Exodus 10:29. I will see thy face no more Namely, after this time, for this conference did not break off till Exodus 11:8, when Moses went out in great anger, and told Pharaoh how soon his proud stomach would come down; which was fulfilled Exodus 12:31, when Pharaoh became an humble supplicant to Moses to depart. So that after this interview Moses came no more till he was sent for. read more
Nine plagues (7:14-10:29)The timing, intensity and extent of these plagues show clearly that they were sent by God. It also seems fairly clear that God used the physical characteristics of the Nile valley to produce them.When the first plague struck, it polluted all the water in the Nile and in the irrigation canals and reservoirs connected with it, resulting in all the fish dying. As the dead fish floated to the banks they would force the frogs out of the water, thereby producing the second... read more

"And Moses said, Thou must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto Jehovah our God. Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not a hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve Jehovah our God; and we know not with what we must serve Jehovah, until we come thither.

Exodus 10:29. I will see thy face again no more— That is, no more in the way of a messenger from God, or of an adviser to thee to do that which is right. And it does not appear that Moses ever came again before Pharaoh: for, as to what follows in the next chapter, Exodus 10:4; Exo 10:8 that was most probably delivered now before he left Pharaoh's presence. And, with respect to Exo 12:31 it by no means follows from thence, that Moses appeared again before Pharaoh: for, alarmed by the terrible... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 10:29
And Moses said , etc. The reply of Moses, so far, is simple and dignified. Thou hast spoken well, he says —"thou hast made a right decision—further interviews between me and thee are useless, can lead to no result, only waste time. This shall be our last interview— I will see thy face no more ." It is generally agreed however that Moses did not quit the presence with these words; but continued to address Pharaoh for some little time, making his parting speech in the terms which are... read more
