Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Moses took his wife, and his sons,.... Gershom and Eliezer; by which it appears that he intended to stay in Egypt, and that he believed that God would work deliverance by him:
and set them upon an ass: which though with us a mean creature, yet in those times and countries were rode upon by great personages; and these, as Aben Ezra says, were reckoned in Egypt more honourable than mules. It may be the singular is put for the plural, and that each of them was set upon an ass, with servants to take care of them:
and he returned to the land of Egypt; that is, he set forward to go thither; for before he got thither, various things are related which befell him:
and Moses took the rod of God in his hand: his shepherd's staff, so called, because God ordered him to take it; and besides, he had wrought signs and wonders by it already, and would do many more.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
An ass - Literally, âthe ass,â which, according to Hebrew idiom, means that he set them upon asses. This is the first notice of other sons besides Gershom.
The rod of God - The staff of Moses was consecrated by the miracle Exodus 4:2 and became âthe rod of God.â
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Exodus 4:20. His wife and his sons — Both Gershom and Eliezer, though the birth of the latter has not yet been mentioned in the Hebrew text. Exodus 2:22.
Set them upon an ass — The Septuagint reads the word in the plural, εκι Ïα Ï ÌÏÎ¿Î¶Ï Î³Î¹Î±, upon asses, as it certainly required more than one to carry Zipporah, Gershom, and Eliezer.
The rod of God — The sign of sovereign power, by which he was to perform all his miracles; once the badge of his shepherd's office, and now that by which he is to feed, rule, and protect his people Israel.
