Exodus 9:23 — Meaning and Application

And he that regarded not the word of the LORD left his servants and his cattle in the field. {regarded...: Heb. set not his heart unto}

And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch forth thine hand toward heaven, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon man, and upon beast, and upon every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.

And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along upon the ground; and the LORD rained hail upon the land of Egypt.

So there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, very grievous, such as there was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.

And the hail smote throughout all the land of Egypt all that {was} in the field, both man and beast; and the hail smote every herb of the field, and brake every tree of the field.
