A:The Egyptians never did explain the ten plagues of Moses, since they were entirely unaware of them. In fact, the respected Israeli archaeologist, Israel Finkelstein, says that over 90 per cent of scholars do not believe that the Exodus from Egypt ever happened, as described in The Bible.

Is there a rational and scientific explanation for the ten plagues of Egypt in the Book of Exodus?

Archaeology is a science, and archaeologists say that the ten plagues never happened. So the rational and scientific explanation is that there never were the ten plagues of Egypt. In fact, the respected Israeli archaeologist, Israel Finkelstein, says that over 90 per cent of scholars believe that the Exodus from Egypt never happened [allowing for those scholars who accept no evidence contrary to a literal reading of the Bible].

So, it's not that the plagues are currently being prevented (and would naturally occurr without human intervention) but more that God does not have something to prove by bringing back the plagues.
