Context — Moses at the Burning Bush

18The elders of Israel will listen to what you say, and you must go with them to the king of Egypt and tell him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Now please let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness, so that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.’ 19But I know that the king of Egypt will not allow you to go unless a mighty hand compels him.

20So I will stretch out My hand and strike the Egyptians with all the wonders I will perform among them. And after that, he will release you.

21And I will grant this people such favor in the sight of the Egyptians that when you leave, you will not go away empty-handed. 22Every woman shall ask her neighbor and any woman staying in her house for silver and gold jewelry and clothing, and you will put them on your sons and daughters. So you will plunder the Egyptians.”

Exodus 3:20 Summary

[Exodus 3:20 shows us that God is a powerful and loving God who wants to free His people from slavery and oppression, just like He did for the Israelites (as seen in Exodus 6:6-8). When God 'stretches out His hand', it means He is taking action to help His people, and we can trust in His power and love (as seen in Psalm 118:16 and Isaiah 44:24). This verse reminds us that God is in control, even when things seem impossible, and that He will work everything out for our good (as seen in Romans 8:28 and Jeremiah 29:11).]

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean for God to 'stretch out His hand' in Exodus 3:20?

This phrase is a figure of speech indicating God's powerful intervention, similar to what we see in Isaiah 44:24, where God says He stretches out the heavens alone.

Why did God need to strike the Egyptians with wonders for them to release the Israelites?

The Egyptians were stubborn and unwilling to let the Israelites go, as seen in Exodus 3:19, so God's wonders were necessary to demonstrate His power and compel the Egyptians to release them, much like the plagues in Exodus 7-12.

What is the significance of the phrase 'after that, he will release you' in Exodus 3:20?

This phrase indicates that God's actions will directly lead to the release of the Israelites, demonstrating His control over the situation and His faithfulness to His promises, as seen in Exodus 6:6-8.

How does Exodus 3:20 relate to the broader story of the Exodus?

Exodus 3:20 sets the stage for the miraculous events that will unfold in the following chapters, including the ten plagues and the parting of the Red Sea, all of which demonstrate God's power and love for His people, as seen in Deuteronomy 4:34 and Psalm 78:43-51.

Reflection Questions

What are some ways I can trust in God's power and intervention in my own life, just as the Israelites were called to trust in Exodus 3:20?
How have I experienced God's 'mighty hand' in my life, and what did I learn from those experiences?
In what ways can I be a part of demonstrating God's power and love to those around me, just as Moses was called to do in Exodus 3:20?
What are some 'wonders' or miracles that God has performed in my life, and how have they shaped my faith and trust in Him?

Trapp's Commentary on Exodus 3:20

And after that he will let you go.] When he dare hold you no longer; when I have sufficiently tamed him and taught him, as Gideon "taught the men of Succoth with thorns and briers of the wilderness."

Ellicott's Commentary on Exodus 3:20

(20) I will stretch out my hand.—Hands are stretched out to help and save. God promises here more than He had promised before (Exodus 3:12). He shows how He will “be with” Moses. He will lend him miraculous aid, performing in his behalf “all his wonders,” and with them “smiting the Egyptians.”
