- Genesis 3:6–11
When the woman saw that the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eyes, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom, she took the fruit and ate it. She also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it.
Commentary on Genesis 3:6–112 voices
That the Lord then was manifestly coming to His own things, and was sustaining them by means of that creation which is supported by Himself, and was making a recapitulation of that disobedience which had occurred in connection with a tree, through the obedience which was [exhibited by Himself when He hung] upon a tree, [the effects] also of that deception being done away with, by which that virgin Eve, who was already espoused to a man, was unhappily misled,-was happily announced, through means of the truth [spoken] by the angel to the Virgin Mary, who was [also espoused] to a man.
Irenaeus· Against Heresies 5.19.1, 202Patristic
And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food,....

- Genesis 19:19
Your servant has indeed found favor in your sight, and you have shown me great kindness by sparing my life. But I cannot run to the mountains; the disaster will overtake me, and I will die.
Commentary on Genesis 19:192 voices
And Lot said to them: "Please, my lord, because your servant has found favor before you, and you have magnified your mercy, which you have done with me, to save my life, I cannot be saved in the mountain, lest some evil overtake me. There …

- Genesis 19:20
Look, there is a town nearby where I can flee, and it is a small place. Please let me flee there—is it not a small place? Then my life will be saved.”
Commentary on Genesis 19:202 voices
Behold now, this city is near to flee unto,.... Pointing to Bela, afterwards called Zoar, from what follows: it is said to be two miles distant from Sodom (z).
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
It is a little one - Probably Lot wished to have it for an inheritance, and therefore pleaded its being a little one, that his request might be the more readily granted. Or he might suppose, that being a little city, it was less depraved than Sodom and Gomorrah, and therefore not so ripe for punishment; which was probably the case.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Genesis 19:26
But Lot’s wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.
Commentary on Genesis 19:262 voices
But let us return to Lot, who, fleeing the destruction of Sodom with his wife and daughters after he had received the command from the angels to not look back, was proceeding to Zoar. But his wife became negligent of the command. "She looked back"; she violated the imposed law; "she became a little statue of salt." Do we think there was so much evil in this transgression, that the woman, because she looked behind her, incurred the destruction that she appeared to be fleeing by divine favor?
Origen of Alexandria· HOMILIES ON GENESIS 5.2, 253Patristic
But his wife looked back from behind him,....

- Exodus 4:13
But Moses replied, “Please, Lord, send someone else.”
Commentary on Exodus 4:132 voices
And he said, O my Lord,.... Acknowledging his dominion, his sovereignty, his power to do the above things: or "on me, O Lord" (u), be the blame for making such objections; or on me let this work be devolved, since it is thy pleasure: send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
And he said - The reluctance of Moses is in accordance with the inner law of mans spiritual development, and specially with his own character; but, under the circumstances, it indicated a weakness of faith.
Albert Barnes· Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)Evangelical
- Exodus 4:14
Then the anger of the LORD burned against Moses, and He said, “Is not Aaron the Levite your brother? I know that he can speak well, and he is now on his way to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.
Commentary on Exodus 4:142 voices
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses,.... For the objections, excuses, and delays he made with respect to his mission.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses - Surely this would not have been the case had he only in modesty, and from a deep sense of his own unfitness, desired that the Messiah should be preferred before him. But the whole connection shows that this interpretation is unfounded.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Exodus 5:2
But Pharaoh replied, “Who is the LORD that I should obey His voice and let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, and I will not let Israel go.”
Commentary on Exodus 5:22 voices
And Pharaoh said, who is the Lord,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Who is the Lord - Who is Jehovah, that I should obey his voice? What claims has he on me? I am under no obligation to him. Pharaoh spoke here under the common persuasion that every place and people had a tutelary deity, and he supposed that this Jehovah might be the tutelary deity of the Israelites, to whom he, as an Egyptian, could be under no kind of obligation. It is not judicious to bring this question as a proof that Pharaoh was an atheist: of this the text affords no evidence.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Exodus 7:13
Still, Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.
Commentary on Exodus 7:132 voices
And he hardened Pharaoh's heart,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
And he hardened Pharaohs heart - ויחזק לב פרעה vaiyechezak leb Paroh, And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, the identical words which in Exo 7:22 are thus translated, and which should have been rendered in the same way here, lest the hardening, which was evidently the effect of his own obstinate shutting of his eyes against the truth, should be attributed to God. See Clarkes note on Exo 4:21.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Exodus 7:22
But the magicians of Egypt did the same things by their magic arts. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.
Commentary on Exodus 7:222 voices
And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
And the magicians - did so - But if all the water in Egypt was turned into blood by Moses, where did the magicians get the water which they changed into blood? This question is answered in Exo 7:24. The Egyptians dug round about the river for water to drink, and it seems that the water obtained by this means was not bloody like that in the river: on this water therefore the magicians might operate.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Exodus 7:23
Instead, Pharaoh turned around, went into his palace, and did not take any of this to heart.

- Exodus 8:15
When Pharaoh saw that there was relief, however, he hardened his heart and would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.

But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite,....

- Exodus 8:19
“This is the finger of God,” the magicians said to Pharaoh. But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.
Commentary on Exodus 8:192 voices
"For in her is a spirit intelligent, holy, unique, manifold, subtle." This spirit lifts up the soul and teaches unforeseen things. "This is the finger of God" which the Pharaoh's magician cannot touch, that is, our mind. Many wise men possess the first faces of …
Bonaventure· Collations on the Hexaemeron, Collation 2, 1257Patristic
Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, this is the finger of God,....

- Exodus 8:32
But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time as well, and he would not let the people go.
Commentary on Exodus 8:322 voices
And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also,.... As he did before, when he found the plague was removed, and the flies were gone: neither would he let the people go; through pride and covetousness, being loath to have the number of those under his dominion so much diminished, and to lose so large a branch of his revenues arising from the labour of these people.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also - See Exo 8:15. This hardening was the mere effect of his self-determining obstinacy. He preferred his gain to the will and command of Jehovah, and God made his obstinacy the means of showing forth his own power and providence in a supereminent degree.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Exodus 9:12
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said to Moses.
Commentary on Exodus 9:121 voice
And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh,....

- Exodus 9:34
When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had ceased, he sinned again and hardened his heart—he and his officials.
Commentary on Exodus 9:342 voices
And when Pharaoh saw that the rain, and the hail, and the thunders were ceased,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
He sinned yet more, and hardened his heart - These were merely acts of his own; for who can deny, says Mr. Psalmanazar, that what God did on Pharaoh was much more proper to soften than to harden his heart; especially when it is observable that it was not till after seeing each miracle, and after the ceasing of each plague, that his heart is said to have been hardened?
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Exodus 10:20
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let the Israelites go.
Commentary on Exodus 10:201 voice
But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart,.... For as yet he had not brought all his judgments on him he designed to bring: so that he would not let the children of Israel go: though he had promised to do it, and that he would never offend more in this way.
