Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 14. - And also that nation (the name of which he does not reveal, in case of seeming to interfere with the free volition of his creatures, who, while accomplishing his high designs and secret purposes, are ever conscious of their moral freedom), whom they shall serve, will I judge: - i.e. punish after judging, which prediction was in due course fulfilled (Exodus 6:11) - and afterward shall they come out with great substance - recush (cf. Genesis 13:6; vide Exodus 12:36).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) That nation.--Had it been expressly revealed that the country that would afflict them was Egypt, the patriarchs might have been unwilling to go thither; but the reference to the plagues in the denunciation of judgment, and to the spoiling of the Egyptians in the promise that they should "come out with great substance" (Exodus 12:36), gave detail sufficient for future guidance, and for their assurance in time to come that the promise had been fulfilled.
