See note on [Exodus 5:1](../../../kjv/exodus/5/1) . **We will go with our young** , &c. Moses knew nothing *of* forsaking Egypt and leaving the little ones behind.

Note the spiritual lesson. Not until we leave the world can we have a true conception of Jehovah's requirements: "if any man do His will he shall know of the doctrine" ([John 7:17](../../../kjv/john/7/17) ). **hardened** . See on [Exodus 4:21](../../../kjv/exodus/4/21) . **Get thee from me** . Eleven kings and rulers thus offended. [Exodus 10:28](../../../kjv/exodus/10/28) .
