Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

three days': Exodus 3:18, Exodus 5:1

as he shall: Exodus 3:12, Exodus 10:26, Exodus 34:11, Leviticus 10:1, Matthew 28:20

Gill's Notes on the Bible

We will go three days' journey into the wilderness,.... As was first insisted on, and from which demand they should not depart:

and sacrifice unto the Lord our God, as he shall command us; both what sacrifices shall be offered, and the manner in which they shall be done, both which seemed for the present in a good measure undetermined and unknown; and therefore it was possible, and very probable, that in one or the other they should give offence to the Egyptians, should they sacrifice among them, being at all events resolved to do as the Lord should command them.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Three days’ journey - See the Exodus 3:18 note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Exodus 8:27. And sacrifice to the Lord - as he shall command us. — It is very likely that neither Moses nor Aaron knew as yet in what manner God would be worshipped; and they expected to receive a direct revelation from him relative to this subject, when they should come into the wilderness.
