SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:16
No se da hornija a tus siervos, y con todo eso nos dicen: Haced el ladrillo. Y he aquí tus siervos son azotados, y tu pueblo peca.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Exodus 5:16
Verse 16. The fault is in thine own people.] tafj chatath, the SIN, is in thy own people. 1st. Because they require impossibilities; and 2dly, because they punish us for not doing what cannot be performed.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-23 - The Egyptian task-masters were very severe. See what need we have to pray that we may be delivered from wicked men. The head-workmen justl complained to Pharaoh: but he taunted them. The malice of Satan ha often represented the service and worship of God, as fit employmen only for those who have nothing else to do, and the business only of the idle; whereas, it is the duty of those who are most busy in the world. Those who are diligent in doing sacrifice to the Lord, will before God, escape the doom of the slothful servant, though with me they do not. The Israelites should have humbled themselves before God and have taken to themselves the shame of their sin; but instead of that, they quarrel with those who were to be their deliverers. Mose returned to the Lord. He knew that what he had said and done, was by God's direction; and therefore appeals to him. When we find ourselve at any time perplexed in the way of our duty, we ought to go to God and lay open our case before him by fervent prayer. Disappointments in our work must not drive us from our God, but still we must ponder wh they are sent __________________________________________________________________
