He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal craftily with his servants.
All Commentaries on Psalms 105:25 Go To Psalms 105

AD 1849
He turned their heart Not that God (who is never the author of sin) moved the Egyptians to hate and persecute his people; but that the Egyptians took occasion of hating and envying them, from the sight of the benefits which God bestowed upon them. (Challoner) (St. Augustine)
He permitted the malice of the Egyptians, (Theodoret) and employed them to chastise his people, who had adored idols. (Eusebius) (Acts vii. 43.) Felix, Protestants, translate the Hebrew, "their heart was turned. "(Berthier)
The perversity of the Egyptians came from themselves, though it was turned to a good account. (Worthington)
