Exodus12:33
33 And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste: for they said, We be all dead men.
Not by force, which they durst not now use, but by earnest and importunate intreaties, Exod. 11. 8. This was the ground of that fable of the heathens mentioned in Tacitus, that the Iews were driven out of Egypt for their Scabs: so they falsly and maliciously ascribed their own ulcers and scabs sent upon them by God to the Israelites.
