In the tenth and final plague, the Lord slew all the firstborn of in the land of Egypt, people and animals, with the exception of the Israelites and others who obeyed God’s instructions to apply the blood of a blemish-free lamb to the lintel and doorposts of their homes.

After eight plagues, Egypt’s flocks, herds, and crops have been decimated, yet Pharaoh refuses to allow the Israelites to leave. The ninth plague, three days of total darkness, then descends without warning. Yet again, Pharaoh refuses, and the Lord tells Moses that Pharaoh will finally relent after the next and final judgment, the death of the firstborn. For those who obey God’s…
Audio file includes the communion portion of the service Pastor Kevin begins a new series in the Book of Exodus with an overview of the historical background from the Book of Genesis.
