Context — The Second Plague: Frogs
11The frogs will depart from you and your houses and your officials and your people; they will remain only in the Nile.”
12After Moses and Aaron had left Pharaoh, Moses cried out to the LORD for help with the frogs that He had brought against Pharaoh.
13And the LORD did as Moses requested, and the frogs in the houses, the courtyards, and the fields died.
14They were piled into countless heaps, and there was a terrible stench in the land. 15When Pharaoh saw that there was relief, however, he hardened his heart and would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.Cross References

Exodus 8:13 Summary
This verse, Exodus 8:13, shows us that God answered Moses' prayer and made the frogs die, which was a miracle. It teaches us that God is powerful and can do anything, like He says in Jeremiah 32:17. Just like Moses, we can pray to God and trust that He will answer us, as promised in Matthew 7:7-8. We can also learn from Pharaoh's mistake and make sure our hearts are soft and open to God, not hard and resistant to His will, as warned in Hebrews 3:7-8.

And the Lord did according to the word of Moses,.... He heard his prayers, and fulfilled what he had promised Pharaoh: and the frogs died out of the houses, and out of the villages, and out of the
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Exodus 8:13
And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields. And the Lord did according to the word of Moses. The plague was stayed.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Exodus 8:13
A short speech for they died and were removed out of, &c, as appears from the next verse; it being frequent in the Hebrew tongue under one verb expressed to understand another agreeable to it. See examples in the Hebrew, ,34 Exodus 18:12 25:2 .
Trapp's Commentary on Exodus 8:13
Exodus 8:13 And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.Ver. 13. According to the word.] Iste vir potuit apud Deum quod voluit. Moses might do what he would with God, as one said of Luther.
Ellicott's Commentary on Exodus 8:13
(13, 14) The frogs died.—God, who knew the heart of Pharaoh, and its insincerity, or at any rate its changefulness, took the plague of frogs away in a manner that made its removal almost as bad as its continuance. The frogs did not return into the river; neither were they devoured by flights of cranes or ibises. They simply died—died where they were—in thousands and tens of thousands, so that they had to be “gathered upon heaps.” And “the land stank.” In the great plague of frogs mentioned by Eustathius (see the comment on Exodus 8:1-4) it was the stench of the frogs after they were dead which caused the people to quit their country.
Cambridge Bible on Exodus 8:13
