Psalms 78:49 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Indignation and trouble; other most grievous plagues, which were mixed with and were the effects of his anger and wrath; whereby their miseries were greatly aggravated, and distinguished from the afflictions which God sent upon the Israelites in Egypt, which were only fatherly chastisements, and the effects of God's love and occasions of their deliverance. By sending evil angels, Heb. the sending (or the operation or effects) of evil angels, or of the angels or messengers of evil things; either of the angels whom God employed in producing these plagues; or of Moses and Aaron, who were to the Egyptians messengers of evil, and by whom these judgments were sent to and inflicted upon them.

Psalms 78:49

49 He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.
