EXODUS—NOTE ON Exodus 7:14 Then the LORD said to Moses. This phrase introduces each plague (see Exodus 8:1, Exodus 8:16, Exodus 8:20; Exodus 9:1, Exodus 9:8, Exodus 9:13; Exodus 10:1, Exodus 10:21; Exodus 11:1). The events are governed by the word of the Lord spoken to Moses. Pharaoh’s heart is hardened. Even before the first plague, the Lord had said he would harden Pharaoh’s heart (Exodus 4:21; Exodus 7:3). Pharaoh showed the state of his heart by refusing to listen (Exodus 7:13).
