Advice to the Pharaoh, and, implicitly (cf. vv.20, 21), to his servants as well, to bring their cattle quickly into safety. The advice gives the Pharaoh an opportunity of shewing what his frame of mind is, according as he follows or disregards the advice. According to v.6 the Egyptians had indeed no -cattle" left after the murrain; but (as was remarked on v.6) -all" in Hebrew is not always to be taken literally. The inconsistency is however remarkable: contrast Exodus 10:5; Exodus 10:15.
