Insane Plagues From the Bible That Tortured Egypt

[@jamsum7215]

These plagues were also used to disprove a different god of Egypt's society: 1. Nile to blood: Hapi, the God of the annual flooding 2. frogs: Heket, Goddess of fertility, water, renewal (had the head of a frog) 3. lice: Geb, the god of the Earth 4. flies: Khepri: God of creation, movement of the Sun and rebirth (had the head of a fly) 5. livestock: Hathor, Goddess of love and protection (had the head of a cow) 6. boils: Isis, God of medicine and peace 7. hail: Nut, Goddess of the sky 8. locust: Seth, God of storms and disorder 9. darkness: Ra, God of the sun 10. first born: Pharaoh, the ultimate power of Egypt "If you're telling me that your gods are real and mine is fake, but my God controls these things, who actually is in power?"

Very nice video and explanations ! I saw a documentary on this as well. Another theory for the death of the first born children was that after all the previous plagues, the food was scarce and they had to pick from old stored food (stored multiple years or months ago).But this food was contaminated by a bacteria. Since the first born were the ones to which the more food was given, they reached higher levels of toxicity and died from a disease caused by the bacteria.

As an average person who just goes about their day and occasionally watching good videos like this: Scientific explanations like this about biblical events along with depictions in the bible always fascinate me in their perplexing similarity and simultaneous contrast from each other. All these things could, and have, happen naturally, yet at the same time such an apocalyptic event just FEELS like something more was going on. It could go either way. I just love how religious tales and actual science can coexist. "Was it god?" Maybe! "Was it simply a natural event" Definitely! But what I adore is the possibility that it could have been BOTH. Everyone always says God works in mysterious ways, whether referring to his methods, his actions, or the motives behind them. It ain't always to see what he's trying to do, or even what he's doing at all! Perhaps someone who created a world like ours wouldn't need to do much to defend its people. Someone like him would probably already know so much about it's ins and outs that when faced with smiting an entire nation to free an enslaved people of worshippers he may not even need to bring down his godly powers. All he'll need to do is feed the algae!

His letters to an official in Canaan mention his distrust of foreigners and their ‘magicians’. His mummy was covered in marks that might have been from a disease, like the plague of boils. The later part of his reign is completely absent from historical records. Finally, his descendant Akhenaten tried to completely overhaul Egypt’s religion in favor of monotheism. What could have given him reason for that?

I heard another theory explaining the tenth plague (death of the first born) according to this theory it was common practice for the eldest son to sleep on the floor or lowest to the ground. If the other plague were caused by a volcanic eruption, the toxic gases may have swept through the region during the night. These toxic gasses are heavier than air so if it was a calm night the air would have been much more toxic near ground level where the eldest usually slept. The eldest would be killed and the rest would relatively unscathed. This doesn't really explain why the jews were spared though. Maybe they had different traditions when it came to sleeping arrangements, maybe they were mostly segregated to an area that happened to be at a slightly higher elevation or had some other barrier keeping the low laying gasses out or maybe their homes' architecture was different than the Egyptians in a way that kept them safe. The parting of the sea and the reclosing of it can also be explained by volcanic activity. volcanic activity can aggravate fault lines and cause built up stresses to be released. A fault line could have buckled causing the seafloor to drop several feet, as the sea floor dropped it would have created a vacuum, pulling immeasurable amounts of seawater(or lake water, whatever the case may be) towards itself and away from where the jews needed to cross, (very) temporarily drying up the crossing. As the seawater fills the void created by the seafloor dropping, because of momentum more water keeps rushing in until the water level above where the seafloor dropped is actually higher than the rest of the sea, this very quickly tries to correct itself and the sudden outflow of water generates a tsunami which would come crashing down on the previously dry passageway like an unstoppable wall of water. It is really looking like volcanism was the force behind this story. I wonder what the religious ramifications are if it was actually the world under our feet and not the one above our heads that was responsible for freeing the jews from slavery back then.

There's just one tiny little problem with that it was the first born son of everyone in Egypt that would include adults who were the firstborn son of their fathers so technically it could have been a father losing his son and Grandson in the same night or it could have been the father the Son and the grandson in some cases three generations were wiped out in one night because they were the first born sons of their fathers in Egypt

The economic and environmental woes of the plagues could have ignited a chain reaction that resulted in the break down of the bronze age empires. The lack of historical record is not an issue. Many ancient texts are lost or destroyed. Plus the Greeks such as Diodorus reference the plagues in his origin of the Jews.

[@cedwardsmedia]

19:13 I was raised a Christian and I attended University with the goal of becoming a Christian Minister. While I have since turned from faith and question much of that which I was taught, I will offer a defense for the belief. Let's assume that God IS real and everything, including the laws of nature and physics were His creation. If so, it would only make sense for Him to know that performing a specific act would lead to each sequential "plague". Therefore, God only needed to turn the water into "blood" to kickstart the entirety of the ten plagues. Assuming God IS the creator, He alone would have the knowledge (at the time at least) that one thing would lead to another and so on. It only makes sense that He would kickstart a chain reaction. I submit to you that (again, assuming our belief here) the Bible renders things unto the reader from the perspective of the writer. It stands to reason that those in ancient times would not have knowledge of algae and their potential effects on the local ecosystem. Therefore, the descriptions offered - such as turning the River Nile to blood, would've been rendered as the result of the limitation of the knowledge and understanding of the people at the time. I believe, if we assume God is real as aforementioned, it would only make sense that the Almighty who knows EVERYTHING would "dumb down" his actions and explain them in such a way the people of the time would understand. All that said, if God is real, it only makes sense that He, being in control of Mother Nature, would use a natural chain of reactions. It conserves energy (something God is obviously a proponent of as He rested on the Seventh Day.

As a Christian you have no idea how happy this video makes me. In the Bible it is clear that the feud was also largely about showing who's God or gods were supreme. As the Egyptian gods were nature gods the Lord used the earth to deliver his will, showing HE is Lord of nature and the earth. Each plague actually corresponds w an Egyptian god too (including the frogs.) The first born of the Pharo was the final god to be slayed. In fact, many of the Egyptian priests gave in and proclaimed that the God of the Israelites MUST be Lord as they had seen him dominate all of their gods. It is also very sad that the pride allowed this to happen. Moses begged him to let his people go as the last plague would be the worst yet. Taking human life was the LAST resort. In the end the Israelites had to be protected though. There was a very special little boy that would be born among them one day. I had no idea that the plagues weren't strictly supernatural. They were divine acts of nature.Very cool information. Well played Lord, well played.

It's a good thing something like this don't happen today. I don't want to know how many deaths that would occur if something like the ten plagues occurs today. I might be a smart guy, but even i can't tell what would happen. It's a really good thing something like this don't just happen. I'm glad we only have to deal with two viruses/diseases, a few wars and other hellscapes that occurs today

@@believeinmatter true. The bible and such books are fairy tales. They're made up for people to believe in, just to make them believe in something they might never have believed in otherwise.

A few years ago while cruising down the Nile our tour guide told us of some nearby rocks that has ancient drawings and writings about the plagues and disasters. Sure enough, behind some metal fences only a few metres from the Nile a dozen or so boulders have the accounts. This is fact. Look it up on the internet. I was stunned that I never learnt about this site, it should be in my opinion as famous as the pyramids.

I send my scourge, I send my sword Let my people go Thus saith the Lord Thus saith the Lord You who I called brother How could you have come to hate me so? Is this what you wanted?

Fun fact in my church that the missing plague is actually believed to be a plague of mosquitoes, which for me personally makes sense since frogs eat mosquitoes

[@abelrichardson4319]

As a believer, I believe that this did happen, I have read about the evidence and since the Bible has a 99.8 or close to that accuracy rate, I have reason to believe that it did happen. I also have experienced God’s hand work on my life.

[@neyou6940]

If the plagues happened Why don't Egypt converted to christianity?

[@abelrichardson4319]

@@neyou6940 the answer is simple. Pride held them back. The ancient Egyptians didn’t believe in God, and Christianity wasn’t around at that time either. They already had their pantheon that no matter what God did to show it was wrong, they still held to it, because they didn’t want to change their ways. “The wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23. I may not be the best at explaining it, but the best way is to read in the New Testament especially in the epistles. The answers are there.

'And God hardened the Pharaoh's heart' Meaning he wanted to create choas in Egypt regardless of whatever decision the leaders made.

[@harveywabbit9541]

Thus, Pharaoh had one whole week in which to take breath; the shortest time possible for the practiced eye to discern whether or not the Sun had made any progress in his return from his southern tour. The Lord again egged on the two brothers, and "frogs came up." Pharaoh's "magicians did so with their enchantments" (Ex. 8. 7). The Sun was still in Aquarius, near, or in its first degrees. As these were a peculiar kind of frogs, being bred in mid-winter, and entering into every apartment of the Egyptians' houses, even into their ovens and kneading troughs, I suspect they may not after all have been an animal production. This legend was probably derived from the Hindu story of Bheki, or the Frog-prince, "which denotes the Sun as it rests upon the water," or just above the horizon, as it always does near the winter solstice, sprawled out as in the act of leaping into the water. Thus, when Moses and Aaron, assisted by Pharaoh, stretched forth their hands, up came Bheki, or the Frog-prince, or the winter Sun, with his hateful progeny, in the form of cold windy weather, which entered into every imaginable nook and corner of the land - into their ovens and kneading troughs. (Cox's Myth., vol. 1, pp. 165-400.)

[@bradbrandon2506]

They actually found pharaoh and his army at the bottom of the red sea a few years ago. When they did an autopsy, the cause of death was... literally only able to be caused by an entire sea crashing down upon them at once, killing them all instantly.

I've seen many movies of the Exudos story. My favorite is the animated "Prince of Egypt". The "Ten Commandments", with Charleston Heston is a good watch if you can stay awake for 3 hours, and is the most faithful adaptation of the Biblical Story. I didn't like Ridley Scott's version of "Exudos: Gods and Kings", it totally secularized and downplayed the supernatural elements of the story and made Moses look like a mad men.

My apologies, but you did get a mix-up with plagues 4 and 5. The fourth plague is explicitly stated as a plague of flies that swarmed over Egypt and ravaged the land and the homes of the Egyptians, and therefore would have been the catalyst for the fifth plague that infected the livestock of Egypt. The other eight were correct to the letter.

[@isaacolukanni]

Talking about the river turned to blood, The Bible also recorded that all other water sources and containers had their water turned to blood: And the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, their canals, and their ponds, and all their pools of water, so that they may become blood, and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, even in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’”(Exodus 7:19). Please, how do we explain this?

Some people think that the Israelites never went to the Red Sea. The word reed got mistranslated for red so they fled using the reed sea aka some large lake in Egypt (something also the lines of lake Methuselah). The water in this lake also went back likely due to the volcanic eruption as a similar event was noted by some British scientists atuding the lake around 1820
