Psalms 105:38

38. Egypt was glad God had prepared Israel, by their bitter bondage, to leave Egypt without regret; and by his judgments on Egypt had made the Egyptians willing, even glad, that they should depart. Exodus 12:31-33. The Egyptian account of the affair was, according to Josephus, ( Con. App. 1: 26, 32,) that the Egyptians expelled them by force of arms on account of their leprosy, their hatred of the Egyptian gods, and their military invasion of the kingdom, and pursued them into Syria. Compare with this, for absurdity, the Pharisees’ story of the resurrection of Jesus, Matthew 28:11-15. But, contrariwise, the masses of the people took sympathy with the Israelites. Exodus 11:2-3; Exodus 12:36. See note on Psalms 105:37
