What were the ten plague of Moses?

The order of the 10 Plauges: 1.the water that turned into blood and killed all marine life/fish 2.frogs 3.lice 4.flies 5.the livestock got diseases 6.uncurable boils (ugh!) 7.hail, thunder/ bad storms 8.locusts 9.darkness 10.death of all firstborn firstborn Egyptains (people and animals) they could be saved if the Israelites put lamb's blood on their door


What did they kill in Egypt?

Without anything more specific than that, the answer would have to be "animals for food and people found guilty of capital crimes". If you are specifically referring to the Exodus story in Egypt, it could be one of two things. If "they" refers to the Egyptians loyal to Pharaoh, it would be the male babies of every Hebrew slave. If "they" refers to God, it would be large quantities of fish (plague 1), large quantities of livestock (plague 5), an immense amount of crops (plagues 7 & 8), and every Egyptian firstborn son (plague 10).

There isn't really one. There is the ankh, the symbol of life, but thats the closest you can get


How long were the plaques Moses performed on the Egyptians?

No one knows the answer since the Bible does not clearly say. Most likely, to be ambiguous, the plagues lasted as long as Pharoah could stand it; then he would call Moses and tell him something like, "I have sinned. Remove the plague and your people may leave." Once the plague was removed, Pharaoh would change his mind. Therefore, the plagues each seemed to last as long as the Egyptian king could stand it. I'm sorry that I can't be of more help, but the Bible does not say.


How long did it take Moses to convince pharaoh to let the people leave Egypt?

According to the Bible, the Pharaoh did not really let the Hebrews go. At least two and a half million Israelites escaped unnoticed in a single night from across Egypt. When the Pharaoh realised the Hebrews had somehow disappeared, he pursued them with his army, which was entirely destroyed by the waters of the Red Sea. This catastrophe is not mentioned in the Egyptian records, which in fact demonstrate that Egypt continued to rule supreme as the occupying power in Palestine.


What Egyptian word starts with the letter N?

An Egyptian word that starts with N could be Nefertiti who was an Egyptian queen and the wife of Akhenaten, an Egyptian Pharoah.


Who was the Pharaoh during the plagues and the Exodus?

A:The terrible plagues described in the Bible, including the nation-wide loss of the first-borns, would have caused enormous social upheaval and economic distress, so it should be easy to tell from the copious Egyptian records of the time just when this happened and who was king, or pharaoh, at the same time. However nothing appears anywhere in the record. Egypt remained prosperous right through the Late Bronze Age, and there is no hint of any event that could have resulted from these terrible plagues. Historians conclude they did not happen as described in the Bible.


Is it possible that the ten plagues were man-made?

I assume you are referencing the 10 plagues of the Exodus. According to the Bible, they were not, and could not have been, man-made. For example, Exodus 8:5 says that the plague of frogs came up from the fresh water after Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters. The plague of flies came one day after Moses warned pharaoh and the flies avoided the areas where the Jews lived (Exodus 8:20-24). And consider the final plague: the death of every firstborn son of the Egyptians which struck at midnight (Ex 11:4-5, 7).
