The Plagues of Egypt. . 1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might show these my signs before him: 2 And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD . 3 And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me. 4 Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to morrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast: 5 And they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field: 6 And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh. 7 And Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed? 8 And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve the LORD your God: but who are they that shall go? 9 And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast unto the LORD . 10 And he said unto them, Let the LORD be so with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones: look to it; for evil is before you. 11 Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve the LORD ; for that ye did desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence. Here, I. Moses is instructed. We may well suppose that he, for his part, was much astonished both at Pharaoh's obstinacy and at God's severity, and could not but be compassionately concerned for the desolations of Egypt, and at a loss to conceive what this contest would come to at last. Now here God tells him what he designed, not only Israel's release, but the magnifying of his own name: That thou mayest tell in thy writings, which shall continue to the world's end, what I have wrought in Egypt, Exodus 10:1 ; Exodus 10:2 . The ten plagues of Egypt must be inflicted, that they may be recorded for the generations to come as undeniable proofs, 1. Of God's overruling power in the kingdom of nature, his dominion over all the creatures, and his authority to use them either as servants to his justice or sufferers by it, according to the counsel of his will. 2. Of God's victorious power over the kingdom of Satan, to restrain the malice and chastise the insolence of his and his church's enemies. These plagues are standing monuments of the greatness of God, the happiness of the church, and the sinfulness of sin, and standing monitors to the children of men in all ages not to provoke the Lord to jealousy nor to strive with their Maker. The benefit of these instructions to the world sufficiently balances the expense. II. Pharaoh is reproved ( Exodus 10:3 ; Exodus 10:3 ): Thus saith the Lord God of the poor, despised, persecuted, Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? Note, It is justly expected from the greatest of men that they humble themselves before the great God, and it is at their peril if they refuse to do it. This has more than once been God's quarrel with princes. Belshazzar did not humble his heart, Daniel 5:22 . Zedekiah humbled not himself before Jeremiah, 2 Chronicles 36:12 . Those that will not humble themselves God will humble. Pharaoh had sometimes pretended to humble himself, but no account was made of it, because he was neither sincere nor constant in it. III. The plague of locusts is threatened, Exodus 10:4-6 ; Exodus 10:4-6 . The hail had broken down the fruits of the earth, but these locusts should come and devour them: and not only so, but they should fill their houses, whereas the former inroads of these insects had been confined to their lands. This should be much worse than all the calamities of that king which had ever been known. Moses, when he had delivered his message, not expecting any better answer than he had formerly, turned himself and went out from Pharaoh, Exodus 10:6 ; Exodus 10:6 . Thus Christ appointed his disciples to depart from those who would not receive them, and to shake off the dust of their feet for a testimony against them; and ruin is not far off from those who are thus justly abandoned by the Lord's messengers, 1 Samuel 15:27 , c. IV. Pharaoh's attendants, his ministers of state, or privy-counsellors, interpose, to persuade him to come to some terms with Moses, Exodus 10:7 ; Exodus 10:7 . They, as in duty bound, represent to him the deplorable condition of the kingdom ( Egypt is destroyed ), and advise him by all means to release his prisoners ( Let the men go ); for Moses, they found, would be a snare to them till it was done, and it were better to consent at first than to be compelled at last. The Israelites had become a burdensome stone to the Egyptians, and now, at length, the princes of Egypt were willing to be rid of them, Zechariah 12:3 . Note, It is a thing to be regretted (and prevented, if possible) that a whole nation should be ruined for the pride and obstinacy of its princes, Salus populi suprema lex--To consult the welfare of the people is the first of laws. V. A new treaty is, hereupon, set on foot between Pharaoh and Moses, in which Pharaoh consents for the Israelites to go into the wilderness to do sacrifice; but the matter in dispute was who should go, Exodus 10:8 ; Exodus 10:8 . 1. Moses insists that they should take their whole families, and all their effects, along with them, Exodus 10:9 ; Exodus 10:9 . Note, Those that serve God must serve him with all they have. Moses pleads, "We must hold a feast, therefore we must have our families to feast with, and our flocks and herds to feast upon, to the honour of God." 2. Pharaoh will by no means grant this: he will allow the men to go, pretending that this was all they desired, though this matter was never yet mentioned in any of the former treaties; but, for the little ones, he resolves to keep them as hostages, to oblige them to return, Exodus 10:10 ; Exodus 10:11 . In a great passion he curses them, and threatens that, if they offer to remove their little ones, they will do it at their peril. Note, Satan does all he can to hinder those that serve God themselves from bringing their children in to serve him. He is a sworn enemy to early piety, knowing how destructive it is to the interests of his kingdom; whatever would hinder us from engaging our children to the utmost in God's service, we have reason to suspect the hand of Satan in it. 3. The treaty, hereupon, breaks off abruptly; those that before went out from Pharaoh's presence ( Exodus 10:6 ; Exodus 10:6 ) were now driven out. Those will quickly hear their doom that cannot bear to hear their duty. See 2 Chronicles 25:16 . Quos Deus destruet eos dementat--Whom God intends to destroy he delivers up to infatuation. Never was man so infatuated to his own ruin as Pharaoh was. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-12-20" class="com-number"

이 단락에서 우리는 다음을 본다.

I. 모세가 교훈을 받다. 모세는 바로의 완고함과 하나님의 엄중한 처사 앞에서 크게 놀랐을 것이며, 이집트의 황폐함을 측은히 여겼을 것이고, 이 싸움이 결국 어떻게 될 것인지 이해하기 어려웠을 것이다. 이에 하나님께서 그에게 목적을 알려 주신다. 이스라엘의 해방뿐 아니라 자신의 이름을 높이시려는 것이다. "네가 이집트에서 내가 행한 일과 내 표적을 네 아들과 네 자손에게 이야기하게 하려 함이라"(출애굽기 10:1, 2). 이집트의 열 가지 재앙은 세세대대 기록되어야 할 것이었는바, 그것은 다음의 사실을 부정할 수 없는 증거로 남기기 위함이다. 1. 자연 왕국에서의 하나님의 통치권 — 모든 피조물에 대한 지배권과, 그들을 자신의 의의 도구로 삼거나 그 심판의 대상으로 삼는 권위. 2. 사탄의 왕국에 대한 하나님의 승리의 능력 — 하나님의 교회의 원수들의 악의를 억제하고 그 오만함을 징계하는 능력. 이 재앙들은 하나님의 위대하심, 교회의 복됨, 죄의 가증함을 모든 세대에게 상기시켜 주는 영구적인 증거들이다.

II. 바로가 책망을 받다(출애굽기 10:3). "히브리인의 하나님 여호와께서 이같이 말씀하시기를, 네가 어느 때까지 내 앞에 겸비하기를 거절하겠느냐?" 가장 강력한 권세를 가진 자라 할지라도 위대하신 하나님 앞에 겸손해야 하며, 그러기를 거부하면 큰 위험에 처한다. 이것은 하나님께서 왕들에게 여러 번 제기하신 문제다. 벨사살은 마음을 낮추지 아니하였고(다니엘 5:22), 시드기야는 예레미야 앞에서 겸손하지 아니하였다(역대하 36:12). 스스로 겸손하지 않는 자를 하나님께서 낮추신다. 바로는 때로 겸손한 척했으나, 진실하지도 않았고 한결같지도 않았으므로 아무런 의미가 없었다.

III. 메뚜기 재앙이 예고되다(출애굽기 10:4-6). 우박이 땅의 열매들을 쓰러뜨렸지만, 메뚜기 떼가 와서 그것들을 먹어 치울 것이다. 게다가 이전의 곤충 떼는 들판에만 머물렀으나, 이번에는 그들의 집까지 가득 채울 것이다. 이것은 이집트 역사상 전례 없는 재앙이 될 것이다. 모세는 자신의 메시지를 전달한 후 더 나은 답변을 기대하지 않았으므로 바로에게서 등을 돌려 나가버렸다(출애굽기 10:6). 이와 같이 그리스도께서도 제자들에게 영접하지 않는 자들에게서 떠나 발의 먼지를 떨어 버리라고 명하셨다. 주의 사신들에게 이처럼 버림받은 자들에게는 멸망이 멀지 않다(사무엘상 15:27).

IV. 바로의 신하들이 개입하다(출애굽기 10:7). 국무대신이나 추밀원 의원들이 바로에게 나라의 비참한 상황("이집트가 망하였나이다")을 직언하며, 이스라엘 사람들을 보내 주도록 권고한다. 모세가 그들에게 올무가 되어 왔으므로, 처음에 동의하는 것이 마지막에 강요당하는 것보다 낫다고 판단했기 때문이다. 이스라엘 백성이 이집트에 무거운 짐이 되었고, 결국 이집트 왕족들도 그들을 제거하기를 원하게 되었다(스가랴 12:3). 한 민족 전체가 위정자들의 교만과 완고함 때문에 망하게 되는 것은 참으로 애통할 일이다.

V. 새로운 협상이 시작되다(출애굽기 10:8). 바로는 이스라엘 사람들이 광야로 가서 제사를 드리는 것에 동의하지만, 누가 갈 것인지가 쟁점이다.

1. 모세는 온 가족과 모든 재산을 함께 가져가야 한다고 주장한다(출애굽기 10:9). "우리가 절기를 지켜야 하므로, 함께 잔치할 가족이 있어야 하고, 잔치에 쓸 양 떼와 소 떼가 필요합니다." 하나님을 섬기는 자는 자신의 모든 것으로 섬겨야 한다.

2. 바로는 결코 이에 동의하지 않는다. 남자들만 가는 것은 허락하겠으나, 어린 자녀들은 그들이 돌아오게 하는 인질로 붙들어 두겠다는 것이다(출애굽기 10:10, 11). 그는 그들을 저주하며, 어린 자녀들을 데려가려 하면 화가 닥칠 것이라고 위협한다. 사탄은 하나님을 섬기는 사람들이 자녀들을 데리고 하나님께 나아오는 것을 방해하기 위해 온갖 수단을 다 쓴다. 사탄은 어린 시절의 경건함이 자신의 나라에 얼마나 치명적인지 잘 알고 있다. 우리 자녀들이 최대한 하나님을 섬기는 데 헌신하는 것을 방해하는 것들 뒤에는 사탄의 손이 있다고 의심할 충분한 이유가 있다.

3. 협상은 갑작스럽게 결렬된다. 이전에 바로의 앞에서 나간 자들이(출애굽기 10:6) 이번에는 쫓겨났다. 자신의 의무를 듣기 싫어하는 자는 곧 자신의 심판을 듣게 된다(역대하 25:16). 바로처럼 자기 자신의 파멸을 향해 이렇게 미혹된 사람은 없었다.

이 장에는 이집트에 내린 여덟 번째와 아홉 번째 재앙, 곧 메뚜기 재앙과 흑암 재앙이 기록되어 있다. I. 메뚜기 재앙과 관련하여, 1. 하나님께서 모세에게 이 놀라운 섭리의 의미를 가르쳐 주신다(출애굽기 10:1, 2). 2. 메뚜기 재앙을 예고하신다(출애굽기 10:3-6). 3. 바로는 신하들의 설득으로 모세와 다시 협상하려 하지만(출애굽기 10:7-9), 합의에 이르지 못한다(출애굽기 10:10, 11). 4. 메뚜기 떼가 몰려온다(출애굽기 10:12-15). 5. 바로가 "내가 죄를 지었다"고 고백하고(출애굽기 10:16, 17), 모세가 재앙 제거를 위해 기도하여 이루어지지만, 바로의 마음은 여전히 완고하다(출애굽기 10:18-20). II. 흑암 재앙과 관련하여, 1. 재앙이 내린다(출애굽기 10:21-23). 2. 바로가 다시 모세와 협상하려 하지만, 협상은 격렬한 상황에서 결렬된다(출애굽기 10:26-29).

12 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left. 13 And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all that night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts. 14 And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt: very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such. 15 For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt. 16 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you. 17 Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and intreat the LORD your God, that he may take away from me this death only. 18 And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD . 19 And the LORD turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the coasts of Egypt. 20 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go. Here is, I. The invasion of the land by the locusts-- God's great army, Joel 2:11 . God bids Moses stretch out his hand ( Exodus 10:12 ; Exodus 10:12 ), to beckon them, as it wee (for they came at a call), and he stretched forth his rod, Exodus 10:13 ; Exodus 10:13 . Compare Exodus 9:22 ; Exodus 9:23 . Moses ascribes it to the stretching out, not of his own hand, but the rod of God, the instituted sign of God's presence with him. The locusts obey the summons, and fly upon the wings of the wind, the east wind, and caterpillars without number, as we are told, Psalms 105:34 ; Psalms 105:35 . A formidable army of horse and foot might more easily have been resisted than this host of insects. Who then is able to stand before the great God? II. The desolations they made in it ( Exodus 10:15 ; Exodus 10:15 ): They covered the face of the earth, and ate up the fruit of it. The earth God has given to the children of men; yet, when God pleases, he can disturb their possession and send locusts and caterpillars to force them out. Herbs grow for the service of man; yet, when God pleases, those contemptible insects shall not only be fellow-commoners with him, but shall plunder him, and eat the bread out of his mouth. Let our labour be, not for the habitation and meat which thus lie exposed, but for those which endure to eternal life, which cannot be thus invaded, nor thus corrupted. III. Pharaoh's admission, hereupon, Exodus 10:16 ; Exodus 10:17 . He had driven Moses and Aaron from him ( Exodus 10:11 ; Exodus 10:11 ), telling them (it is likely) he would have no more to do with them. But now he calls for them again in all haste, and makes court to them with as much respect as before he had dismissed them with disdain. Note, The day will come when those who set at nought their counsellors, and despise all their reproofs, will be glad to make an interest in them and engage them to intercede on their behalf. The foolish virgins court the wise to give them of their oil; and see Psalms 141:6 . 1. Pharaoh confesses his fault: I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you. He now sees his own folly in the slights and affronts he had put on God and his ambassadors, and seems at least, to repent of it. When God convinces men of sin, and humbles them for it, their contempt of God's ministers, and the word of the Lord in their mouths, will certainly come into the account, and lie heavily upon their consciences. Some think that when Pharaoh said, "The LORD your God," he did in effect say, "The LORD shall not be my God." Many treat with God as a potent enemy, whom they are willing not to be at war with, but care not for treating with him as their rightful prince, to whom they are willing to submit with loyal affection. True penitents lament sin as committed against God, even their own God, to whom they stand obliged. 2. He begs pardon, not of God, as penitents ought, but of Moses, which was more excusable in him, because, by a special commission, Moses was made a god to Pharaoh, and whosesoever sins he remitted they were forgiven; when he prays, Forgive this once, he, in effect, promises not to offend in like manner any more, yet seems loth to express that promise, nor does he say any thing particularly of letting the people go. Note, Counterfeit repentance commonly cheats men with general promises and is loth to covenant against particular sins. 3. He entreats Moses and Aaron to pray for him. There are those who, in distress, implore the help of other persons' prayers, but have no mind to pray for themselves, showing thereby that they have no true love to God, nor any delight in communion with him. Pharaoh desires their prayers that this death only might be taken away, not this sin: he deprecates the plague of locusts, not the plague of a hard heart, which yet was much the more dangerous. IV. The removal of the judgment, upon the prayer of Moses, Exodus 10:18 ; Exodus 10:19 . This was, 1. As great an instance of the power of God as the judgment itself. An east wind brought the locusts, and now a west wind carried them off. Note, Whatever point of the compass the wind is in, it is fulfilling God's word, and turns about by his counsel. The wind bloweth where it listeth, as it respects any control of ours; not so as it respects the control of God: he directeth it under the whole heaven. 2. It was as great a proof of the authority of Moses, and as firm a ratification of his commission and his interest in that God who both makes peace and creates evil, Isaiah 45:7 . Nay, hereby he not only commanded the respect, but recommended himself to the good affections of the Egyptians, inasmuch as, while the judgment came in obedience to his summons, the removal of it was in answer to his prayers. He never desired the woeful day, though he threatened it. His commission indeed ran against Egypt, but his intercession was for it, which was a good reason why they should love him, though they feared him. 3. It was also as strong an argument for their repentance as the judgment itself; for by this it appeared that God is ready to forgive, and swift to show mercy. If he turn away a particular judgment, as he did often from Pharaoh, or defer it, as in Ahab's case, upon the profession of repentance and the outward tokens of humiliation, what will he do if we be sincere, and how welcome will true penitents be to him! O that this goodness of God might lead us to repentance! V. Pharaoh's return to his impious resolution again not to let the people go ( Exodus 10:20 ; Exodus 10:20 ), through the righteous hand of God upon him, hardening his heart, and confirming him in his obstinacy. Note, Those that have often baffled their convictions, and stood it out against them, forfeit the benefit of them, and are justly given up to those lusts of their own hearts which (how strong soever their convictions) prove too strong for them. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-21-29" class="com-number"

이 단락에서 우리는 다음을 본다.

I. 메뚜기 떼가 이집트 땅을 침공하다 — 하나님의 큰 군대(요엘 2:11). 하나님께서 모세에게 손을 내밀라고 명하시고(출애굽기 10:12), 모세는 지팡이를 내밀었다(출애굽기 10:13; 출애굽기 9:22, 23 참고). 모세는 이것을 자신의 손이 아니라 하나님의 지팡이를 내밀어 이루어진 것이라고 말한다. 메뚜기 떼는 동풍의 날개를 타고 날아왔고, 헤아릴 수 없는 수의 황충 떼가 몰려들었다(시편 105:34, 35). 말과 보병으로 구성된 어떤 군대도 이 곤충 떼보다 막기 쉬웠을 것이다. 그렇다면 위대하신 하나님 앞에 누가 능히 서겠는가?

II. 메뚜기 떼가 이집트를 황폐하게 하다(출애굽기 10:15). 그들이 땅의 표면을 덮고 그 열매를 먹어 치웠다. 하나님께서는 뜻하시면 메뚜기와 황충을 보내어 그들을 내쫓으실 수 있다. 풀은 사람을 위해 자라지만, 하나님께서 기뻐하시면 이 미물들이 사람과 함께 먹을 뿐 아니라 그를 약탈하고 입의 양식을 빼앗을 것이다. 그러므로 우리는 이처럼 드러나 부패할 수 있는 양식과 거처를 위해 수고하지 말고, 영원한 생명에 이르는 것들을 위해 힘써야 한다.

III. 바로가 이에 굴복하다(출애굽기 10:16, 17). 그는 모세와 아론을 쫓아냈으나(출애굽기 10:11), 이제 그들을 급히 다시 부른다. 전에는 경멸로 그들을 내보냈지만 이제는 깍듯이 예우하며 그들에게 탄원한다. 이처럼 하나님의 권고자들을 무시하고 그들의 모든 책망을 멸시하는 자들이 결국 그들을 통해 중보를 구하게 되는 날이 올 것이다.

1. 바로가 자신의 잘못을 고백한다. "내가 주 당신들의 하나님과 당신들에게 죄를 지었소." 그는 적어도 겉으로는 회개하는 것처럼 보인다. 하나님께서 사람들을 죄에 대해 확신시키고 겸비하게 하실 때, 하나님의 종들과 그들의 말에 대한 경멸도 반드시 그 계산에 포함되어 양심을 무겁게 짓누른다. "주 당신들의 하나님"이라고 말한 것은 사실상 "여호와는 나의 하나님이 아니다"라고 말한 것이다. 많은 사람들이 하나님을 강력한 원수로 여기며 전쟁 상태를 피하려 하면서도, 합당한 복종으로 그분을 왕으로 섬기려 하지 않는다.

2. 바로가 용서를 구하되, 하나님께 구하지 않고 모세에게 구한다. 그는 특별한 사명으로 바로 앞에서 하나님과 같은 권위를 지녔으므로 어느 정도 이해할 수 있다. "이번 한 번만 용서해 주시오"라는 말은 사실상 다시는 이런 잘못을 하지 않겠다는 약속이지만, 그는 그 약속을 명시적으로 하지는 않는다. 또한 백성을 보내겠다는 말도 하지 않는다. 거짓 회개는 흔히 막연한 약속으로 사람들을 속이며, 특정 죄에 대해 언약하기를 꺼린다.

3. 바로가 모세와 아론에게 기도를 부탁한다. 고통 중에 다른 사람의 기도를 구하면서도 자신은 기도하기를 싫어하는 자들은, 하나님을 진정으로 사랑하지 않으며 그분과의 교통을 즐거워하지 않는다는 것을 드러내는 것이다. 바로는 "이 죽음만" 거두어 달라고 간구할 뿐, "이 죄만"을 거두어 달라고 하지 않는다. 완고한 마음의 재앙이 훨씬 더 위험한 것인데도 그것을 구하지 않는다.

IV. 모세의 기도로 재앙이 제거되다(출애굽기 10:18, 19).

1. 이것은 재앙 자체만큼이나 하나님의 능력의 큰 증거다. 동풍이 메뚜기를 몰고 왔고, 이제 서풍이 그것을 몰아간다. 바람이 어느 방향에서 불든, 그것은 하나님의 말씀을 이루고 그분의 뜻에 따라 방향을 바꾼다. 바람은 우리의 통제를 받지 않지만, 하나님의 통제에서 벗어나지 않는다. 그분이 온 하늘 아래서 방향을 지시하신다.

2. 이것은 모세의 권위를 확증하는 강력한 증거였다. 재앙은 그의 부름에 응하여 왔고, 그 제거는 그의 기도에 응답하여 이루어졌으니, 이집트 사람들이 그를 두려워할 뿐 아니라 사랑할 이유가 충분하다. 그는 결코 재앙의 날을 바라지 않았다.

3. 이것은 회개를 위한 강력한 논거이기도 하다. 하나님께서 겉으로 보이는 회개와 겸비의 표시에도 불구하고 아합의 경우처럼 심판을 미루신다면, 진실한 회개를 한다면 얼마나 더 크게 용서해 주시겠는가! 오, 하나님의 이 선하심이 우리를 회개에로 이끌기를 바란다!

V. 바로가 다시 완고한 결심으로 돌아가다(출애굽기 10:20). 하나님의 의로우신 손이 그의 마음을 굳게 하여 완고함을 고집하게 하셨다. 자신의 확신들을 여러 번 무너뜨리고 계속 그것에 저항한 자들은 그 유익을 잃게 되며, 마음의 정욕에 내어버림을 당하는 것이 마땅하다.

21 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt. 22 And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days: 23 They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings. 24 And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the LORD ; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you. 25 And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the LORD our God. 26 Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve the LORD , until we come thither. 27 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go. 28 And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die. 29 And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will see thy face again no more. Here is, I. The plague of darkness brought upon Egypt, and a most dreadful plague it was, and therefore is put first of the ten in Psalms 105:28 , though it was one of the last; and in the destruction of the spiritual Egypt it is produced by the fifth vial, which is poured out upon the seat of the beast, Revelation 16:10 . His kingdom was full of darkness. Observe particularly concerning this plague, 1. That it was a total darkness. We have reason to think, not only that the lights of heaven were clouded, but that all their fires and candles were put out by the damps or clammy vapours which were the cause of this darkness; for it is said ( Exodus 10:23 ; Exodus 10:23 ), They saw not one another. It is threatened to the wicked ( Job 18:5 ; Job 18:6 ) that the spark of his fire shall not shine (even the sparks of his own kindling, as they are called, Isaiah 50:11 ), and that the light shall be dark in his tabernacle. Hell is utter darkness. The light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee, Revelation 18:23 . 2. That it was darkness which might be felt ( Exodus 10:21 ; Exodus 10:21 ), felt in its causes by their fingers' ends (so thick were the fogs), felt in its effects, some think, by their eyes, which were pricked with pain, and made the more sore by their rubbing them. Great pain is spoken of as the effect of that darkness, Revelation 16:10 , which alludes to this. 3. No doubt it astonished and terrified them. The cloud of locusts, which had darkened the land ( Exodus 10:15 ; Exodus 10:15 ), was nothing to this. The tradition of the Jews is that in this darkness they were terrified by the apparitions of evil spirits, or rather by dreadful sounds and murmurs which they made, or (which is no less frightful) by the horrors of their own consciences; and this is the plague which some think is intended (for, otherwise, it is not mentioned at all there) Psalms 78:49 , He poured upon them the fierceness of his anger, by sending evil angels among them; for to those to whom the devil has been a deceiver he will, at length, be a terror. 4. It continued three days, six nights (says bishop Hall) in one; so long they were imprisoned by those chains of darkness, and the most lightsome palaces were perfect dungeons. No man rose from his place, Exodus 10:23 ; Exodus 10:23 . They were all confined to their houses; and such a terror seized them that few of them had the courage to go from the chair to the bed, or from the bed to the chair. Thus were they silent in darkness, 1 Samuel 2:9 . Now Pharaoh had time to consider, if he would have improved it. Spiritual darkness is spiritual bondage; while Satan blinds men's eyes that they see not, he binds them hands and feet that they work not for God, nor move towards heaven. They sit in darkness. 5. It was a righteous thing with God thus to punish them. Pharaoh and his people had rebelled against the light of God's word, which Moses spoke to them; justly therefore are they punished with darkness, for they loved it and chose it rather. The blindness of their minds brings upon them this darkness of the air. Never was mind so blinded as Pharaoh's, never was air so darkened as Egypt's. The Egyptians by their cruelty would have extinguished the lamp of Israel, and quenched their coal; justly therefore does God put out their lights. Compare it with the punishment of the Sodomites, Genesis 19:11 . Let us dread the consequences of sin; if three days' darkness was so dreadful, what will everlasting darkness be? 6. The children of Israel, at the same time, had light in their dwellings ( Exodus 10:23 ; Exodus 10:23 ), not only in the land of Goshen, where most of them dwelt, but in the habitations of those who were dispersed among the Egyptians: for that some of them were thus dispersed appears from the distinction afterwards appointed to be put on their door-posts, Exodus 12:7 ; Exodus 12:7 . This is an instance, (1.) Of the power of God above the ordinary power of nature. We must not think that we share in common mercies as a matter of course, and therefore that we owe no thanks to God for them; he could distinguish, and withhold that from us which he grants to other. He does indeed ordinarily make his sun to shine on the just and unjust; but he could make a difference, and we must own ourselves indebted to his mercy that he does not. (2.) Of the particular favour he bears to his people: they walk in the light when others wander endlessly in thick darkness; wherever there is an Israelite indeed, though in this dark world, there is light, there is a child of light, one for whom light is sown, and whom the day-spring from on high visits. When God made this difference between the Israelites and the Egyptians, who would not have preferred the poorest cottage of an Israelite to the finest palace of an Egyptian? There is still a real difference, though not so discernible a one, between the house of the wicked, which is under a curse, and the habitation of the just, which is blessed, Proverbs 3:33 . We should believe in that difference, and govern ourselves accordingly. Upon Psalms 105:28 , He sent darkness and made it dark, and they rebelled not against his word, some ground a conjecture that, during these three days of darkness, the Israelites were circumcised, in order to their celebrating the passover which was now approaching, and that the command which authorized this was the word against which they rebelled not; for their circumcision, when they entered Canaan, is spoken of as a second general circumcision, Joshua 5:2 . During these three days of darkness to the Egyptians, if God had so pleased, the Israelites, by the light which they had, might have made their escape, and without asking leave of Pharaoh; but God would bring them out with a high hand, and not by stealth, nor in haste, Isaiah 52:12 . II. Here is the impression made upon Pharaoh by this plague, much like that of the foregoing plagues. 1. It awakened him so far that he renewed the treaty with Moses and Aaron, and now, at length, consented that they should take their little ones with them, only he would have their cattle left in pawn, Exodus 10:24 ; Exodus 10:24 . It is common for sinners thus to bargain with God Almighty. Some sins they will leave, but not all; they will leave their sins for a time, but they will not bid them a final farewell; they will allow him some share in their hearts, but the world and the flesh must share with him: thus they mock God, but they deceive themselves. Moses resolves not to abate in his terms: Our cattle shall go with us, Exodus 10:26 ; Exodus 10:26 . Note, The terms of reconciliation are so fixed that though men dispute them ever so long they cannot possibly alter them, nor bring them lower. We must come up to the demands of God's will, for we cannot expect he should condescend to the provisos of our lusts. God's messengers must always be bound up by that rule ( Jeremiah 15:19 ), Let them return unto thee, but return not thou unto them. Moses gives a very good reason why they must take their cattle with them; they must go to do sacrifice, and therefore they must take wherewithal. What numbers and kinds of sacrifices would be required they did not yet know, and therefore they must take all they had. Note, With ourselves, and our children, we must devote all our worldly possessions to the service of God, because we know not what use God will make of what we have, nor in what way we may be called upon to honour God with it. 2. Yet it exasperated him so far that, when he might not make his own terms, he broke off the conference abruptly, and took up a resolution to treat no more. Wrath now came upon him to the utmost, and he became outrageous beyond all bounds, Exodus 10:28 ; Exodus 10:28 . Moses is dismissed in anger, forbidden the court upon pain of death, forbidden so much as to meet Pharaoh any more, as he had been used to do, by the river's side: In that day thou seest my face, thou shalt die. Prodigious madness! Had he not found that Moses could plague him without seeing his face? Or had he forgotten how often he had sent for Moses as his physician to heal him and ease him of his plagues? and must he now be bidden to come near him no more? Impotent malice! To threaten him with death who was armed with such a power, and at whose mercy he had so often laid himself. What will not hardness of heart and contempt of God's word and commandments bring men to? Moses takes him at his word ( Exodus 10:29 ; Exodus 10:29 ): I will see thy face no more, that is, "after this time;" for this conference did not break off till Exodus 11:8 ; Exodus 11:8 , when Moses went out in a great anger, and told Pharaoh how soon he would change his mind, and his proud spirit would come down, which was fulfilled ( Exodus 12:31 ; Exodus 12:31 ), when Pharaoh became a humble supplicant to Moses to depart. So that, after this interview, Moses came no more, till he was sent for. Note, When men drive God's word from them he justly permits their delusions, and answers them according to the multitude of their idols. When the Gadarenes desired Christ to depart, he presently left them. return to ' Top of Page ' Exodus Exo 9 Exodus Exo Exodus Exo 11 Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain and are a derivative of an electronic edition that is available on the Christian Classics Ethereal Library Website.

이 단락에서 우리는 다음을 본다.

I. 이집트에 흑암 재앙이 내리다. 이것은 열 재앙 가운데 특히 두려운 재앙으로, 시편 105:28에 마지막 재앙들 가운데 하나임에도 제일 먼저 언급된다. 또한 영적 이집트의 멸망에서도 다섯 번째 대접이 짐승의 보좌에 쏟아지며 그의 나라가 흑암으로 가득 찬다(요한계시록 16:10). 이 재앙에 대해 특별히 주목할 것들이 있다.

1. 완전한 흑암이었다. 하늘의 빛들이 구름에 가려졌을 뿐 아니라, 그 어둠의 원인인 짙은 증기나 끈끈한 공기 때문에 그들의 불과 초들도 꺼졌을 것이라고 우리는 생각할 이유가 있다. "그들이 서로 보지 못하였다"고 기록되기 때문이다(출애굽기 10:23). 악인에게는 그 불꽃도 빛을 발하지 못하고 그의 장막에도 빛이 어두워질 것이라고 위협받았다(욥기 18:5, 6; 이사야 50:11). 지옥은 완전한 흑암이다. "등불 빛이 결코 다시 네 안에 비치지 않을 것이다"(요한계시록 18:23).

2. 느낄 수 있는 어둠이었다(출애굽기 10:21). 손끝으로 느낄 만큼 안개가 짙었으며, 눈에도 통증이 느껴졌다고 전해진다. 이 어둠의 결과로 큰 고통이 언급된다(요한계시록 16:10).

3. 틀림없이 그들을 놀라게 하고 공포에 떨게 했을 것이다. 메뚜기 떼가 땅을 어둡게 했지만(출애굽기 10:15), 그것은 이 재앙과 비할 수 없었다. 유대인 전통에 따르면, 이 흑암 가운데서 그들은 악령들의 형상을 보거나, 그것들이 내는 무서운 소리와 속삭임에 두려워했다고 한다. 혹은, 더 무섭게는, 자신들의 양심이 그들을 괴롭혔을 것이다. 이것이 시편 78:49에 언급된 재앙일 것으로 보는 학자들도 있다. "그의 진노의 맹렬함과 분노와 노염과 고난을 그들에게 보내시되 악한 천사들을 보내셨으며." 마귀는 그를 따르는 자들에게 처음에는 속이는 자였다가 결국에는 두려움의 대상이 된다.

4. 사흘 동안 계속되었다. 주교 홀의 말에 따르면 여섯 밤이 하나로 합쳐진 것과 같았다. 그들은 어둠의 사슬에 갇혀 있었고, 가장 밝은 궁전도 완벽한 지하 감옥이 되었다. 아무도 자기 자리에서 일어나지 못했다(출애굽기 10:23). 그들은 모두 집에 갇혀 있었다. 영적 어둠은 영적 속박이다. 사탄이 사람들의 눈을 멀게 하여 보지 못하게 하면서 동시에 손발을 묶어 하나님을 위해 일하지 못하고 하늘을 향해 나아가지도 못하게 한다.

5. 하나님께서 이처럼 그들을 벌하신 것은 의로운 일이었다. 바로와 그의 백성은 모세가 전한 하나님의 말씀의 빛을 거슬러 반역했다. 그러므로 그들이 어둠의 형벌을 받는 것은 마땅하다. 그들이 스스로 어둠을 사랑하고 선택했기 때문이다. 이집트 사람들이 자신들의 잔인함으로 이스라엘의 등불을 끄려 했으므로, 하나님께서 그들의 빛들을 꺼버리신 것이 마땅하다. 소돔 사람들의 형벌과 비교하라(창세기 19:11). 죄의 결과들을 두려워하자. 사흘간의 어둠이 이토록 두려웠다면, 영원한 어둠은 어떠하겠는가?

6. 이스라엘 자녀들은 동시에 그들의 거주지에 빛이 있었다(출애굽기 10:23). 대부분이 살던 고센 땅뿐 아니라, 이집트 사람들 사이에 흩어져 살던 자들의 거처에도 빛이 있었다. 그들 중 일부가 이렇게 흩어져 살았음은, 나중에 집 기둥에 표시를 하라는 명령(출애굽기 12:7)에서도 나타난다.

(1) 이것은 자연의 일반적인 능력을 초월하는 하나님의 능력의 증거다. 우리는 공통의 자비들을 당연하게 여기지 말아야 한다. 하나님께서는 구별하실 수 있으며, 다른 사람들에게 허락하는 것을 우리에게 거두실 수 있다. 하나님께서는 의인과 불의한 자 모두에게 해를 비추시지만, 차이를 두실 수 있으며, 그렇게 하지 않으시는 것은 그분의 자비 덕분임을 우리는 감사해야 한다.

(2) 이것은 하나님께서 자기 백성에게 베푸시는 특별한 은총의 증거다. 다른 사람들이 짙은 어둠 속을 헤매는 동안 그들은 빛 가운데 걷는다. 진정한 이스라엘 사람이 있는 곳에는, 이 어두운 세상 가운데서도, 빛이 있고 빛의 자녀가 있으며, 그를 위해 빛이 심겨 있고 높은 곳에서 샛별이 찾아온다. 하나님께서 이스라엘 사람과 이집트 사람 사이에 이런 차이를 두셨을 때, 누가 이집트 최고의 궁전보다 이스라엘의 가장 초라한 오두막을 원하지 않겠는가? 눈에 잘 띄지는 않더라도, 저주 아래 있는 악인의 집과 복을 받은 의인의 거처 사이에는 여전히 실질적인 차이가 있다(잠언 3:33). 우리는 그 차이를 믿고 그에 따라 살아야 한다.

시편 105:28, "그가 어둠을 보내어 어둡게 하셨으니 그들이 그의 말씀을 거역하지 아니하였도다"라는 구절을 근거로, 일부 학자들은 이 사흘간의 흑암 동안 이스라엘 사람들이 다가오는 유월절을 위해 할례를 받았다고 추측한다. 가나안에 들어갈 때의 할례가 두 번째 총할례로 언급되기 때문이다(여호수아 5:2). 이 사흘간의 흑암 동안, 하나님께서 원하셨다면 이스라엘 사람들이 바로의 허락 없이 도망갈 수 있었다. 그러나 하나님께서는 그들을 강한 손으로 이끌어내기를 원하셨고, 몰래 도망치거나 급히 나가게 하지 않으셨다(이사야 52:12).

II. 바로에게 미친 영향. 이전 재앙들과 비슷한 패턴이 나타난다.

1. 재앙이 그를 어느 정도 깨우쳐 모세와 아론과 다시 협상하게 만들었다. 이번에는 마침내 어린 자녀들도 함께 가는 것을 허락하되, 가축은 담보로 남겨두기를 원했다(출애굽기 10:24). 죄인들이 전능하신 하나님과 이렇게 흥정하는 것은 흔한 일이다. 어떤 죄는 버리겠지만 전부는 아니라는 것이다. 모세는 자신의 조건에서 물러서기를 단호히 거부한다. "우리의 가축도 우리와 함께 가야 합니다"(출애굽기 10:26). 화해의 조건은 너무나 확고하여 사람들이 아무리 다투어도 낮출 수 없다. 우리가 하나님의 뜻의 요구에 맞추어야 하지, 하나님께서 우리의 정욕의 조건에 굽히시기를 기대할 수 없다. 하나님의 사신들은 항상 이 규칙에 따라야 한다(예레미야 15:19). "그들이 네게로 돌아오게 하고, 너는 그들에게로 돌아가지 말라." 모세는 왜 가축을 함께 가져가야 하는지 매우 합당한 이유를 제시한다. 그들은 제사를 드리러 가야 하므로 제물이 필요하다. 얼마나 많은, 어떤 종류의 제물이 필요한지 아직 알 수 없으므로, 가진 것을 모두 가져가야 한다. 우리 자신과 자녀들뿐 아니라 세상의 모든 소유를 하나님의 섬김에 바쳐야 한다. 하나님께서 우리 것을 어떻게 사용하실지, 어떤 방식으로 영화롭게 하라 부르실지 모르기 때문이다.

2. 그럼에도 재앙이 그를 격분시켜, 자신의 뜻대로 조건을 정할 수 없게 되자 협상을 갑자기 끊어 버리고 더 이상 협상하지 않겠다고 결심했다. 분노가 극에 달해 폭발하고 말았다(출애굽기 10:28). 모세는 격분한 바로에게서 쫓겨났다. 왕궁 출입을 금지당했고, 심지어 바로를 만나는 것도 금지되었다. "네가 내 얼굴을 다시 보는 날에는 죽으리라." 이 얼마나 엄청난 광기인가! 모세가 자신의 얼굴을 보지 않고도 재앙을 내릴 수 있다는 것을 몰랐는가? 아니면 자신이 얼마나 자주 모세를 의사처럼 불러 재앙에서 고쳐달라고 부탁했는지 잊었는가? 이렇게 놀라운 능력으로 무장한 사람을 죽이겠다고 위협하다니! 마음의 완고함과 하나님의 말씀과 계명에 대한 멸시가 사람을 어디까지 이르게 하는가?

모세는 그의 말을 그대로 받아들인다(출애굽기 10:29). "내가 다시는 당신 얼굴을 보지 않겠습니다." 이 회의는 출애굽기 11:8에서야 끝났는데, 그때 모세는 대단히 분개하여 나가면서, 바로의 마음이 곧 바뀌어 교만한 정신이 낮아질 것을 예고했다. 이것은 출애굽기 12:31에 성취되었다. 바로가 자신을 낮추고 모세에게 떠나달라고 간청했기 때문이다. 그래서 이 면담 이후로, 모세는 다시 부름을 받을 때까지 더 이상 나아가지 않았다. 하나님의 말씀을 내쫓는 자들에게는, 하나님께서 의롭게도 그들을 미혹 가운데 내버려 두신다.
