How preachers through history handled this text
8 public-domain excerpts on Exodus 6, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“Much ado there was to bring Moses to his work, and when the ice was broken, some difficulty having occurred in carrying it on, there was no less ado to put him forward in it. Witness this chapter, in which, I. God satisfies Moses himself in an answer to his complaints in the close of the foregoing chapter, ver. 1. II. He gives him fuller instructions than had yet been given him what to say to the children of Israel, for their satisfaction (ver. 2-8), but to little purpose, ver. 9. III. He sends him again to Pharaoh, ver. 10, 11. …”
— Matthew Henry, Commentary on the Whole Bible, Vol. 1 (Genesis to Deuteronomy), on Exodus 6:1–35 (Public Domain)
