Theological / Devotional

Hail. The seventh plague (Ex. 9:18–26). The hail both ruined the products of the land and destroyed the cattle.

Frost. Heb. chanamal, a word occurring only here. Its meaning is doubtful. From a similar Arabic root some derive the meaning “devastating flood.” “Frost” is the reading of the LXX.
