Contextual Overview

40How often do they provoke Him in the wilderness, || Grieve Him in the desolate place? 41Indeed, they turn back, and try God, || And have limited the Holy One of Israel. 42They have not remembered His hand || The day He ransomed them from the adversary. 43When He set His signs in Egypt, || And His wonders in the field of Zoan,44And He turns their streams to blood, || And they do not drink their floods. 45He sends among them the beetle, and it consumes them, || And the frog, and it destroys them, 46And gives their increase to the caterpillar, || And their labor to the locust. 47He destroys their vine with hail, || And their sycamores with frost, 48And delivers their beasts up to the hail, || And their livestock to the burning flames. 49He sends on them the fury of His anger, || Wrath, and indignation, and distress—A discharge of evil messengers.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

How he had wrought his signs in Egypt,.... The plagues which he brought upon the Egyptians, for refusing to let Israel go:

and his wonders in the field of Zoan, or in the country of Zoan, that is, Tanis, as the Targum renders it; so the Septuagint and Vulgate Latin versions; see Psalms 78:12, an enumeration of these signs and wonders follows; but not of all, nor in the order in which they were: only seven are mentioned, with which compare the seven vials or last plagues, Revelation 6:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

How he had wrought his signs in Egypt - Margin, set. The Hebrew word means to set or place. The word signs here refers to miracles as signs or indications of God’s power and favor. The things which he did were of such a nature as to show that he was almighty, and at the same time to assure them of his disposition to protect them.

And his wonders in the field of Zoan - The wonderful things which he did; the things suited to excite amazement, or astonishment. On the word Zoan, see the notes at Psalms 78:12.
