And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, etc.] Into the field, where, being retired from company, he could freely, and without being disturbed, pray unto God: and spread abroad his hands unto the Lord; denoting the spreading of cases before God, and expectation, hope, and readiness to receive favours from him: and the thunder and hail ceased; immediately upon the entreaty of Moses; see the power and prevalence of prayer: a like instance we have in Elijah, (<590517>James 5:17,18) and the rain was not poured upon the earth; so that there was rain as well as hail, which was restrained and entirely ceased.
