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 —Realiza esta señal —le dijo el Señor
—, y ellos creerán que el Señor
, el Dios de sus antepasados, el Dios de Abraham, el Dios de Isaac y el Dios de Jacob, de veras se te apareció.

6 Luego el Señor
le dijo a Moisés:
—Ahora mete la mano dentro de tu manto.
Entonces Moisés metió la mano dentro de su manto, y cuando la sacó, la mano estaba blanca como la nieve, afectada por una grave enfermedad de la piel.

7 —Ahora vuelve a meter la mano dentro de tu manto —le dijo el Señor
.
Así que Moisés metió la mano de nuevo, y cuando la sacó, estaba tan sana como el resto de su cuerpo.

8 El Señor
le dijo a Moisés:
—Si no te creen ni se convencen con la primera señal milagrosa, se convencerán con la segunda.

9 Y si no te creen ni te escuchan aun después de estas dos señales, entonces recoge un poco de agua del río Nilo y derrámala sobre el suelo seco. En cuanto lo hagas, el agua del Nilo se convertirá en sangre sobre el suelo.
