Exodus 9:6

And the Lord did this ¹  on the next day; ²  all ³  the livestock of the Egyptians ⁴  died, but of the Israelites’ livestock not one died.

Ex 9:19,25; Ps 78:48,50

¹ tn Heb “this thing.”

² tn Heb “on the morrow.”

³ tn The word “all” clearly does not mean “all” in the exclusive sense, because subsequent plagues involve cattle. The word must denote such a large number that whatever was left was insignificant for the economy. It could also be taken to mean “all [kinds of] livestock died.”

⁴ tn Heb “of Egypt.” The place is put by metonymy for the inhabitants.
