Genesis 12:17

Context

12:17 But the Lord struck Pharaoh and his household with severe diseases 1  because of Sarai, Abram’s wife.

1 tn The cognate accusative adds emphasis to the verbal sentence: “he plagued with great plagues,” meaning the Lord inflicted numerous plagues, probably diseases (see Exod 15:26). The adjective “great” emphasizes that the plagues were severe and overwhelming.
