In Exodus 10, God sends the eighth and ninth plagues—locusts and darkness—continuing His confrontation with Pharaoh and the gods of Egypt. Despite repeated warnings, Pharaoh refuses to humble himself before the Lord and instead seeks compromise. This passage reminds us of the danger of a hardened heart and the call to wholehearted obedience. Ultimately, the darkness of Egypt points us to the greater hope found in Jesus Christ, the Light who delivers us from the darkness of sin.
