The Ten Plagues – Part I 

Introduction: 

Read Exodus 12:12 Modern skeptics of the Bible deny these ten miraculous plagues against Egypt.  Some claim they were all natural events.  But increasing knowledge of ancient Egypt reveals that these plagues were exactly as described in the Bible – God’s judgments against the false gods of Egypt. 

Archaeological evidence from Egypt for the plagues 

Text:  Exodus 7-12 

Theme:  To confirm how each plague showed Jehovah’s superiority over individual Egyptian gods.

The Ten Plagues – Part II

 Egypt was a polytheistic society – they worshipped over eighty gods.  “For beneath and above everything in Egypt was religion.  We find it there in literature, in government, in art, in everything except morality.  And it is not only varied, it is tropically abundant; only in Rome and India shall we find so plentiful a pantheon.  We cannot understand the Egyptian – or man – until we study his gods.”  (Durant, p.197)

 Recall that the ten plagues were not against just Pharoah and Egyptians, but against the gods of Egypt.  (Exodus 12:12)

 The first plague, water being turned into blood, showed Jehovah’s superiority over Khnum, Hapi, Osiris and others.  Now we turn to the second plague.

 II. The Second Plague – Frogs (Exodus 8:1-15)

 III. The Third Plague – Lice (Exodus 8:16-19)

 IV. The Fourth Plague – Flies (Exodus 8:20-31)

 V. The Fifth Plague – Livestock Diseased (Exodus 9:1-7

  • Another god was Hathar, the cow-headed goddess.  She was the symbolic mother of Pharaoh.

  • Others included Khaum, the ram god.

  • Pharaoh still wouldn’t obey.
