Cette même verge, tu l’auras à la main, car c’est par elle que tu opéreras les miracles."

בלכתך לשוב מצרימה וגו'. דע, שעל מנת כן תלך, שתהא גבור בשליחותי לעשות כל מופתי לפני פרעה ולא תירא ממנו:
אשר שמתי בידך. לא על שלשה אותות האמורות למעלה, שהרי לא לפני פרעה צוה לעשותם אלא לפני ישראל שיאמינו לו, ולא מצינו שעשאם לפניו, אלא מופתים שאני עתיד לשום בידך במצרים, כמו כִּי יְדַבֵּר אֲלֵכֶם פַּרְעֹה וגו' (שמות ז, ט), ואל תתמה על אשר כתיב אשר שמתי, שכן משמעו, כשתדבר עמו כבר שַׂמְתִּים בידך:

AND THE ETERNAL SAID UNTO MOSES: ‘WHEN THOU GOEST BACK INTO EGYPT SEE ALL THE WONDERS,’ etc. Rabbi Abraham ibn Ezra said that this was said to Moses when he was yet in Midian. G-d informed him that He would harden Pharaoh’s heart and he would not let the people go because of all the wonders which he would see until the last wonder. Ibn Ezra’s intent is thus to explain this verse as saying: “See that for all the wonders which I have put in thy hand and which you will do before Pharaoh, for all of these he will not let them go until you will tell him that I will slay his son, his firstborn. Then he will let them go.”
This explanation is not correct for what sense is there for the expression, when thou goest back into Egypt, see, etc.? Rather, the purport thereof is as follows: When leaving Midian, Moses took the rod of G-d in his hand to mark the way with his footsteps. G-d forewarned him and said to him, “When you go on the way, mark well and behold that all the wonders which I have put in your hand you should do before Pharaoh; do not forget to do anything before him. And I will harden his heart, but do not despair from doing them because of his obstinacy, and you will yet warn him again on the last plague which will cause him to let them go.” The purport of the expression, I have put in thy hand, is that “in your hand I have put them; you are to do them, and not someone else.” He had already informed him that He would perform many signs and wonders in Pharaoh’s midst, as He said, with all My wonders which I will do in his midst. All this was an encouragement to Moses, for since he was forced to go on the mission, G-d warned him before the action, and commanded him again at the time of the action before each and every wonder.
It is possible that the expression [concerning the smiting of his firstborn], and thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, is but to inform Moses now that in the end He will so command him to say it to Pharaoh. Thus the purport of His words is as follows: “I will harden his heart and he will not let the people go in spite of all the wonders, and thou shalt say to him on that day, ‘Behold I will slay thy son, thy firstborn,’ and then he will let them go.” We do not find that He informed Moses of the death of their firstborn except at this time, and thus [we must say] that not all of the Divine communication [here given to Moses was relayed to Pharaoh] …

בלכתך לשוב מצרימה, every time I tell you to leave your tent which is outside the boundary of the Egyptian capital, etc., do precisely what I command you. The nature of the capital, with all its abominations prevented prayer offered in that city to G’d to become effective, as we know from 9,29 where Moses explains this to Pharaoh. G’d says: “I will command you from time to time to enter the capital in order to speak to Pharaoh.”
ראה כל המופתים אשר שמתי בידך, pay careful attention each time you go to Pharaoh when you will be equipped with the power to perform all the miracles which I have placed at your disposal. You must perform these in exactly the manner I have instructed you.
ועשיתם לפני פרעה, you will be successful in this only if you proceed exactly in the manner in which I instruct you, and in the presence of Pharaoh. When a creature sins against his Creator by doing either less or more than instructed to do, he will fail in what he set out to do. This rule did not only apply to Moses and Aaron when they set out to perform miracles, but it is a general rule applicable to all of G’d’s commandments, and this is why the Torah spelled this out in Deuteronomy 4,2 writing “do not add or subtract from all the commandments which I have commanded you.”
ואני אחזק את לבו, for if he could not endure the plagues he would let the Israelites go, not because he was finally humbling himself before the Lord and do His will, but only in order to get relief from the plagues. This was not a good enough reason to grant him relief; therefore G’d reinforced his natural obstinacy.
