Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 13. - And he hardened Pharaoh's heart. Rather, "But Pharaoh's heart was hard." The verb employed is not active, but neuter; and "his heart" is not the accusative, but the nominative. Pharaoh's heart was too hard for the sign to make much impression on it. He did not see that Moses had done much more than his own magicians could do. As the Lord had said. See ver. 4. CHAPTER 7:14-21

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(13) He hardened Pharaoh's heart.--This is a mis-translation. The verb is intransitive, and "Pharaoh's heart" is its nominative case. Translate, "Pharaoh's heart hardened itself." It is essential to the idea of a final penal hardening that in the earlier stages Pharaoh should have been left to himself.That he hearkened not.--Heb., and he hearkened not.As the Lord had said.--See above, Exodus 3:19; Exodus 7:4
