Exodus9:8
8 And the Lord said unto Moses, and unto Aaron, Take to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace , and let Moses sprinkle it towards the heaven, in the sight of Pharaoh.
To mind them of their cruel usage of the Israelites in their furnace, of which see Deut. 4. 20. Ier. 11. 4.
Both were to take them up, but M[illegible: 1+ letters]ses onely to sprinkle them, as at other times Aaron onely did the work, to shew that they were but instruments, which God could use as he pleased, and God was the principal Authour of it.
