Biblical type Plauges
This is not meant for religious discussion. I just thought it was interesting that HISTORY repeats even though the only plague that hit Egypt this year was the locust.

Locusts (Exodus 10:1–20)

Darkness (Exodus 10:21–29)

Death of the first-born of all Egyptian humans and animals. To be saved, the Israelites had to place the blood of a lamb on the front door of their houses. This was the first passover in Exodus 11 & Exodus 12. This year passover is March 25th - April 3nd.

There you go. The 10 plagues of passover with 9 over and done with this year. Where does a person buy lambs blood ?

Exodus 12- For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods [3] of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the Lord. 13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy [4] you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

Im not sure its called murder when the All Mighty kills people but the result is the same.

Lambs blood isn't necessary anymore because of the blood from the Lamb of God in the New Testament.

Bill, what scripture do I find the reason He did this?

[wackymother Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close wackymother]

It's part of Exodus, chapters 3 through 12.

Might there be an appropriate place to discuss these plagues?

From what I read, the king of Egypt refused to recognize the god that Moses knew and wouldn't allow the Israelites to leave. No matter the reasoning he wouldn't let them go, but kept them in bondage.


The LORD sent a plague of frogs on Egypt.
The LORD sent gnats and then flies.
The LORD sent a plague on the livestock of Egypt, then boils and then hail.
The LORD sent a plague of locusts.
The LORD sent darkness for three days.
The LORD said that he would send one more plague, and then Pharaoh would let the Israelites go: all the firstborn Egyptians would die.
The LORD told the Israelites to take Passover. That night all the firstborn Egyptians died.
Pharaoh told the Israelites to go.

I'm not sure what you mean. You could go to Passover services at a temple or to a community seder in just a couple of weeks for a fuller discussion of the subject.

I remember the movie called " The Ten Commandments" with Charlton Heston. I might have to watch it again. Its the story of Exodus.

Yes, religion and politics are usually discussed in the political forum (opt in), yet some keep starting threads that have to be transferred there.
After about 3 of those thread moves, I get an itchy finger on the infraction button.

This isn't a religious thread. Its a history repeating thread. So calm down, no one is trying to convert anyone to anything. You have to admit that it is interesting to see these types of environmental and weather problems repeating.
