This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

31.And the Lord did according to the word of Moses. “ word” here may be expounded either of the answer, or the prayer, of Moses.

When he adds that the “ of the king was hardened at this time also,” he aggravates the crime of his obstinacy, since there was no bound to his rebellion under such a series of punishments, by which even an iron heart should have been corrected.
