Midrash BeChiddush

צְפַרְדֵּעַ Tzfardia, “Frogs” This is the second plague.
1. אַפּ֗ו “His Anger” (Ps. 78:49) - As a result of God’s anger, they had no place for the people to stand, as it states, "But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief.” (Ex. 8:11) If Moses had not prayed for the frogs to die, they would have no space. They were exceedingly cramped (by the frogs) so when (Moses prayed) and Pharaoh saw that there was room, he initially softened and decided to obey God’s command.
