The Ten Plagues: God’s Judgment on Egyptian Idols

TEN PLAGUES AGAINST TEN IDOLS

The 10 Plagues that occurred in Egypt was designed to prove to the Egyptians that God is the Lord.

  • Exodus 7:5 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.

Each plague was designed to prove that the Egyptian gods have no power over the judgments of the Hebrew God.
