And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
God chose contemptible frogs to strike down a haughty king, magnifying His power over all creation and humbling Pharaoh's pride. What a mortification for a monarch to be forced to his knees by creatures a child can master, yet whose numbers made all his chariots and horsemen helpless.

Commenting on Exodus 8:1-15
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron,.... He sent for them: and said, entreat the Lord, that he may take away the frogs from me and from my people; he begins now to know the Lord, whom he knew not before, by the judgments he executed on him, to acknowledge his hand in those judgments, and tacitly to own that none else could remove them...
the magicians did so with their enchantments--required no great art to make the offensive reptiles appear on any small spot of ground. What they undertook to do already existed in abundance all around. They would better have shown their power by removing the frogs.
