Exodus 9:25 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 9:25

And the hail smote throughout all the land of Egypt
It was in all the land, and it smote and did mischief in all parts of it, only in Goshen, after excepted: all that was in the field, both man and beast;
which they that neglected the word of the Lord took no care to fetch home, these were all smitten and destroyed by the hail: and the hail smote every herb of the field; that is, the greatest part of them, for some were left, which the locusts afterwards ate, ( Exodus 10:15 ) , and brake every tree of the field; and the vines and fig trees, ( Psalms 78:47 ) ( 105:33 ) .
