Contextual Overview

8 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 9 "Moses, when the king asks you to do a miracle, tell Aaron to throw his walking stick down in front of the king, and it will become a snake." 10 So Moses and Aaron went to the king as the Lord had commanded. Aaron threw his walking stick down in front of the king and his officers, and it became a snake. 11 So the king called in his wise men and his magicians, and with their tricks the Egyptian magicians were able to do the same thing. 12 They threw their walking sticks on the ground, and their sticks became snakes. But Aaron's stick swallowed theirs. 13 Still the king was stubborn and refused to listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the Lord had said.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he hardened Pharaoh's heart,.... Or, "notwithstanding the heart of Pharaoh was hardened" a; though he saw the rods of his magicians devoured by rod; or "therefore" b his heart was hardened, because he saw that the rods of his magicians became serpents as well as Aaron's; in which there was a deception of sight, and which was suffered for the hardening of his heart, there being other wonders and miracles to be wrought, for showing forth the divine power, before Israel must be let go:

that he hearkened not unto them; to Moses and Aaron, and comply with their demand, to dismiss the people of Israel:

as the Lord had said; or foretold he would not.

a ויחזק "attamen obfirmatum est", Junius & Tremellius. b "Itaque", Piscator.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And he hardened - Or Pharaoh’s heart was hardened. See Exodus 4:21.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Exodus 7:13. And he hardened Pharaoh's heart — ויחזק לב פרעה vaiyechezah leb Paroh, "And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened," the identical words which in Exodus 7:22 are thus translated, and which should have been rendered in the same way here, lest the hardening, which was evidently the effect of his own obstinate shutting of his eyes against the truth, should be attributed to God. Exodus 4:21.
