Exodus 10 · Grade 2

Bugs and a Dark Sky

Name Date

Read the Story

God told Moses to tell his children and grandchildren what God did in Egypt. Pharaoh's helpers begged him to let the people go, because Egypt was ruined. But Pharaoh said only the men could go.

So God sent a strong wind that brought locusts. Locusts are big hopping bugs that eat plants. They covered the ground and ate every green plant. Pharaoh said, I have sinned, and Moses prayed. God blew the locusts into the sea.

Then God made it dark in Egypt for three whole days. It was so dark that people couldn't see each other. But God's people had light in their homes! Pharaoh still would not let them go.

Memory Verse

“They didn’t see one another, and nobody rose from his place for three days; but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.”

Exodus 10:23 (WEB)
