Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

_ _ Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, etc. — It is to be presumed that Pharaoh had demanded a proof of their divine mission.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Exodus 7:8-13.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Exodus 7:10

And Aaron cast his rod down, and it became a serpent — This was proper not only to affect Pharaoh with wonder, but to strike a terror upon him. This first miracle, though it was not a plague, yet amounted to the threatening of a plague; if it made not Pharaoh feel, it made him fear; this is God's method of dealing with sinners he comes upon them gradually.
