Reading for July 4th
Read Exodus 10.21-29
In 10.21-29: The ninth plague: A dense darkness sweeps over all Egypt.
In verse 23: The Israelites again are separated and thus do not suffer the effects of the plagues on the Egyptians.
See comment on 8.22.
In verse 27: On Pharaoh's hardened heart, see comment on 4.21.
In verses 28-29 Moses pledges not to seek an audience with Pharaoh again, but in fact Pharaoh summon Moses one more time during the tenth plague and final plague (12.31).
Moses' words may also hint at the death of Pharaoh and his army at the Red Sea crossing (14.33, 26-29).
