Commentary on Hebrews 11:28

Theological / Devotional

Through faith. See on verses 1, 3.

Kept the passover. For the record of events mentioned in this verse see Exodus 12:1-36. After the ninth plague Pharaoh had placed Moses under the threat of death should he again appear in the royal presence (see Exodus 10:28). It must have taken great faith on Moses’ part to issue the instructions he did with regard to the tenth plague, the Passover, and the Exodus. For the duration of the first nine plagues Pharaoh had stubbornly refused to let Israel go. There was no human reason to believe he would do so under the tenth plague.
