Êxodo 9

Êxodo 9

Pink - Witness God’s absolute (and sovereign) control of inanimate matter in connection with the plagues upon Egypt. At His bidding the light was turned into darkness and rivers into blood; hail fell, and death came down upon the godless land of the Nile, until even its haughty monarch was compelled to cry out for deliverance. Note particularly how the inspired record here emphasizes God’s absolute control over the elements—‘And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along upon the ground; and the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt.’ "The voice of the LORD is upon the waters; The God of glory thunders, The LORD is over many waters." "The LORD also thundered in the heavens, And the Most High uttered His voice, Hailstones and coals of fire."
