Context — The Seventh Plague: Hail
22Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that hail may fall on all the land of Egypt—on man and beast and every plant of the field throughout the land of Egypt.”
23So Moses stretched out his staff toward heaven, and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and lightning struck the earth. So the LORD rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.
24The hail fell and the lightning continued flashing through it. The hail was so severe that nothing like it had ever been seen in all the land of Egypt from the time it became a nation.
25Throughout the land of Egypt, the hail struck down everything in the field, both man and beast; it beat down every plant of the field and stripped every tree. 26The only place where it did not hail was in the land of Goshen, where the Israelites lived.Cross References

Exodus 9:24 Summary
Exodus 9:24 describes a severe hail storm that God sent upon Egypt as a judgment for not letting the Israelites go. This storm, with its powerful hail and lightning, was unlike anything Egypt had ever seen before, demonstrating God's mighty power and authority (as also seen in Psalms 135:7). The hail storm was a warning to Pharaoh to obey God's commands, and it serves as a reminder to us today of God's power and sovereignty (Romans 9:17). By reflecting on this verse, we can gain a deeper understanding of God's character and His desire for us to trust and obey Him.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of the hail and lightning in Exodus 9:24?
The hail and lightning represent God's judgment and power, as seen in other passages like Psalms 29:7, which describes God's voice as lightning, and Isaiah 30:30, which mentions God's voice as thunder and hail.
Why was the hail so severe in Exodus 9:24?
The hail was severe because it was a demonstration of God's mighty power and a warning to Pharaoh to let the Israelites go, as stated in Exodus 9:13-17, where God says He will send all His plagues on Egypt if Pharaoh does not comply.
What is the meaning of 'nothing like it had ever been seen' in Exodus 9:24?
This phrase emphasizes the unprecedented nature of the hail, highlighting God's unique and unparalleled power, similar to what is described in Exodus 10:6, where it says that if Pharaoh does not let the Israelites go, God will fill his houses with swarms of insects, which has never happened before.
How does Exodus 9:24 relate to the rest of the biblical narrative?
Exodus 9:24 is part of the larger story of God's redemption of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, as seen in Exodus 6:6, where God promises to rescue the Israelites with His outstretched arm and mighty acts of judgment.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I can reflect on God's power and judgment in my own life, as seen in Exodus 9:24?
- How can I apply the lesson of Pharaoh's hardness of heart to my own life and relationship with God, in light of Exodus 9:24?
- What are some 'hail storms' in my life that God may be using to get my attention and bring me closer to Him, as seen in the context of Exodus 9:24?
- How can I trust in God's sovereignty and power, even when I face challenging circumstances, as described in Exodus 9:24?

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Exodus 9:24
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.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Exodus 9:24
Which strange mixture much increased the miracle. That hail and rain did sometimes, though but seldom, fall in Egypt, is attested by divers eye-witnesses.
Trapp's Commentary on Exodus 9:24
Exodus 9:24 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.Ver. 24e. So there was hail, and fire mingled.] A strange mixture; a miracle within a miracle, saith Rub. Solomon. Fire and water made a peace betwixt themselves, that they might obey the will of their Creator.
Ellicott's Commentary on Exodus 9:24
(24) Fire mingled with the hail.—Heb., a fire infolding itself in the midst of the hail. (Comp. Ezekiel 1:4; and see the comment on Exodus 9:23.)
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Exodus 9:24
Verse 24. Hail, and fire mingled with the hail] It is generally allowed that the electric fluid is essential to the formation of hail. On this occasion it was supplied in a supernatural abundance; for streams of fire seem to have accompanied the descending hail, so that herbs and trees, beasts and men, were all destroyed by them.
Cambridge Bible on Exodus 9:24
24. fire mingled with the hail] lit. ‘fire taking hold of itself in the midst of the hail,’ i.e. forming a continuous stream in it, paraphrased on the marg. by flashing continually amidst. The same expression recurs in Ezekiel 1:4 ‘a great cloud, with a fire taking hold of itself’ (AV., RV. infolding itself; RVm. Or, flashing continually). very grievous, &c.] as v. 18.
