The Plagues of Torture
These plagues are obviously not fair. Back in this time slavery was an extremely common. Thinking bad about them in particular would be unfair unless your willing to say everyone was just as bad. Plus slaves were treated as commodaties and were extemely valuable to a society, so if someone asked to let them go even under all the torments they'd keep them. Plus with the all the animals dieing off theyd have no food. With the hail some of thier homes might have been destroyed. Theyd need to clean Egypt entirely because of all the dead frogs. Many probably died off because of no water from the nile. Plus think off all the innocent first born kids who died of for no reason. To think that a god would kill of so man innocent people like that is insane. If this god wanted to free the slaves im sure there were many less inhumane ways of going about it. I dont want to belittle the torments the hebrews were meant to endure, but the thought of a god commiting such brutal vengince to a people who in many ways were about the same treating there slaves as in other cultures is just wrong.--John
