Éxodo 4:7

7 Entonces El dijo: Vuelve a meter la mano en tu seno. Y él volvió a meter la mano en su seno, y cuando la sacó de su seno, he aquí, se había vuelto como el resto de su carne.

Éxodo 4:7 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 4:7

And he said, put thine hand into thy bosom again
With the leprosy on it: and he put his hand into his bosom again, and plucked it out of his
bosom;
quickly after he had put it in: and, behold, it was turned again as his other flesh;
it was cured of the leprosy, and recovered its colour, and was as sound as before, and as any other part of his body. This was a very astonishing miracle, that he should be at once smote with a leprosy; that this should be only in his hand, and not in any other part of his body; and that it should be cured immediately, without the use of any means; and by this miracle Moses, and the Israelites, might be instructed and confirmed in the power of God, that he that could so suddenly inflict such a disease, and so easily cure it, was able to deliver them out of captivity, which was as death; and that however until Moses might be in himself to be a deliverer of the people, signified by his weak and leprous hand, yet being quickened and strengthened by the Lord, would be able to answer to the character; though, after all, the deliverance must be imputed not to his hand and power, but to the mighty hand and power of God.

Éxodo 4:7 In-Context

5 Por esto creerán que se te ha aparecido el SEÑOR, el Dios de sus padres, el Dios de Abraham, el Dios de Isaac y el Dios de Jacob.
6 Y añadió el SEÑOR: Ahora mete la mano en tu seno. Y él metió la mano en su seno, y cuando la sacó, he aquí, su mano estaba leprosa, blanca como la nieve.
7 Entonces El dijo: Vuelve a meter la mano en tu seno. Y él volvió a meter la mano en su seno, y cuando la sacó de su seno, he aquí, se había vuelto como el resto de su carne.
8 Y acontecerá que si no te creen, ni obedecen el testimonio de la primera señal, quizá crean el testimonio de la segunda señal.
9 Y sucederá que si todavía no creen estas dos señales, ni escuchan tu voz, entonces tomarás agua del Nilo y la derramarás sobre la tierra seca; y el agua que tomes del Nilo se convertirá en sangre sobre la tierra seca.
