Matthew Poole and continuators on Exodus 11:4

4 And Moses said , Thus saith the LORD, About Midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt.

To Pharaoh, before his departure, as appears by comparing ver. 8. with chap. 10. 29. And therefore the three first verses of this chapter come in by way of parenthesis, and now he returns to the story, and sets down the last words which Moses spake to Pharaoh for a final parting.

God is said to go out or go forth, or come down, &c. by way of condescension to the custom and capacity of men, when he doth any eminent act of power either in way of Justice or mercy.
