earth belongs to him.
    That thou mayest know how that the earth is the LORD’s. 9.29
    To prove that he is God.
    In this thou shalt know that I am the LORD. 7.17
    That ye may know how that I am the LORD. 10.2
    To show that he likes Israelites more than Egyptians.
    That ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel. 11.7
    And to punish the Egyptian Gods.
    Against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment. 12.12
    Well, I guess those motives are about as good as any for a mass murder.
    In any case, God is clearly proud of this one. And it’s no wonder. It wasn’t all that easy to pull off, even for God.
    He had to harden the Pharaoh’s heart eight times to make it all work out as planned.
    1. I will harden his heart, that he shall not let the people go. Exodus 4.21
2. I will harden Pharaoh’s heart. 7.3
3. He hardened Pharaoh’s heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said. 7.13
4. The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh. 9.12 5. The LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him. 10.1
6. The LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go. 10.20
7. The LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let them go. 10.27
8. The LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of his land. 11.10
    Some hearts are hard for even the Bible god to harden.
    So how many were killed in this killing? Well, the population of Egypt at the time the Exodus supposedly occurred was about 3 million (McEvedy and Jones 1978, p.226). If one-sixth of them were first born sons, a half million Egyptians were killed by God (or the angel sent by God to do his dirty work for him).

10. The Lord took off their chariot wheels
    Exodus 14.27-28
    Number Killed: At least 600
    Estimated Number Killed: 5,000
    God’s last mass murder pretty much did the trick. The night that God killed every firstborn Egyptian child and animal, Pharaoh told Moses to go.
    He called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, and get you forth from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as ye have said. Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone; and bless me also. Exodus 12:31-32
    So Moses rounded up all three million or so Israelites, their flocks, herds, cattle, unleavened bread, and all the silver, gold, and clothes that they could steal from the Egyptians, and left town.
    The people took their dough before it was leavened … and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment … And they spoiled the Egyptians … about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children … and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle. 12.34-38
    And everything would have ended happily ever after, too, if God could have resisted the temptation to harden the Pharaoh’s heart a few more times.
    You see, the Pharaoh’s heart was just too damned soft to suit God. So he set about hardening it a bit more. (He had to harden it 8 times in order to pull off his last killing.)
    I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, that he shall follow after them; and I will be honoured upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; that the Egyptians may know that I am the LORD. 14.4
    And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh. 14.8
    I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen. And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen. 14.17-18
    So God hardened Pharaoh’s heart some more and got himself a little more honor.
    Of course he had to kill some more Egyptians so that they would know that he is the Lord. Sometimes you have to kill people in order to get to know them better.
