Exodus 10:7 And Pharaoh's servants said to him, How long shall this man be a snare to us? let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God… "Knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?" was the plea of Pharaoh's servants before the locusts came. No; he knew it not; he would not know it. Even now, with the scene of utter desolation everywhere around him, with the fields scorched and barren, and the naked trees stretching out their white and shattered boughs like ghastly skeletons, with even the walls of his houses and the furniture of his chambers marked by the gnawings of those "very grievous locusts," with all these terrible witnesses before his eyes, Pharaoh knew it not. (T. S. Millington.)
