Exodus 6:11 - Exposition

Out of his land . Note the advance in the demand. No longer is there any limitation to a three days' journey, as at first ( Exodus 3:18 ; Exodus 5:3 ). The children of Israel are to be let go altogether "out of the land." So generally, if God lays a light burthen upon us and we refuse it, we may expect him to exchange our light burthen for a heavier one. We had better accept the first cross he offers.
