Exodus 8:27
As he shall command us - For he has not yet told us what sacrifices to offer.
25 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land.”
26 And Moses said, “It is not right to do so, for we would be sacrificing athe abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God. If we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, then will they not1 stone us?
27 We will go athree days’ journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the Lord our God as bHe will command us.”
28 So Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only you shall not go very far away. aIntercede for me.”
29 Then Moses said, “Indeed I am going out from you, and I will entreat the Lord, that the swarms of flies may depart tomorrow from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. But let Pharaoh not adeal deceitfully anymore in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.”
