Contextual Overview
1 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh and tell him, ‘Thus says the Lord , the God of the Hebrews, "Release my people that they may serve me! 2 For if you refuse to release them and continue holding them, 3 then the hand of the Lord will surely bring a very terrible plague on your livestock in the field, on the horses, the donkeys, the camels, the herds, and the flocks. 4 But the Lord will distinguish between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, and nothing will die of all that the Israelites have."'" 5 The Lord set an appointed time, saying, "Tomorrow the Lord will do this in the land." 6 And the Lord did this on the next day; all the livestock of the Egyptians died, but of the Israelites' livestock not one died. 7 Pharaoh sent representatives to investigate, and indeed, not even one of the livestock of Israel had died. But Pharaoh's heart remained hard, and he did not release the people.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Lord shall sever between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt,.... Make such a difference and distinction between them, that the murrain should not be on the one, when it was on the other, and which was a very marvellous thing; and especially in the land of Goshen, where the Egyptians had much cattle, and Pharaoh himself, see Genesis 47:6 and yet, though the cattle of Israel breathed in the same air, drank of the same water, and fed in the same pastures, they had not the murrain as the cattle of Egypt had; and the word here used signifies a marvellous separation, as has been observed on Exodus 7:22:
and there shall nothing die of all that is the children's of Israel; not an horse, nor an ass, nor an ox, nor a sheep.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Exodus 9:4. The Lord shall sever — Exodus 8:22; Exodus 8:22.
