Contextual Overview
20 The Lord said to Moses: Early tomorrow morning, while the king is on his way to the river, go and say to him, "The Lord commands you to let his people go, so they can worship him. 21 If you don't, he will send swarms of flies to attack you, your officials, and every citizen of your country. Houses will be full of flies, and the ground will crawl with them. 22"The Lord 's people in Goshen won't be bothered by flies, but your people in the rest of the country will be tormented by them.

Moses replied. "Any sacrifices we offer to the Lord our God would disgust the Egyptians, and they would stone us to death. 27 No indeed!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will put a division between my people and thy people,.... Or, a "redemption" p; for by distinguishing them in his providence from the Egyptians, he might be said to redeem or deliver them; thus God makes a difference between his chosen people and the rest of the world, through his Son's redemption of them by his blood, out of every kindred, tongue, people, and nation:
tomorrow shall this sign be: which, according to Bishop Usher, must be the twenty nineth day of Adar or February.
