Psalms 105:32
He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.
BSB
ASV
He gave them hail for rain, And flaming fire in their land.
KJV
He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
He gave them hail for rain,.... Egypt, at least part of it, was not used to rain, but was watered by the overflowings of the Nile; but now it had hail for rain, and a grievous hail storm it was, such as was never seen in the land of Egypt before; hail being rare, if ever there, and so frost and snow (a); this was the seventh plague, Exo 9:18, compare with this the terrible storm of hail which will fall on men at the pouring out of the seventh vial on spiritual Egypt, Rev 16:
Or, rather, the "darkness" here is figurative (Jer 13:16), the literal plague of darkness (Ex 10:22, 23) being only alluded to as the symbol of God's wrath which overhung Egypt as a dark cloud during all the plagues. Hence, it is placed first, out of the historical order. Thus, "They rebelled not (that is, no longer) against His word," refers to the Egyptians.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
