the meaning of the 10 plagues of egypt
Plagues of Egypt The plagues served to contrast the power of the God of Israel with the Egyptian gods, invalidating them.[1] Some commentators have associated several of the plagues with judgment on specific gods associated with the Nile, fertility and natural phenomena.[2] According to Exodus 12:12, all the gods of Egypt would be judged through the tenth and final plague: "On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn of both people and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD."
