Nehemiah 9:10 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 9:10

And shewedst signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and on all his
servants, and on all the people of his land
By inflicting the ten plagues upon them:

for thou knowest that they dealt proudly against them;
behaved haughtily to them, and despised them, see ( Exodus 18:11 )

so didst thou get thee a name, as it is this day;
displayed his power on Pharaoh, and his goodness to Israel, the fame of which reached all over the world, and continued to that day, see ( Exodus 9:16 ) .

Nehemiah 9:10 In-Context

8 You found that his heart was faithful to you. You made a promise to him to give the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Jebusites, and Girgashites to his descendants. You kept your promise because you are fair.
9 You saw how our ancestors suffered in Egypt, and you heard them crying at the Red Sea.
10 You performed miraculous signs and did amazing things to Pharaoh and all his servants and all the people in his land because you knew how arrogantly they were treating our ancestors. You made a name for yourself, a name which remains to this day.
11 You divided the sea in front of them so that they could walk through the sea on dry ground. You threw into deep water those who pursued your people as someone throws a stone into raging water.
