In this dialogue, Moses is making it clear to Pharaoh that the Israelites' departure from Egypt is not just a temporary leave for a select few, but a significant event involving the entire community. By insisting that everyone, from the youngest to the oldest, along with all their livestock, must go, Moses emphasizes the communal nature of worship and the importance of family and community in spiritual practices. This insistence on including everyone underscores the idea that faith and worship are collective experiences that bind the community together. It also reflects the Israelites' understanding of their identity and purpose as a people chosen by God to worship and serve Him. The mention of celebrating a festival to the Lord indicates a joyful and solemn occasion, highlighting the significance of religious festivals in maintaining faith and cultural identity. This passage reminds us of the importance of involving all generations in spiritual practices and the role of community in nurturing and sustaining faith.
Moses answered, “We will go with our young and old, with our sons and daughters, and with our flocks and herds, because we are to celebrate a festival to the Lord.”
