AMPLIFIED 2015 | Exodus 8:10 ¶ Then Pharaoh said, "Tomorrow." Moses replied, "May it be as you say, so that you may know [without any doubt] and acknowledge that there is no one like the LORD our God. |
Bible Question: Why did Pharoah say "Tomorrow" to get rid of the frogs? Why not today? I have some ideas to do with Pharoah trying to save face as a leader. In this manner He would have been able to tell the people that the Frogs would leave tomorrow and in so doing the people of Egypt would think that Pharoah was in control. But I have no real evidence, just human nature to fall on. |
Bible Answer: As I have read, more than likely because he had hoped the situation would resolve itself, that the frogs would go away on their own, thereby relieving himself of being obliged to God or Moses in any way. WOS |
