Exodus 12:32
This is one of the most odd statements I have ever read in the Bible!
It’s odd because of who said it!
It was Pharaoh… Pharaoh who had constantly refused to let the children of Israel leave Egypt! God had brought all the plagues on him and on Egypt, the final one being the death of the first- born sons in Egypt, including his first-born son and heir! So now he finally tells the children of Israel to leave Egypt! That’s the context for what he said.
