EXODUS CHAPTER 11
God commandeth the Israelites to borrow jewels of the Egyptians, Exo_11:2. God giveth them favour among the Egyptians, Exo_11:3. Moses denounceth the last plague, Exo_11:4,5. A great cry, Exo_11:6. The Israelites’ safety, Exo_11:7. The Egyptians thrusting them out, Exo_11:8. God foretells Pharaoh’s hardness, Exo_11:9.
The Lord said unto Moses; either,
1. Whilst Moses was not yet gone out of Pharaoh’s presence; so God might suggest this to his mind, as he did other things to Micaiah, when he was before Ahab and Jehoshaphat, 1Ki 22. Or rather,
2. Before his last coming to Pharaoh; and the words may be rendered thus, Now the Lord had said unto Moses. And this is here added as the reason why Moses spake so boldly to Pharaoh, because God had assured him of a good issue.
He shall surely thrust you out hence altogether; men, and women, and children, and cattle, and all that they had, which he would never do before.
