Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 22. - I will sever in that day the land of Goshen. On the position of the land of Goshen, see the Excursus on the Geography. The "severance" is a new feature, and one distinguishing the later from the earlier plagues. It was an additional mark of the miraculous character of the visitations, well calculated to impress all thoughtful and honest minds. By all such it would be seen that the God who could make this severance was no local God of the Hebrews only, but one whose power extended over the whole earth.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(22) I will sever in that day the land of Goshen.--This was a new feature, and one calculated to make a deep impression both on king and people. The "land of Goshen" can only have been some portion of the Eastern Delta, a tract in unwise different from the rest of Egypt--low, flat, well-watered, fertile. Nature had put no severance between it and the regions where the Egyptians dwelt; so the severance to be made would be a manifest miracle.
