Exodus 10:17 - John Wesley's Notes

Exodus 10:17

15 For they ^acovered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they ^bate every herb of the land and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. So there remained nothing green on the trees or on the plants of the field throughout all the land of Egypt.

16 Then Pharaoh called ^afor Moses and Aaron in haste, and said, ^b“I have sinned against the Lord your God and against you.

17 Now therefore, please forgive my sin only this once, and ^aentreat the Lord your God, that He may take away from me this death only.”

18 So he ^awent out from Pharaoh and entreated the Lord.

19 And the Lord turned a very strong west wind, which took the locusts away and blew them ^ainto the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the territory of Egypt.

Exodus 10:17

Pharaoh desires their prayers that this death only might be taken away, not this sin: he deprecates the plague of locusts, not the plague of a hard heart.
