Pharaoh complains to Moses, who by prayer removes them 16. The dust is turned into lice, which the magicians could not do 20. The plague of flies 25. Pharaoh inclines to let the people go, but yet is hardened (25) Pharaoh called for Moses.--Pharaoh suffered from the kakerlaque equally with his subjects, or rather, more than his subjects. It was "upon him," inflicting its painful bites (Exodus 8:21); it was "upon his palaces" (Exodus 8:21), destroying his rich and magnificent furniture; it was upon his lands, ravaging and devastating them (Exodus 8:24). He therefore gave way before this plague almost at once, and without waiting for any remonstrance on the part of the magicians or others, "called for Moses." In the land.--Pretending to grant the request made of him, Pharaoh mars all by this little clause. A three days' journey into the wilderness had been demanded from the first (Exodus 5:3), and no less could be accepted. Verses 25-32. - The fourth plague moves the Pharaoh more than any preceding one. He still cannot bring himself to grant the demand of Moses; but he offers a compromise. The Israelites shall have a respite from their toils, and be permitted to hold their festival, and offer the needful sacrifices in Egypt (ver. 25). When this offer is for good reasons not accepted, he yields even further - he will let the people go and sacrifice in the wilderness - only they must not "go far away"(ver. 28). Having made this promise, he obtains for the second time the intercession of Moses and the discontinuance of the plague in consequence of it. But then, as before, when he saw that there was respite (ver. 15), he retracted his promise, hardened himself, and refused to allow the people to quit Egypt (ver. 32). Verse 25. - In the land - i.e., in Egypt within the limits of my dominions, so that I may not lose sight of you - far less run the risk of losing you altogether.Parallel Commentaries ...
