#85 - Creation in Reverse—the Plagues (Ex. 7-10)

Listen Later

In our fourth episode in the book of Exodus, we chat about Ex. 7-10—the highest amount of chapters we’ve ever covered in a single Radically Normal episode!

 

Today’s conversation:

  • The significance of “the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord”
  • A different, helpful view of miracles in Exodus & the Gospels
  • Creation & de-creation themes in Exodus & Revelation
  • Patterns amongst the plagues
  • God’s people set apart from Egypt
  • The tables are turned: the Nile is now a problem for the Egyptians
  • Connections between the Egyptians gods & the plagues
  • Pharaoh’s false repentance—& how we’re the same with sin
  • What does it mean that God hardened Pharaoh’s heart? (also see episode #35 for a deep dive on God’s sovereignty & predestination!)
  • The importance of 9:14-16—what is the ultimate purpose of the plagues?
  • The past helps God’s people walk in the present
  • The breadth of the plagues
  • Connections between the 9th plague & the Crucifixion
