Exodus
Chapter 9
1
Then Jehovah/God said unto Moses,
"Go
in unto Pharaoh, and tell him,
'Thus
said Jehovah/God . . .
'Elohiym/Godhead
of the Hebrews,
Let
My people go . . . that they may serve Me.' 2
For
if you refuse to let them go,
and
will hold them still, 3
behold,
the hand of Jehovah/God
is
upon your cattle which are in the field,
upon
the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels,
upon
the oxen, and upon the sheep.
There shall be a very grievous murrain/'cattle-plague'.
4
And Jehovah/God shall sever/'mark out'/separate
between
the cattle of Israel
and
the cattle of Egypt.
And there shall nothing die of all who is the children's of Israel.
5
And Jehovah/God appointed a set time, saying,
"Tomorrow
Jehovah/God shall do this thing in the land."
6
And Jehovah/God did that thing on the morrow,
and
all the cattle of Egypt died.
But of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one.
7
And Pharaoh sent, and, behold,
there
was not one of the cattle of the Israelites dead.
However,
the heart of Pharaoh was hardened,
and
he did not let the people go.
8
And Jehovah/God said unto Moses and unto Aaron,
"Take
to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace,
and
let Moses sprinkle it toward the heaven
in
the sight of Pharaoh. 9
And
it shall become 'clouds of particles'/'small dust'
in
all the land of Egypt,
and
shall be a boil/'inflamed spot {like leprosy}
breaking
forth with blisters/boils upon man,
and
upon animal/beast,
throughout
all the land of Egypt."
10
And they took ashes of the furnace,
and
stood before Pharaoh.
And Moses sprinkled it up toward heaven.
And
it became a boil/'inflamed spot {like leprosy}
breaking
forth with blisters/boils upon man
upon
man, and upon animal/beast.
11
And the magicians could not stand before Moses
because
of the boils . . .
for
the boil was upon the magicians,
and
upon all the Egyptians.
12~~And
Jehovah/God caused the hardening
of
the heart of Pharaoh,
and
he {Pharaoh Amenhotep II} did not listen to them;
just
as Jehovah/God predicted to Moses.
{Note: First time this occurred. Pharaoh has been negative on his own the first six times. That was it. Now scar tissue has been completed and he should be taken out under the sin unto death. But, 'Elohiym/Godhead tells us He kept Pharaoh alive for HIS own purpose - to be an example to others.}
13-14~~Then
Jehovah/God said unto Moses,
"Rise
up early in the morning,
and
stand before Pharaoh,
and
say unto him,
Thus
decrees Jehovah/God . . .
'Elohiym/Godhead
of the Hebrews,
Let
My people go,
that
they may serve Me . . . 14~~
for
this time I will send all My plagues
to
your heart/'right lobe of your mentality',
both
upon your servants and upon your people
that
you may know
that
there is no one like Me in all the earth."
{The
'Probable' - Not Recorded in Divine Decrees - only in God's Omniscience}
{An
Alternative 'Elohiym/Godhead Could Have Used Again Pharaoh But Did Not}
15~~"For
if by now
I
have put forth My hand {anthropomorphism}
and
struck you down and your people with disease,
you
would then have been cut off from the earth."
{The
Actual - Found in the Divine Decrees}
{This
is in a Pause Between the Sixth and Seventh Plagues}
16~~"But,
on the contrary,
{God did not destroy the Pharaoh and his people}
for
this purpose
'I
{God} have established you'/
'I
have permitted you to continue in history',
in
order that I might
'show
you'/'cause you to see'/'demonstrate to you'
My
power . . .
in
order that My Reputation/Name/Person {shem}
may
be engraved/written {celebrated} {caphar}
throughout
all the earth."
{Note: Paul quoted this verse in Romans 9:17. This is Pharaoh Amenhotep II - son of Thutmose III. Amenhotep was maybe the most stubborn man who ever lived. He absolutely refused to believe. A whole generation positive at God's consciousness became believers - including Rahab the prostitute in Jericho (Joshua 2:10-11).}
17
"As yet you exalt you yourself against My people,
that
you will not let them go? 18
Behold,
tomorrow about this time
I
will cause it to rain a very grievous hail,
such
as has not been in Egypt
since
the foundation thereof even until now. 19
Send
therefore now,
and
gather your cattle,
and
all who you have in the field . . .
for
upon every man and animal/beast
which
shall be found in the field,
and
shall not be brought home,
the
hail shall come down upon them,
and
they shall die."
20
He who respected/feared the Word of Jehovah/God
among
the servants of Pharaoh
made
his servants and his cattle flee into the houses.
21
And he who respected/regarded not the Word of Jehovah/God
left
his servants and his cattle in the field.
22
And Jehovah/God said unto Moses,
"Stretch
forth your hand toward heaven,
that
there may be hail in all the land of Egypt,
upon
man, and upon animal/beast,
and
upon every herb of the field,
throughout
the land of Egypt.
23 And Moses stretched forth his staff/rod toward heaven.
And
Jehovah/God sent thunder and hail,
and
the fire ran along upon the ground.
And Jehovah/God rained hail upon the land of Egypt.
24
So there was hail,
and
fire mingled with the hail,
very
grievous,
such
as there was none like it in all the land of Egypt
since
it became a nation.
25
And the hail smote throughout all the land of Egypt
all
who was in the field,
both
man and animal/beast;
and
the hail smote every herb of the field,
and
broke every tree of the field.
26
Only in the land of Goshen,
where
the children of Israel were,
was
there no hail.
27a
And Pharaoh sent,
and
called for Moses and Aaron,
and
said unto them,
"I
have sinned this time."
{Note: This looks very much like rebound - I John 1:9. But, rebound is only for believers. The issue for the Pharaoh was not rebound but salvation - do you believe? And he did not have faith in God so this is meaningless.}
27b
"Jehovah/God is righteous,
and
I and My people are wicked. 28
Pray/Entreat
Jehovah/God (for it is enough)
that
there be no more mighty thunderings and hail
and
I will let you go,
and
you shall stay no longer."
29
And Moses said unto him,
"As
soon as I have gone out of the city,
I
will spread abroad my hands unto Jehovah/God
and
the thunder shall cease,
neither
shall there be any more hail . . .
that
you may know how that the earth is Jehovah/God's. 30
But
as for you and your servants,
I
know that you will not yet respect/fear Jehovah/God . . .
'Elohiym/Godhead.
31
And the flax and the barley was smitten
for
the barley was in the ear,
and
the flax was budded/bolled.
32
But the wheat and the rie {a wheat like crop}
were
not smitten
for
they were not grown up.
33
And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh,
and
spread abroad his hands unto Jehovah/God
and
the thunders and hail ceased,
and
the rain was not poured upon the earth.
34
And when Pharaoh saw
that
the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased,
he
sinned yet more,
and
hardened his heart,
he
and his servants.
35
And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened,
neither
would he let the children of Israel go . . .
as
Jehovah/God had spoken by Moses.
