Exodus 6-7: The Plagues Begin

The morality established by the ten commandments is pretty rough. Women are seen as property, slavery is ok, and God will punish your children and grandchildren for your mistakes. 

Moses gets some good advice from his father in law about how to govern 2.5 million people. Then, God makes him climb up and down a mountain several times

God brings his people to the brink of death by dehydration, but after they complain about it, he relents and Moses strikes a rock for water. Then, war begins!

The Isrealites sing a song to God for drowning the egyptians in front of them. Then, they nearly starve and will only feed them if they follow his very specific instructions as they near starvation

God gives more instructions for passover, including one that may or may not be child sacrifice, and then we get to the parting of the Red Sea, which includes God specifically drowning the armies of Pharoah for his own glory

We go through the last plague and learn all about the passover. God introduces us to "the Destroyer!"

God repeats the pattern again, hardening Pharoah's heart for his own glory. 

Pharaoh hardens his heart (or, sometimes God hardens it for him), and more plagues are on the way! We discuss the logistics of 4 trillion frogs emerging from a blood river and how many times the animals are killed

Pharoah's magic men replicate God's miracles, so it's time for plagues! We talk about the plot holes in plague number one.

Moses and Aaron make their way back into Egypt, armed with some unusual miracles that God is only kinda sure will work
