Exodus 11:8

Exodus 11:8

6 ^aThen there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, ^bsuch as was not like it before, nor shall be like it again.

7 ^aBut against none of the children of Israel ^bshall a dog move its tongue, against man or beast, that you may know that the Lord does make a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.’

8 And ^aall these your servants shall come down to me and bow down to me, saying, ‘Get out, and all the people who follow you!’ After that I will go out.” ^bThen he went out from Pharaoh in great anger.

9 But the Lord said to Moses, ^a“Pharaoh will not heed you, so that ^bMy wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”

10 So Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh; ^aand the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go out of his land.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Exodus 11:7

Exodus 11:9 >>

All these thy servants - Thy courtiers and great officers: The people that follow thee - That are under thy conduct: and command. When Moses had thus delivered his message, he went out from Pharaoh in great anger, though he was the meekest of all the men of the earth. Probably he expected that the very threatening of the death of the first - born should have wrought upon Pharaoh to comply; especially he having complied so far already, and having seen how exactly all Moses's predictions were fulfilled. But it had not that effect; his proud heart would not yield, no not to save all the first - born of his kingdom. Moses hereupon was provoked to a holy indignation, being grieved, as our Saviour afterwards, for the hardness of his heart, Mark 3:5.
