Exodus 10 · Grade 4
Telling the Next Generation
Read and Think
God said the plagues would give parents a story to tell their children about Him. Remembering and retelling God's great works is an important way to pass on faith.
The locusts finished what the hail started. Egypt's crops were destroyed. Pharaoh's own servants begged him to give up, but his pride would not let him humble himself before God.
The darkness was so thick it could be felt, and it lasted three days. Yet in Israel's homes there was light. God protects His people and gives them light even when the world around them is dark.
