FIFTH DAY: Read Exodus 9:13-10:29.
Q10. What is new or
different in each of the seventh, eighth and ninth plagues?
There is new that some of the Egyptians start to
fear and believe in God in the 7th plague. Even the magicians urged Pharaoh to let the Israelites
go in the 8th plague.
One different is Pharaoh start to bargain before the locusts plague said, “only the men go”. Pharaoh said, “Even your women and children may go with you” in
the 9th plague.
Q11.
a.
Describe the bargain Pharaoh was trying to make with Moses.
The bargain Pharaoh was trying to make with
Moses about not to let all people or livestock go, so the Israelites must turn
back later.
b.
What bargains do people try to make with God?
We often bargain with God for our own earthly benefit.
Q12. In Exodus 6:30 Moses showed a lack of
confidence by saying “Since
I speak with faltering lips, why would Pharaoh listen to me?” In Exodus 10:24-29 Moses is totally different. After went
through 9 plagues God sent. Not only Moses himself the Israelites also believed
that the Lord would surely deliver them out of Egypt. Moses’ faith increased so
he answered Pharaoh firmly; “Just
as you say” “I will never appear before you again.” It shows that he’s
confident with what he says also his words became more wise and sharp.
