Moses is portrayed as a prophet and leader chosen by God to deliver the Israelites from bondage. This divine communication underscores the authority and authenticity of Moses' mission. It also reflects the intimate relationship between God and Moses, as seen throughout the Pentateuch.I will bring upon Pharaoh and Egypt one more plague The term "plague" refers to a series of divine judgments that God inflicted upon Egypt to compel Pharaoh to release the Israelites. This final plague, the death of the firstborn, is the culmination of God's judgments and is significant in its severity and impact. It demonstrates God's power over life and death and serves as a direct challenge to the Egyptian pantheon, particularly against the supposed divine status of Pharaoh himself. The plagues collectively reveal God's sovereignty and justice.After that, he will allow you to leave this place This statement is a prophecy of the impending liberation of the Israelites. It highlights God's foreknowledge and control over the events that will unfold. The phrase "this place" refers to Egypt, where the Israelites have been enslaved for centuries. The promise of leaving signifies the fulfillment of God's covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to bring their descendants to the Promised Land.And when he lets you go, he will drive you out completely The phrase indicates not only permission to leave but an urgent expulsion. Pharaoh's eventual decision to drive the Israelites out reflects the overwhelming impact of the final plague. This expulsion is a reversal of the previous refusals and hardening of Pharaoh's heart. It also symbolizes the complete and total deliverance that God provides, prefiguring the ultimate deliverance from sin through Jesus Christ. The urgency and completeness of the departure foreshadow the decisive nature of God's salvation.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a> The covenant-keeping God of Israel, who is orchestrating the deliverance of His people from Egypt. 2. <a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a> The chosen leader and prophet of Israel, who is receiving direct instructions from God to lead the Israelites out of bondage. 3. <a href="/topical/p/pharaoh.htm">Pharaoh</a> The ruler of Egypt, whose heart has been hardened against letting the Israelites go, despite witnessing previous plagues. 4. <a href="/topical/e/egypt.htm">Egypt</a> The land where the Israelites are enslaved, and the setting for the plagues that demonstrate God's power and judgment. 5. <a href="/topical/t/the_plague.htm">The Plague</a> The final and decisive act of judgment that God will bring upon Egypt, leading to the liberation of the Israelites.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/g/god's_sovereignty_and_timing.htm">God's Sovereignty and Timing</a> God's plan unfolds according to His perfect timing.

The insertion is needed in order to explain the confidence of Moses in regard to the last plague (<a href="/exodus/11-5.htm" title="And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the first born of Pharaoh that sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts.">Exodus 11:5</a>), and the effect it would have on the Egyptians (<a href="/exodus/11-8.htm" title="And all these your servants shall come down to me, and bow down themselves to me, saying, Get you out, and all the people that follow you: and after that I will go out.

Before Moses was summoned to appear in the presence of Pharaoh as related in <a href="/exodus/10-24.htm">Exodus 10:24</a>, it had been expressly revealed to him by God, 1. That one more plague, and one only, was impending; 2. That this infliction would be effectual, and be followed by the departure of the Israelites; and, 3. That instead of reluctantly allowing them to withdraw from his kingdom, the monarch would be eager for their departure and would actually hasten it. He had also been told that the time was now come when the promise made to him in Mount Horeb, that his people should "spoil the Egyptians" (<a href="/exodus/3-22.htm">Exodus 3:22</a>), would receive its accomplishment. The Israelites, before departing, were to ask their Egyptian neighbours for any articles of gold and silver that they possessed, and would receive them (ver. 2). The reasons for this extraordinary generosity on the part of the Egyptians are then mentioned, in prolongation of the parenthesis. . . . <a href="/commentaries/exodus/11-1.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>Then the LORD יְהוָ֜ה (Yah·weh) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3068.htm">Strong's 3068: </a> LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israel said וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (way·yō·mer) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_559.htm">Strong's 559: </a> To utter, say to אֶל־ (’el-) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_413.htm">Strong's 413: </a> Near, with, among, to Moses, מֹשֶׁ֗ה (mō·šeh) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4872.htm">Strong's 4872: </a> Moses -- a great Israelite leader, prophet and lawgiver “I will bring אָבִ֤יא (’ā·ḇî) Verb - Hifil - Imperfect - first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_935.htm">Strong's 935: </a> To come in, come, go in, go upon עַל־ (‘al-) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5921.htm">Strong's 5921: </a> Above, over, upon, against Pharaoh פַּרְעֹה֙ (par·‘ōh) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6547.htm">Strong's 6547: </a> Pharaoh -- a title of Egypt kings and וְעַל־ (wə·‘al-) Conjunctive waw | Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5921.htm">Strong's 5921: </a> Above, over, upon, against Egypt מִצְרַ֔יִם (miṣ·ra·yim) Noun - proper - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4714.htm">Strong's 4714: </a> Egypt -- a son of Ham, also his descendants and their country in Northwest Africa one אֶחָד֙ (’e·ḥāḏ) Number - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_259.htm">Strong's 259: </a> United, one, first more ע֣וֹד (‘ō·wḏ) Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5750.htm">Strong's 5750: </a> Iteration, continuance, again, repeatedly, still, more plague. נֶ֤גַע (ne·ḡa‘) Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5061.htm">Strong's 5061: </a> Mark -- a blow, a spot After אַֽחֲרֵי־ (’a·ḥă·rê-) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_310.htm">Strong's 310: </a> The hind or following part that, כֵ֕ן (ḵên) Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3651.htm">Strong's 3651: </a> So -- thus he will allow you to leave יְשַׁלַּ֥ח (yə·šal·laḥ) Verb - Piel - Imperfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7971.htm">Strong's 7971: </a> To send away, for, out this place. מִזֶּ֑ה (miz·zeh) Preposition-m | Pronoun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2088.htm">Strong's 2088: </a> This, that And when he lets you go, כְּשַׁ֨לְּח֔וֹ (kə·šal·lə·ḥōw) Preposition-k | Verb - Piel - Infinitive construct | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7971.htm">Strong's 7971: </a> To send away, for, out he will drive you out גָּרֵ֛שׁ (gā·rêš) Verb - Piel - Infinitive absolute <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1644.htm">Strong's 1644: </a> To drive out from a, possession, to expatriate, divorce completely. כָּלָ֕ה (kā·lāh) Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3617.htm">Strong's 3617: </a> Completion, complete destruction, consumption, annihilation <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/exodus/11-1.htm">Exodus 11:1 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/exodus/11-1.htm">OT Law: Exodus 11:1 Yahweh said to Moses Yet one plague (Exo.
