7 And Pharaoh's bondmen said to him, How long shall this man be a snare to us? let the men go, that they may serve Jehovah their God: dost thou not yet know that Egypt is ruined?

7658. 'Go, serve Jehovah your God' means that they will be left alone in order that they may worship the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'serving Jehovah' as worshipping the Lord, as in 7500, 7540, 7641, 7654. The fact that 'go' or 'go away', when said by Pharaoh to Moses regarding the children of Israel, means that they are to be left alone, is self-evident.
