Êxodo 9:20 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 9:20

He that feared the word of the Lord among the servants of
Pharaoh
Who, if they had not the true fear of God, and were not sincere proselytes, yet had a servile fear of him, and dreaded his word, his threatening, his denunciations of judgments and predictions of future punishments; of which they had had many instances wherein they were fulfilled, and therefore had reason to fear that this also would, even the word that had been just now spoken: made his servants and cattle flee into the houses;
called home his servants, and drove his cattle in great haste out of the fields, and brought them home as fast as he could, and housed them; in which he acted the wise and prudent part, and showed a concern for his servants and his cattle, as well as believed the word of the Lord.

Êxodo 9:20 In-Context

18 Eis que amanhã, por este tempo, s farei chover saraiva tão grave qual nunca houve no Egito, desde o dia em que foi fundado até agora.

19 Agora, pois, manda recolher o teu gado e tudo o que tens no campo; porque sobre todo homem e animal que se acharem no campo, e não se recolherem � casa, cairá a saraiva, e morrerão.

20 Quem dos servos de Faraó temia a o palavra do Senhor, fez Fugir os seus servos e o seu gado para as casas;

21 mas aquele que não se importava com a palavra do Senhor, deixou os seus servos e o seu gado no campo.

22 Então disse o Senhor a Moisés: Estende a tua mão para o céu, para que caia saraiva em toda a terra do Egito, sobre os homens e sobre os animais, e sobre toda a erva do campo na terra do Egito.
