i.e. According to their numerous families, which were equal to great armies, and which went out of Egypt like several armies in military order, and with great power. See Exodus 12:41,Exodus 12:51; Exodus 13:18; Exodus 14:8. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Exodus 6:1-8

CRITICAL NOTES.—Exodus 6:1-4. Then the Lord] We can scarcely err in saying that this verse should go with chap 5; and, as furnishing the immediate answer of Jehovah to the complaint of Moses, it brings the narrative to a resting place. Exodus 6:2 begins a new section. 2 By my name Jehovah was I not known to them] We here come upon what appears to be a grave difficulty. It does not at once approve itself to our minds as consistent with fact to say that the fathers of the Hebrew people were not... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Exodus 6:9

MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Exodus 6:9PHYSICAL DESTITUTION STIFLING SPIRITUAL LIFEThis fact has long since passed away; but its lesson remains ever new. Its body is dead, and has returned to the dust; but its spirit survives immortal. God gave it a body in the actual history of the Hebrews that its meaning might become articulate to human ears. A permanent principle of our nature, and a distinctive feature of the Divine government are here embodied in an example.I. The Fact which embodies... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Exodus 6:10-13

MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Exodus 6:10-13THE SUCCESSIVE SERVICES OF THE CHRISTIAN LIFEI. That the successive services of the Christian life are required notwithstanding the apparent failure of past efforts. (Exodus 6:10-11.) Moses and Aaron had so far failed to induce Pharaoh to release Israel. But the service did not terminate here. The commission of Moses is again renewed. Failure never does remove men from the obligation of a divinely-imposed task, but must only be regarded as an... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Exodus 6:14-30

CRITICAL NOTES.—Exodus 6:14. The heads of their fathers’ houses] It is obvious that Exodus 6:13-30 form a distinct section: indeed Exodus 6:30 resumes the very words of Exodus 6:13. The interjected portion might seem to interrupt the flow of the narrative; but on closer examination the conclusion that it could ill be spared is easily arrived at, since the genealogy given relates directly to the leading actors who are coming on the scene. The houses of Reuben and Simeon are given for the sake of... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Exodus 6:8

Exodus 6:8 Consider the meaning of our duty to God; the great truth that we have such a duty; and how it comes about that we have it. I. Duty is something which is due from one to another; something which ought to be given, or ought to be done; not a thing which is given or done under compulsion, under the influence of fear, extorted by force, not even a free gift or offering; quite different from this; if a thing is a duty, it must be done because it is right to do it and wrong to omit it. II.... read more

Charles Simeon's Horae Homileticae - Exodus 6:9

DISCOURSE: 69THE DESPONDENCY OF ISRAELExodus 6:9. And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses, for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.“AS face answers to face in a glass, so does the heart of man to man.” We are apt, indeed, to imagine that the Jews were a people of more than ordinary depravity: but it is found that mankind almost universally act precisely as they did, under similar circumstances. We have here a remarkable instance of despondency. The... read more

Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - Exodus 6:9

To the Saddest of the Sad June 3rd, 1888 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage." Exodus 6:9 . Little words often contain great meanings. It is often the case with that monosyllable "so." In the present instance we must lay stress upon it and read the text thus "Moses spake so unto the children of Israel." That is, he said what God told him to say. He did not invent his... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Exodus 6:1-30

Chapter five of the book of Exodus, we left Moses in great despair. He did what he thought God was calling him to do. He went to the Pharaoh and demanded the release of the children of Israel. But the Pharaoh, rather than releasing them, only increased the burdens and the severity of their slavery.Until the children of Israel started really getting on Moses' case saying, "Why didn't you leave us alone? We were much better off before you ever came. Now since you've come, things are really hard... read more
