ترس موسی از چه بود؟

ترس خفیفی که موسی(ع) در دل احساس کرد از صحنةٌ ترسناکی که ساحران ایجاد کرده بودندء نبود؛ بلکه از این بیم داشت که نکند مردم تحت تأثیر آن صحنه واقع شوند؛ آن‌چنان که بازگرداندن آنها آسان نباشد؛ یا این که پیش از آن‌که موسی مجال نشان دادن معجزة خود را بیایده جمعی صحنه را ترک گویند یا از صحنه بیرونشان کنند و حق آشکار نگردد.
