Exodus 11:1

EXODUS CHAPTER 11 God commandeth the Israelites to borrow jewels of the Egyptians, Exodus 11:2. God giveth them favour among the Egyptians, Exodus 11:3. Moses denounceth the last plague, Exodus 11:4,5. A great cry, Exodus 11:6. The Israelites safety, Exodus 11:7. The Egyptians thrusting them out, Exodus 11:8. God foretells Pharaoh's hardness, Exodus 11:9. The Lord said unto Moses; either,

1. Whilst Moses was not yet gone out of Pharaoh's presence; so God might suggest this to his mind, as he did other things to Micaiah, when he was before Ahab and Jehoshaphat, 1Ki 22. Or rather,

2. Before his last coming to Pharaoh; and the words may be rendered thus, Now the Lord had said unto Moses. And this is here added as the reason why Moses spake so boldly to Pharaoh, because God had assured him of a good issue. He shall surely thrust you out hence altogether; men, and women, and children, and cattle, and all that they had, which he would never do before.
