The instructions God had given to Moses, which he was now to pursue (Exodus 11:1, 11:2), together with the interest Israel and Moses had in the esteem of the Egyptians, Exodus 11:3. II.

A repetition of the prediction of Pharaoh’s hardening his heart, (Exodus 11:9), and the event answering to it, Exodus 11:10. MHBCC 62.1
