8:8-11
Pharaoh was fed up with all the frogs, understandably so, especially if his magicians had actually produced more of the things! So Pharaoh asks Moses to plead with the Lord to take the frogs away. Moses asks when he wants him to do this. One might have thought that “at once” would have been Pharaoh’s reply, but instead he said tomorrow!
8:12-15
So Moses and Aaron left and went to plead with the Lord. The Lord answered Moses’ prayer and all the frogs died. The Egyptians gathered the dead frogs and heaped them up in piles. This of course meant that all the dead frogs started to produce a tremendous stink. As soon as Pharaoh saw that the immediate problem was over he hardened his heart and refused to let the people go. This was just as the Lord had said it would happen.
