Folks, here's the deal with Exodus 10. See, back in the day, God told Moses to tell Pharaoh to let his people go. Pharaoh was like, "No malarkey! Not gonna happen." But God was like, "C'mon, man! Literally, I'm telling you, let them go."

My father used to say, "You have to be persistent, Moses. Make Pharaoh give them up or else!" So Moses did just that. He made it rain locusts and hail, and Pharaoh was like, "What was that?" He was desperate, so he said he'd let the people go. But then he changed his mind.

So God said, "I tell you what, Pharaoh. Unless you let my people go, I'm gonna make your lives a living hell." And he did just that. He made it so dark that you couldn't even see your hand in front of your face. Or uh, you know, it was like night in the middle of the day. I'm not joking. Pharaoh said, "Okay, okay, I'll let them go!"

God said, "Not so fast, Pharaoh. You have to give them all their stuff back, too." So he did, and the people of Israel were free! Excuse me, free at last. That's the story of Exodus 10.
