Exodus 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.

Exodus 4:7 In-Context

5 Opdat zij geloven, dat u verschenen is de HEERE, de God hunner vaderen, de God van Abraham, de God van Izak, en de God van Jakob.
6 En de HEERE zeide verder tot hem: Steek nu uw hand in uw boezem. En hij stak zijn hand in zijn boezem; daarna trok hij ze uit, en ziet, zijn hand was melaats, wit als sneeuw.
7 En Hij zeide: Steek uw hand wederom in uw boezem. En hij stak zijn hand wederom in zijn boezem; daarna trok hij ze uit zijn boezem, en ziet, zij was weder als zijn ander vlees.
8 En het zal geschieden, zo zij u niet geloven, noch naar de stem van het eerste teken horen, zo zullen zij de stem van het laatste teken geloven.
9 En het zal geschieden, zo zij ook deze twee tekenen niet geloven, noch naar uw stem horen, zo neem van de wateren der rivier, en giet ze op het droge; zo zullen de wateren, die gij uit de rivier zult nemen, diezelve zullen tot bloed worden op het droge.
