Exodus 7:5 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 7:5

And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord
Jehovah, the one only true and living God; this they should know by the judgments executed upon them, and be obliged to acknowledge it:

when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt:
especially the last time, to destroy the firstborn:

and bring out the children of Israel from among them;
by which it would appear that he was mightier than they, and obtained the end for which the plagues were inflicted on them.

Exodus 7:5 In-Context

3 But I will make Pharaoh stubborn. Even though I will do many miraculous signs and amazing things in Egypt,
4 Pharaoh will not listen to you. Then I will use my power to punish Egypt severely, and I will bring my people, the Israelites, out of Egypt in organized family groups.
5 The Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I use my power against Egypt and bring the Israelites out of there."
6 Moses and Aaron did as the LORD had commanded them.
7 Moses was 80 years old and Aaron was 83 when they talked to Pharaoh.
