Éxodo 9:28

28 Rogad al SEÑOR, porque ha habido ya suficientes truenos y granizo de parte de Dios; y os dejaré ir y no os quedaréis más aquí.

Éxodo 9:28 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 9:28

Entreat the Lord, for it is enough
Hail, thunder, and lightning enough; or pray that this may be enough, and thought sufficient, and that there may be no more; or "entreat the Lord, and much" F12; pray, and pray much, pray earnestly and without intermission until the plague ceases: that there be no more mighty thunderings and hail;
or "voices of God" {m}; for thunder is the voice of God, and these thunderings or voices were very loud, the claps were very terrible to hear, and the hail was very grievous and heavy, and the whole was very amazing and frightful, and the more to Pharaoh, who perhaps had never heard the voice of thunder, or seen an hail storm before, even a common one, these being rare in the land of Egypt: and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer;
go the three days' journey into the wilderness, directly and immediately; he would not put it off, on any account, and much less refuse to let them go at all, as he had often done.

Éxodo 9:28 In-Context

26 Sólo en la tierra de Gosén, donde estaban los hijos de Israel, no hubo granizo.
27 Entonces Faraón envió llamar a Moisés y Aarón y les dijo: Esta vez he pecado; el SEÑOR es el justo, y yo y mi pueblo somos los impíos.
28 Rogad al SEÑOR, porque ha habido ya suficientes truenos y granizo de parte de Dios; y os dejaré ir y no os quedaréis más aquí.
29 Y Moisés le dijo: Tan pronto como yo salga de la ciudad, extenderé mis manos al SEÑOR; los truenos cesarán, y no habrá más granizo, para que sepas que la tierra es del SEÑOR.
30 En cuanto a ti y a tus siervos, sé que aún no teméis al SEÑOR Dios.
