Dr. Geisler has noted that each plague seems to have been directed against a specific Egyptian god in order to show that Jehovah is the true God.1. Bloody water (7:17) – against the false god Nilus, the sacred river god. 2. Frogs (8:6) – against Hekt, the false goddess of reproduction 3. Lice (gnats) (8:17) – against Seb, the false god of the earth 4. Flies (beetles) (8:24) – against Khephera, the sacred scarab 5. Murrain (plague) on Egyptian cattle (9:3) – against Apis and Hathor, the sacred bull and cow 6. Boils on man and beast (9:10) – against Typhon, the evil-eye false god 7. Hail (9:23) – against Shu, the false god of the atmosphere 8. Locusts (10:14) – against Serapis, the false protector from locusts 9. Darkness (10:22) – against Ra, the sun false god 10. Death of the first-born of man and beast (11:5) – against Ptah, the false god of life. Perhaps this was a blanket attack against all the false gods of Egypt.
