R. Driver ( Exodus , 68) suggests reading with the LXX, Smr, and Peshitta; this would call for adding a conjunction before the last clause to make it read, “into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Egypt; and the land was…” tn The Hebrew word תִּשָּׁחֵת ( tishakhet ) is a strong word; it is the Niphal imperfect of שָׁחַת ( shakhat ) and is translated “ruined.” If the classification as imperfect stands, then it would have to be something like a progressive imperfect (the land was being ruined); otherwise, it may simply be a preterite without the vav ( ו ) consecutive. The verb describes utter devastation. This is the verb that is used in Gen 13:10 to describe how Yahweh destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. Swarms of flies would disrupt life, contaminate everything, and bring disease.","source_note_position":5,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Exodus%208%3A24/5"}
