Exode 8:32 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 8:32

And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also
As he did before, when he found the plague was removed, and the flies were gone: neither would he let the people go;
through pride and covetousness, being loath to have the number of those under his dominion so much diminished, and to lose so large a branch of his revenues arising from the labour of these people.

Exode 8:32 In-Context

30 Alors Moïse sortit d'auprès de Pharaon, et intercéda auprès de l'Éternel.
31 Et l'Éternel fit selon la parole de Moïse, et les insectes s'éloignèrent de Pharaon, de ses serviteurs, et de son peuple; il n'en resta pas un seul.
32 Mais Pharaon appesantit son cœur encore cette fois, et ne laissa point aller le peuple.
