10 E eles tomaram cinza do forno, e apresentaram-se diante de Faraó; e Moisés a espalhou para o céu, e ela se tomou em tumores que arrebentavam em úlceras nos homens e no gado.

Êxodo 9:10 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 9:10

And they took ashes of the furnace
Which was near at hand, perhaps in Pharaoh's kitchen: and stood before Pharaoh;
not in his palace, or in any covered room, but in some place open to the heaven, a courtyard or garden adjoining to the palace: and Moses sprinkled it up towards heaven; cast it up in the air; this being again ascribed to Moses, seems to confirm the notion of those who think he only did it; but, for the reasons before given, both may be thought to be concerned: and it became a boil breaking forth with blains, upon man, and upon
beast;
these failing down in the manner before described, on whomsoever they lighted, whether man or beast, produced sore boils and inflammations, and raised blisters and blotches; and hence arose those lying scandalous stories of the Israelites being a scabby people, and of their being driven out of Egypt on that account, affirmed by Manetho, Lysimachus, Diodorus Siculus, Tacitus, Justin, and others; (See Gill on Exodus 4:6) with this plague the first vial poured forth on mystical Egypt, or antichrist, has some agreement, ( Revelation 16:2 ) .

Êxodo 9:10 In-Context

8 Então disse o Senhor a Moisés e a Arão: Tomai mancheias de cinza do forno, e Moisés a espalhe para o céu diante dos olhos de Faraó;

9 e ela se tornará em pó fino sobre toda a terra do Egito, e haverá tumores que arrebentarão em úlceras nos homens e no gado, por toda a terra do Egito.

10 E eles tomaram cinza do forno, e apresentaram-se diante de Faraó; e Moisés a espalhou para o céu, e ela se tomou em tumores que arrebentavam em úlceras nos homens e no gado.

11 Os magos não podiam manter-se diante de Moisés, por causa dos tumores; porque havia tumores nos magos, e em todos os egípcios.

12 Mas o Senhor endureceu o coração de Faraó, e este não os ouviu, como o Senhor tinha dito a Moisés.
