Notes

Exodus 11:8

Pharaoh had lost control. Moses was no longer making a request. He was now able to set the terms for the Israelites' departure from the country.

Exodus 11:1–9

The final plague was the death of the firstborn sons. The Egyptians worshiped life. They gave so much attention to preparations for life after death because they wanted to ensure that it would be at least as good as their lives in Egypt. Death itself is in God’s hand. There is no underworld god who can ultimately defeat the God of life. Both life and death belong to the Lord.
