Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 7:1-25

Exodus 7:1. I have made thee a god. אלהים Elohim. The Chaldaic renders it תחי ליה לרב Thou shalt be to him for a prince. The divine sense of the word is, I have invested thee with Godlike powers to save and to destroy; yea, in the ten plagues about to follow, to move nature at thy command.

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 7:1-7

RESUMPTION OF THE NARRATIVE AND RECAPITULATION, Exodus 6:28 to Exodus 7:7.
