifice, but more than that, since they were not coming back, they had to take everything.
  2. 75 The same modal nuance applies to this verb.
  3. 76 Heb “from it,” referring collectively to the livestock.
  4. 77 Moses gives an angry but firm reply to Pharaoh’s attempt to control Israel; he makes it clear that he has no intention of leaving any pledge with Pharaoh. When they leave, they will take everything that belongs to them.
