F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Exodus 8:1-15

the Plague of Frogs and its Removal Exodus 8:1-15 Probably the plagues followed in rapid succession, so that the impression of one had not passed away before another succeeded. The whole conflict was probably comprehended in nine or ten months. The frog was a goddess, hence the plague was aggravated, as it was unlawful to destroy one. This stroke elicited the first symptom of surrender. Though the magicians counterfeited the coming of the frogs they failed to remove them, and the king did... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Exodus 8:1-32

Before the second plague Pharaoh received an opportunity to repent. He was warned of the approach of the plague. The warning had no effect. In the first plague magicians had produced apparently like results and it was so also with this second one. This was their last success. Pharaoh relented and asked for a respite. This was granted and for a reason clearly declared, "That thou mayest how that there is none like unto Jehovah our God." At any sign of turning by Pharaoh the divine mercy turned... read more

During that time another Pharaoh had arisen who knew not Joseph. As the sons of Jacob multiplied, the king of Egypt became more and more afraid of their possible ascendancy in his empire. Therefore, moved with fear, he began to persecute them, and to... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 8:1-15

The Second Plague - The Plague of Frogs (Exodus 8:1-15 ). This can be analysed as follows: a Yahweh tells Moses to say, ‘let my people go and serve me’ or there will be a plague of frogs (Exodus 8:1-2). b Full description of the plague of frogs that will come (Exodus 8:3-4). c Aaron to be commanded to stretch out his staff over the waters of Egypt to cause the frogs to come up (Exodus 8:5). d Aaron does so and the plague of frogs come out and spread over Egypt (Exodus 8:6). e The... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Exodus 8:12

Or, as the place is fitly rendered by others, because of the word, or matter of, or about the frogs which he had given or propounded to Pharaoh. Because he had given his word both for the thing and the time of it, he prayed more earnestly lest God should be dishonoured, and Pharaoh have occasion of triumph. The Hebrew verbs to put and to give are frequently exchanged, as appears by comparing 1 Kings 10:9, with 2 Chronicles 9:8; and Isaiah 42:1, with Matthew 12:18. Moses cried unto the Lord:... read more

Chapter 8The Lord spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Let my people go, that they may serve me. [So the third demand now, actually the fourth demand.] And if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all of your borders with frogs ( Exodus 8:1-2 ):Now of course the Egyptians worshiped the snakes; and thus, when his rod turned into a serpent, they couldn't kill it because they worshiped snakes. They also worshiped the Nile river as one of their gods,... read more
