Exodus 4:27 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The Lord said, &c.— For Moses's farther comfort, God sends Aaron to meet him. The interview was affectionate; and, Moses having informed him of God's commission, they proceed together, and are received with joy by the elders and people. Note; 1. The comfortable meeting of friends is a mercy, but the obedient attention of the people to their ministers, a greater. 2. We should not be too sanguine on the first promising appearances: the fullest-blown tree bears not always proportionable fruit. 3. If grace do not melt the heart, miracles can produce but a temporary faith.

Exodus 4:27
