Psalms 105:28 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

2. Moses and Aaron, mentioned Psalms 105:26, and called they, Psalms 105:27, whose obedience in denouncing and inflicting these plagues, and especially that plague of darkness, is noted and commended here as an act of great faith and fortitude, because they inflicted that plague after Pharaoh had threatened them, Exodus 10:10; as the obedience of their parents is commended as a great act of faith, because they preserved and hid their son contrary to the express command of the king of Egypt.

Psalms 105:28
