Psalms 78:43 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 78:43

How he had wrought his signs in Egypt
The plagues which he brought upon the Egyptians, for refusing to let Israel go:

and his wonders in the field of Zoan,
or in the country of Zoan, that is, Tanis, as the Targum renders it; so the Septuagint and Vulgate Latin versions; see ( Psalms 78:12 ) , an enumeration of these signs and wonders follows; but not of all, nor in the order in which they were: only seven are mentioned, with which compare the seven vials or last plagues, ( Revelation 6:1 ) .

Psalms 78:43 In-Context

41 Time and again they pushed him to the limit, provoked Israel's Holy God.
42 How quickly they forgot what he'd done, forgot their day of rescue from the enemy,
43 When he did miracles in Egypt, wonders on the plain of Zoan.
44 He turned the River and its streams to blood - not a drop of water fit to drink.
45 He sent flies, which ate them alive, and frogs, which bedeviled them.
