Commentary on Exodus 8:9

Theological / Devotional

Glory over me. This is an expression of courtesy which means “have the honor of my submission,” or as in the RSV, “be pleased to command me.” By calling upon Pharaoh to appoint the time for the removal of the frogs Moses gave him another opportunity to witness the undeniable power of God.
