Moses had warned that if Pharaoh didn’t let Israel, God’s firstborn, leave, then God would take the firstborn of Pharaoh. This tenth and final plague brought death to Egypt, to the firstborn of man and beast.
Exodus: 11:4-5
Then Moses said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘About midnight I will go out into the midst of Egypt; and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the hand mill, and all the firstborn of the animals.
Finally Pharaoh let Israel go, but he (and Egypt) had to pay a tremendous price: destruction, devastation and death.
PRAY ISRAEL WILL BE GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR HIS PROTECTION.
