15 EXODUS 3:21-22 And I will see to it that the Egyptians load you down with gifts when you leave, so that you will by no means go out empty-handed! Every woman will ask for jewels, silver, gold, and the finest of clothes from her Egyptian master s wife and neighbors. You will clothe your sons and daughters with the best of Egypt!

16 2. The final plague is the death of the first born males in Egypt.

17 EXODUS 11:4-6 So Moses said, This is what Yahweh says: About midnight I will go throughout Egypt, and every firstborn male in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne to the firstborn of the servant girl who is behind the millstones, as well as every firstborn of the livestock. Then there will be a great cry of anguish through all the land of Egypt such as never was before, or ever will be again.

20 EXODUS 11:7-9 The Lord said to Moses, Pharaoh will not listen to you, so that My wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt. Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, but the Lord hardened Pharaoh s heart, and he would not let the Israelites go out of his land.

21 4. The final plague is punishment on Egypt and Israel.

22 ACTS 7:6-7 But God also told him that these descendants of his would leave the land and live in a foreign country and there become slaves for 400 years. But I will punish the nation that enslaves them, God told him, and afterwards my people will return to this land of Israel and worship me here.

23 EXODUS 12:12 I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night and strike every firstborn male in the land of Egypt, both man and beast. I am Yahweh; I will execute judgments against all the gods of Egypt.
