John Trapp on Nehemiah 9:10

Verſe 10. And ſhewedſt ſignes and wonders upon Pharaoh] That ſturdy Rebel, whom neither Miniſtery, nor miſery, nor miracle, nor mercy could poſſibly mollifie. This was worſe then any or all thoſe ten plagues ſent upon him, whereof ſee Exod. 3.19. with the Note.

For thou kneweſt that they dealt proudly, &c.] This the juſt and jealous God could not away with, Exod. 18.11. His work in Heaven is (ſaid that Heathen) to caſt downe the lofty, [non-Latin text not transcribed], &c. Aeſop. Chiloni. and to lift up the lowly.

So didſt thou get thee a name] i. e. A great fame of thy power and juſtice, to the converſion of ſome (as Jethro, Exod. 18.1.) and conviction of others, as Deut. 32.31. Joſh. 2.10. 1 Sam. 4.8.
