Israel has left Egypt, but rather than going the direct route to the promised land, God leads them south (to avoid the Philistines). God hardens Pharaoh’s heart, yet again, and he pursues Israel, trapping them at the banks of the Red Sea.

In Exodus 10 we see plagues 8 and 9 unleashed on Pharaoh and on Egypt. Plague 8 is the plague of locusts which decimate any remaining living vegetation in the land of Egypt. The 9th plague is the plague of darkness which engulfs Egypt in 3 days of darkness you can feel. God sets Goshen apart (the land where the Israelites live), providing them with light. Pharaoh’s heart is hardened by God to ensure His plan for Egypt and Israel unfolds (Exodus 10.1-3). Outline: 01:21 - Exodus 10.1-20 - Plague 8 - Locusts 05:11 - Exodus 10.1-2 - The Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart. “So that I may perform these signs… and you may know that I am the Lord.” Exodus 10.2 - Reference to Generations.

Compare this verse in different translations 26:08 - Exodus 10.11 - Moses and Aaron were driven out of Pharaoh’s presence. 26:19 - Exodus 10.16 - “I have sinned - take this deadly plague away” 27:26 - Egyptian gods being challenged through the plagues of Locusts (Nut, Osiris & Set) 28:41 - Exodus 10.21-29 31:20 - The Plague of Darkness Genesis 1.1-3. God takes away the light of His creation 33:12 - What Egyptian god is attacked by taking away the sun?
