Exodus 9:26 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 9:26

Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel
[were], was there no hail.
] So that such Egyptians as might dwell among them, they, their servants, their cattle, and their fruits, escaped this plague; and oftentimes do wicked men fare the better for the people of God that are among them.

Exodus 9:26 In-Context

24 there was hail with fire flashing continually in the midst of it, such heavy hail as had never fallen in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.

25 The hail struck down everything that was in the open field throughout all the land of Egypt, both human and animal; the hail also struck down all the plants of the field, and shattered every tree in the field.

26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the Israelites were, there was no hail.

27 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron, and said to them, "This time I have sinned; the Lord is in the right, and I and my people are in the wrong.

28 Pray to the Lord! Enough of God's thunder and hail! I will let you go; you need stay no longer."
