Exodus 4:26-31 ESV

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Exodus 4:1-31

A further difficulty was now declared. The man who first doubted himself and then doubted because of his ignorance of God now doubted because of the people to whom he was to be sent. God had told him that the people would hearken, but now he questioned this. All fear of man is evidence of feeble faith in God. In the presence of such fear what we need is clearer vision of God. The story shows that God understood and answered the fear of His servant by granting him signs. Then is revealed the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 4:21-26

The Three Sons (Exodus 4:21-26 ). This section could be described as being at the heart of the book of Exodus, for it deals with three attitudes that lie at the heart of God’s dealings with the world: His dealings with Israel, His dealings with Pharaoh and His dealings with each individual who is to serve Him. It takes up three aspects of sonship and faces us all up with a choice, for each of us must decide whose sons we will be. And the passage centralises on Yahweh’s attitude towards these... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 4:27-31

The Commencement of The Contest Between Yahweh and Pharaoh In Egypt (Exodus 4:27 to Exodus 7:13 ). Moses now meets up with Aaron and they go to Egypt to demand the release of Israel so that they may go into the wilderness and worship Yahweh. Pharaoh refuses their request and responds viciously. a On arriving in Egypt Moses and Aaron perform their signs before the elders and begin their task in preparation for approaching Pharaoh (Exodus 4:27-31). b They approach Pharaoh who turns on the... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 4:24-26

Exodus 4:24-Ezekiel : J. Moses Threatened with Death Decause Uncircumcised.— This is an old and strange “ boulder” of tradition. The incident here follows Exodus 4:20 a. It appears to relate in strongly anthropomorphic phrase a grave illness which Moses’ s wife interpreted as a punishment for neglect of the rite of circumcision, and remedied by symbolically substituting the circumcision of his son. The rite appears here as one preliminary to marriage, and not in the milder form of Genesis... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 4:27-31

Exodus 4:27 f. E. Exodus 4:29-Obadiah : J. Aaron meets Moses, and together they meet the elders of Israel. Exodus 4:27 f. E, which tells of Aaron sbeing called to meet Moses at Horeb, is independent of Exodus 4:14-Nehemiah : J, for it ignores the part there assigned to Aaron, whereas Exodus 4:29-Obadiah : J is the obvious sequel of that passage, though the Heb. rather suggests that even in this passage Aaron was not originally mentioned. In Exodus 4:30 a read, “ And he (Moses) did the... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Exodus 4:26

So he let him go; or, he, i.e. God, or the destroying angel sent from God, departed from him, i.e. from Moses, and removed the tokens of God’s indignation, the sickness or stroke laid upon him. Zipporah both repeats and amplifies her former censure, and reproacheth not only her husband, but also God’s ordinance; which perverse and obstinate spirit her husband observing in her, and wisely forecasting how much disturbance she might give him in his great and difficult work in Egypt, he thought fit... read more

Thus beginning to execute the office which God had put upon him, which was to be Moses’s mouth, or spokesman. i.e. Aaron did the signs as Moses’s minister, or by the command and direction of Moses. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Exodus 4:24-26

CRITICAL NOTES.—Exodus 4:25. A bloody husband.] An unfortunate rendering, bearing an opprobrious tone foreign to the Hebrew which is more exactly (with Benisch, Keil. Young, and others), “A bridegroom of blood,” or “blood-bridegroom,” “art thou to me.” Coupling the expressive Hebrew plural “bloods” with the circumstances of the case, we might perhaps render the original, “A spouse by bloody rites art thou to me.” As Kurtz well puts it: “Moses had been as good as taken from her by the deadly... read more
