"And Jehovah said unto Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, they they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left. And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and Jehovah brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all the night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts. And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt; very grievous were they; before them there... read more

Locusts (the eighth plague) 10:1-20Moses explained another purpose of God in sending further plagues in this context, namely, so the Israelites in future generations would believe in Yahweh’s sovereignty (Exodus 10:2)Locusts were and still are a menace in Egypt as well as in many other countries of the world. The wind drove them from the wetter areas to the whole land of Egypt, excluding Goshen, where they multiplied. They consumed the remaining half of the crops and trees left by the hail.... read more

6. The seventh, eighth, and ninth plagues 9:13-10:29Moses announced the purpose of the following plagues to Pharaoh "in the morning" (cf. Exodus 7:15; Exodus 8:20). This purpose was twofold: that Pharaoh personally might know God’s power (Exodus 9:14) and that the whole world might know it (Exodus 9:16; cf. Romans 9:17). read more

The Eighth and Ninth Plagues1-20. The Eighth Plague:—Locusts.2. See on Exodus 7:4-5; 3. This question shows that Pharaoh was responsible for the hardening of his heart: see on Exodus 4:21. 4-6. Travellers are unanimous in bearing witness to the terrible ravages caused by a visitation of locusts. They fly in dense swarms, sometimes miles in length, so that the air is darkened with them. Wherever they alight they devour every green thing, not sparing the bark of trees. For a description of a... read more

(15) They covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened.—See the comment on Exodus 10:5, and compare also Clarke’s Travels in Russia, p. 445:—“The steppes were literally covered with the bodies of these insects. . . . The whole face of nature seemed to be concealed as by a living veil.”They did eat every herb of the land.—“When these animals arrive in swarms,” says Clarke, “the whole vegetable produce disappears. Nothing escapes them, from the leaves of the forest to the... read more

Exodus 10:7 If there be any one truth which the deductions of reason alone, independent of history, would lead us to anticipate, and which again history alone would establish independently of antecedent reasoning, it is this: that a whole class of men placed permanently under the ascendancy of another as subjects, without the rights of citizens, must be a source, at the best, of weakness, and generally of danger to the State. They cannot well be expected, and have rarely been found, to evince... read more

CHAPTER X.THE EIGHTH PLAGUE.Exodus 10:1-20.The Lord would not command His servant again to enter the dangerous presence of the sullen prince, without a reason which would sustain his faith: "For I have made heavy his heart." The pronoun is emphatic: it means to say, ’His foolhardiness is My doing and cannot go beyond My will: thou art safe.’ And the same encouragement belongs to all who do the sacred will: not a hair of their head shall truly perish, since life and death are the servants of... read more

CHAPTER 10 The Eighth and Ninth Plagues 1. The eighth plague: locusts (Exodus 10:1-15 ) 2. Pharaoh’s renewed confession and refusal (Exodus 10:16-20 ) 3. The ninth plague: darkness (Exodus 10:21-26 ) 4. Pharaoh’s anger (Exodus 10:27-29 ) The eighth plague is introduced by another warning; the ninth came without it.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Exodus 10:1-29
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
