Contextual Overview

8 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 9 "When Pharaoh says to you, ‘Do a miracle,' and you say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,' it will become a snake." 10 When Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh, they did so, just as the Lord had commanded them—Aaron threw down his staff before Pharaoh and his servants and it became a snake. 11 Then Pharaoh also summoned wise men and sorcerers, and the magicians of Egypt by their secret arts did the same thing. 12 Each man threw down his staff, and the staffs became snakes. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs. 13 Yet Pharaoh's heart became hard, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had predicted.

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.
