The plagues are a demonstration of God's power and sovereignty over Egypt, a nation that worshiped many gods. The plagues were not random but targeted Egyptian deities, showing God's supremacy. The mention of "officials and your people" highlights the widespread impact of the plagues, affecting all levels of Egyptian society. This reflects the biblical theme of divine justice, where the consequences of sin and rebellion against God are experienced by the entire community.so you may know that there is no one like Me in all the earth This phrase underscores the purpose of the plagues: to reveal God's unique nature and unparalleled power. In the ancient Near Eastern context, where polytheism was prevalent, this declaration sets the God of Israel apart as the one true God. The phrase "in all the earth" emphasizes God's universal dominion, not limited to Israel or Egypt. This is a recurring biblical theme, seen in passages like <a href="/isaiah/45-5.htm">Isaiah 45:5-6</a>, where God declares His uniqueness. The plagues serve as a type of Christ, foreshadowing the ultimate revelation of God's power and love through Jesus, who demonstrates God's authority over nature, sin, and death.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/g/god.htm">God (Yahweh)</a> The sovereign Lord who is executing judgment on Egypt to demonstrate His power and uniqueness. 2. <a href="/topical/p/pharaoh.htm">Pharaoh</a> The ruler of Egypt, whose heart is hardened against releasing the Israelites. 3. <a href="/topical/e/egypt.htm">Egypt</a> The land where the Israelites are enslaved and where God is sending plagues as a sign of His power. 4. <a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a> The prophet and leader of the Israelites, who is delivering God's message to Pharaoh. 5. <a href="/topical/t/the_plagues.htm">The Plagues</a> A series of divine judgments sent by God to compel Pharaoh to release the Israelites.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/g/god's_sovereignty.htm">God's Sovereignty</a> God is in control of all events and uses them to fulfill His purposes.

We must remain open and responsive to God's guidance. <a href="/topical/g/god's_uniqueness.htm">God's Uniqueness</a> The plagues reveal that there is no one like God.

A very emphatic announcement. At this time contrasts the immediate future with the past, and tells Pharaoh that the hour of mild warnings and slight plagues is gone by. Now he is to expect something far more terrible God will send all his plagues - every worst form of evil - in rapid succession; and will send them against his heart. Each will strike a blow on that perverse and obdurate heart - each will stir his nature to its inmost depths. Conscience will wake up and insist on being heard. All the numerous brood of selfish fears and alarms will bestir themselves. He will tremble, and be amazed and perplexed. He will forego his pride and humble himself, and beg the Israelites to be gone, and even intreat that, ere they depart, the leaders whom he has so long opposed, will give him their blessing (<a href="/exodus/12-32.htm">Exodus 12:32</a>). That thou mayest know. Pharaoh was himself to be convinced that the Lord God of Israel was, at any rate, the greatest of all gods. He was not likely to desert at once and altogether the religion in which he had been brought up, or to regard its gods as nonexistent. But he might be persuaded of one thing - that Jehovah was far above them. And this he practically acknowledges in vers. 27 and 28. <a href="/commentaries/exodus/9-14.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>Otherwise, כִּ֣י ׀ (kî) Conjunction <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3588.htm">Strong's 3588: </a> A relative conjunction I אֲנִ֨י (’ă·nî) Pronoun - first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_589.htm">Strong's 589: </a> I will send שֹׁלֵ֜חַ (šō·lê·aḥ) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7971.htm">Strong's 7971: </a> To send away, for, out all כָּל־ (kāl-) Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3605.htm">Strong's 3605: </a> The whole, all, any, every My plagues מַגֵּפֹתַי֙ (mag·gê·p̄ō·ṯay) Noun - feminine plural construct | first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4046.htm">Strong's 4046: </a> A blow, slaughter, plague, pestilence against אֶֽל־ (’el-) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_413.htm">Strong's 413: </a> Near, with, among, to you לִבְּךָ֔ (lib·bə·ḵā) Noun - masculine singular construct | second person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3820.htm">Strong's 3820: </a> The heart, the feelings, the will, the intellect, centre and your officials וּבַעֲבָדֶ֖יךָ (ū·ḇa·‘ă·ḇā·ḏe·ḵā) Conjunctive waw, Preposition-b | Noun - masculine plural construct | second person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5650.htm">Strong's 5650: </a> Slave, servant and your people, וּבְעַמֶּ֑ךָ (ū·ḇə·‘am·me·ḵā) Conjunctive waw, Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular construct | second person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5971.htm">Strong's 5971: </a> A people, a tribe, troops, attendants, a flock so בַּעֲב֣וּר (ba·‘ă·ḇūr) Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5668.htm">Strong's 5668: </a> Crossed, transit, on account of, in order that you may know תֵּדַ֔ע (tê·ḏa‘) Verb - Qal - Imperfect - second person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3045.htm">Strong's 3045: </a> To know that כִּ֛י (kî) Conjunction <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3588.htm">Strong's 3588: </a> A relative conjunction [there is] no one אֵ֥ין (’ên) Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_369.htm">Strong's 369: </a> A non-entity, a negative particle like Me כָּמֹ֖נִי (kā·mō·nî) Preposition | first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3644.htm">Strong's 3644: </a> Like, as, when in all בְּכָל־ (bə·ḵāl) Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3605.htm">Strong's 3605: </a> The whole, all, any, every the earth. הָאָֽרֶץ׃ (hā·’ā·reṣ) Article | Noun - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_776.htm">Strong's 776: </a> Earth, land <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/exodus/9-14.htm">Exodus 9:14 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/exodus/9-14.htm">OT Law: Exodus 9:14 For this time I will send all (Exo.
