Exodus 8:6

8:6 So Aaron extended his hand over the waters of Egypt, and frogs 1  came up and covered the land of Egypt.

Exodus 15:10

15:10 But 2  you blew with your breath, and 3  the sea covered them.

They sank 4  like lead in the mighty waters.

1 tn The noun is singular, a collective. B. Jacob notes that this would be the more natural way to refer to the frogs (Exodus, 260).

2 tn “But” has been supplied here.

3 tn Here “and” has been supplied.

4 tn The verb may have the idea of sinking with a gurgling sound, like water going into a whirlpool (R. A. Cole, Exodus [TOTC], 124; S. R. Driver, Exodus, 136). See F. M. Cross and D. N. Freedman, “The Song of Miriam,” JNES 14 (1955): 243-47.
