Matthew Poole and continuators on Exodus 10:10

10 And he said unto them, Let the LORD be so with you, as I will let you go , and your little ones. Look to it, for evil is before you .

I wish God may be no more ready and willing to be with you and to do you good than I am willing to let you go.

Either 1. Evil of sin. You have some ill design against me, either to stir up Sedition or War against me, or utterly to depart out of my Kingdom. Or rather 2. Evil of calamity or mischief. 1. Because it is here said to be before their faces, whereas evil designs are in mens hearts, and the fair pretences wherewith they cover them are said to be before their faces. 2. The word of caution he gives to them, look to it or take [illegible: 1+ letters]eed, seems to imply that he speaks not of the evil they designed against Pharaoh, but of that which they would unavoidably bring upon themselves from so potent a King, by the refusal of such fair offers and continuing in such insolent and unreasonable demands.
