Contextual Overview

5 The Lord is much greater than any other god. 6 He does as he chooses in heaven and on earth and deep in the sea. 7 The Lord makes the clouds rise from far across the earth, and he makes lightning to go with the rain. Then from his secret place he sends out the wind. 8 The Lord killed the first-born of people and animals in the land of Egypt. 9 God used miracles and wonders to fight the king of Egypt and all of his officials. 10 He destroyed many nations and killed powerful kings, 11 including King Sihon of the Amorites and King Og of Bashan. He conquered every kingdom in the land of Canaan 12 and gave their property to his people Israel. 13 The name of the Lord will be remembered forever, and he will be famous for all time to come. 14 The Lord will bring justice and show mercy to all who serve him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

[Who] sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt,.... Or, "signs and wonders". Meaning the other extraordinary plagues sent among the Egyptians, before that of slaying their firstborn; and which have some likeness to the vials of God's wrath, which will be poured out on the city called spiritually Sodom and Egypt,

Revelation 11:8;

upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants: his courtiers: some of them are particularly observed to affect him and his court; as the plagues of the frogs, and slaying the firstborn: and he and his princes must be more or less affected with them all, as well as the common people; who were an emblem either of Satan and his principalities, as Jerom interprets it; or rather of antichrist and his followers; to whom the tokens of God's wrath and displeasure will be sent in a wonderful way and manner.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Who sent tokens and wonders - Tokens: that is, signs or evidences of the divine power. Wonders: things suited to impress the mind with awe; things outside of the ordinary course of events; things not produced by natural laws, but by the direct power of God. The allusion here is, of course, to the plagues of Egypt, as recorded in Exodus. See the notes at Psalms 105:27-36.
