Exodus 6:1
Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.
Then the Lord said unto Moses,.... In answer to the questions put to him, and the expostulations made with him:
Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: in inflicting punishments on him: for with a strong hand shall he let them go; being forced to it by the mighty hand of God upon him; and it is by some rendered, "because of a strong hand" {s}; so Jarchi; for this is not to be understood of the hand of Pharaoh, but of the hand of God:
and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land: not only be willing that they should go, but be urgent upon them to be gone,
{s} hqzx dyb "propter manum validam"; so some in Drusius.
