Contextual Overview
1 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh and tell him, ‘Thus says the Lord : "Release my people in order that they may serve me! 2 But if you refuse to release them, then I am going to plague all your territory with frogs. 3 The Nile will swarm with frogs, and they will come up and go into your house, in your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants and your people, and into your ovens and your kneading troughs. 4 Frogs will come up against you, your people, and all your servants."'" 5 The Lord spoke to Moses, "Tell Aaron, ‘Extend your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the canals, and over the ponds, and bring the frogs up over the land of Egypt.'" 6 So Aaron extended his hand over the waters of Egypt, and frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt. 7 The magicians did the same with their secret arts and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt too. 8 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, "Pray to the Lord that he may take the frogs away from me and my people, and I will release the people that they may sacrifice to the Lord ." 9 Moses said to Pharaoh, "You may have the honor over me—when shall I pray for you, your servants, and your people, for the frogs to be removed from you and your houses, so that they will be left only in the Nile?" 10 He said, "Tomorrow." And Moses said, "It will be as you say, so that you may know that there is no one like the Lord our God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the magicians did so with their enchantments, c] By their secret wiles and juggling tricks:
and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt, that is, some few, as a proof of their art and skill, and to show that Moses and Aaron did but what they could do but what they did either were only in appearance, deceiving the sight of Pharaoh and his people, or real frogs were brought to them by the help of devils, but not in such numbers: and besides, this was adding to the plague, and not diminishing it; had they done anything to the purpose, they should have removed it at once, or destroyed the frogs; but that they could not do, of which Pharaoh being sensible, he therefore entreated for the removal of them by Moses and Aaron. To this plague there seems to be some reference at the pouring out of the sixth vial, Revelation 16:13.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The magicians would seem to have been able to increase the plague, but not to remove it; hence, Pharaoh’s application to Moses, the first symptoms of yielding.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Exodus 8:7. The magicians did so — A little juggling or dexterity of hand might have been quite sufficient for the imitation of this miracle, because frogs in abundance had already been produced; and some of these kept in readiness might have been brought forward by the magicians, as proofs of their pretended power and equality in influence to Moses and Aaron.
