Contextual Overview

1 Then the Lord told Moses, "Go to Pharaoh and tell him that the Lord says, ‘Let my people go to worship me! 2 If you refuse to let my people go, then I will fill Egypt with frogs. 3 The Nile River will be filled with frogs. They will come from the river and enter your houses. They will be in your bedrooms and in your beds. They will be in the houses of your officials and in your ovens and in your jars of water. 4 The frogs will be all over you, your people, and your officials.'" 5 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Tell Aaron to hold the walking stick in his hand over the canals, rivers, and lakes. Then the frogs will come out onto the land of Egypt." 6 So Aaron raised his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs began coming out of the water and covered the land of Egypt. 7 The magicians used their magic to do the same thing—so even more frogs came out onto the land in Egypt! 8 Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said, "Ask the Lord to remove the frogs from me and my people. I will let the people go to offer sacrifices to the Lord ." 9 Moses said to Pharaoh, "I will pray for you, your people, and your officials. Then the frogs will leave you and your houses. They will remain only in the river. When do you want the frogs to go away?" 10 Pharaoh said, "Tomorrow." Moses said, "It will happen as you say. In this way you will know that there is no god like the Lord our God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy servants. No doubt by the interposition of divine power and providence, and it may be by the ministry of angels; so that let them use what care, caution, and diligence they would, there was no keeping them out; but they came upon all the people of the land, high and low, rich and poor, and upon the king's ministers, courtiers, and nobles, and the king himself not excepted; though by this particular enumeration of him, his people, and servants, the children of Israel may be thought to be exempted from this plague, as R. Japhez observes; though Aben Ezra dislikes his remark, but it seems to be just.
