THE BOOK
OF EXODUS
CHAPTER 9
THE BIBLICAL PLAGUES WARNING
THE PLAGUES OF EGYPT BIBLE STORY EXPLAINED
Daily Bread is so happy you're back for our
study of the book of Exodus. Our last couple of stories have been about the
plagues that God has brought on Pharaoh and Egypt because Pharaoh would not
free the children of Israel from slavery.
Moses, although his confidence was a
little shaky at first, has gained faith with God's hand helping him. Egypt
has had their water turned to blood, frogs, lice and swarms of flies to deal
with, and Pharaoh still refused to let the people go.
The Lord told Moses, Go talk to
Pharaoh and tell him, The Lord God of the Hebrews says, Let my people go so
they can serve me. If you don't let them go, tomorrow I will strike your
cattle, your horses, your mules, camels, oxen and sheep. There will be a
very terrible disease that kills them, but the cattle of my people will not
suffer. Not a one of their animals will die. Notice that God set appointed
times for the plagues so there was no doubt as to who was causing them.
The next day, all the cattle of Egypt
died, but of the cattle of the children of Israel, not a single one died.
Pharaoh still wouldn't let them go.
THE BIBLICAL PLAGUES PUNISHMENT
THE PLAGUES OF EGYPT BIBLE STORY ONE AT A TIME
The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, Take
handfuls of ashes from the furnace and let Moses sprinkle it toward the
heaven so that Pharaoh can see you. It will become small dust in all the
land of Egypt and will cause boils to break out with blisters on man and
beast in all the land of Egypt.
When Moses did this, Pharaoh's
magicians couldn't even try their magic in front of Moses because they were
covered with boils. The Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart and he didn't listen,
just as He had said to Moses.
Let's talk about these magicians, shall we? These weren't magicians
like the ones at a child's birthday party, in fact, Paul likens them to men
with reprobate minds:
|
2 Timothy 3:8
Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the
truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. |
THE BIBLICAL PLAGUES CONTINUE
THE PLAGUES OF EGYPT BIBLE STORY WORSENS
When trying to apply how this story could possibly have anything to do with us, as Christians today, the End Times immediately comes to mind, when the false
prophet deceives those who are still on earth.
|
Revelation 13:13-14
And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from
heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the
earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the
sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they
should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and
did live. |
So don't be deceived by diviners or necromancers or fortune tellers or
anything of the sort!
Then the Lord said to Moses, Get up
early in the morning and go to Pharaoh and tell him, The Lord God of the
Hebrews says, Let my people go so that they may serve me. This time I will
send all my plagues on your heart and on your servants and on your people so
you will know that there is none like me in all the earth. This time I will
strike you and your people with plagues and you will be cut off from the
earth. This is the reason you are here, so that I can show my power and
that my name may be declared throughout all the earth. And you still think
you're better than my people and won't let them go? Tomorrow at about this
time I will make it rain a terrible hail, like Egypt has never seen from the
beginning until now.
THE BIBLICAL PLAGUES DANGERS
THE PLAGUES OF EGYPT BIBLE STORY CONCERNS
Pharaoh's people who feared the Word
of the Lord became very afraid and even brought their servants into their houses and whoever didn't
regard the Lord's warning, left their servants out in the fields in defiance.
The Lord told Moses to stretch out his
hand toward Heaven as to bring hail to all the land of Egypt. Moses stretched
out his staff toward Heaven and the Lord sent thunder and hail and fire ran
along on the ground in the land of Egypt unlike Egypt had ever seen since it
became a nation. The hail was so heavy that the plants and trees were all
broken and the only thing that remained was the wheat and the rye that had
not grown up yet. Only in the land of Goshen where the children of Israel
were, there was no hail or fire.
This gave Pharaoh a little bit of a
scare and he called for Moses and Aaron and said, I have sinned this time.
The Lord is righteous and I and my people are wicked. Pray to the Lord that
there be no more thunder and hail and I'll let you go. Well, Moses had
heard that song before and he said to Pharaoh, As soon as I'm outside the
city, I'll open my hands to the Lord and the thunder and hail will stop so
that you'll know that the earth belongs to God. But as for you and your
servants, I know you don't fear the Lord yet. You can well imagine that
Moses wasn't slow of speech when he said that!
When Pharaoh saw that the thunder and
hail and fire had stopped, he sinned even more and he and his people still
wouldn't let God's people go, just as the Lord had told Moses.
THE BIBLICAL PLAGUES STUDY SUMMARY
THE PLAGUES OF EGYPT BIBLE STORY CONCLUSION
Pharaoh certainly is obstinate. Moses
has has his number though and is even bold enough to call him a liar to his
face. The plagues are getting worse with each one, and so far there have
been seven plagues on Pharaoh and Egypt. In our next story, we'll find out
about more and we'll see if Pharaoh changes his tune at all. Come back and
join us again for more Daily Bread as we learn more about Moses in the book
of Exodus.
