Did the plagues spoiled the Egyptians?




Did the plagues spoiled the Egyptians?

Just realised I was prompted three days continuously on the topic spoiled the Egyptians 😌 a way out how to deliver the message without jumpers here and there that I had caught in for a week.

🤔 Partial?

Nope.  Not at all.

The plagues serve a different purpose.  Read again.

Exo 3:19-20:
19 `And I -- I have known that the king of Egypt doth not permit you to go, unless by a strong hand,
20 and I have put forth My hand, and have smitten Egypt with all My wonders, which I do in its midst -- and afterwards he doth send you away.

The plagues are to smitten Egypt (the siege) that afterwards he doth send the drawn (the delivered) away.

The Pharoah (great house) did believe Jehovah is God, but believed is one thing spoiled is another.  Believed doesn't mean spoiled.

Spoiled means to snatch away, deliver, rescue, save, strip, plunder.

Beside to show God's wonders that the people believe Jehovah is God, the plagues has one other important purpose - to harden the heart of Pharoah (great house)

Exo 10:1-2:
1 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Go in unto Pharaoh, for I have declared hard his heart, and the heart of his servants, so that I set these My signs in their midst,
2 and so that thou recountest in the ears of thy son, and of thy son`s son, that which I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have set among them, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.`

Exo 10:27 And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not been willing to send them away;

📌 Smitten with plagues only harden and strengthen the heart of the smitten.

The Sword is two edges.

😂 I just realized, smitten is how my heart is harden and strengthen towards Him.


Exo 3:21-22:
21 `And I have given the grace of this people in the eyes of the Egyptians, and it hath come to pass, when ye go, ye go not empty;
22 and [every] woman hath asked from her neighbour, and from her who is sojourning in her house, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and ye have put [them] on your sons and on your daughters, and have spoiled the Egyptians.`

Our role, our focus:
- God has given in the eyes of the Egyptians, the Grace of this people (this people who God prevails).

📌 Not about God gives this people favor as some Bible translated, but refer to the Grace of this people who God prevails (dwell in God).

Show Grace.  Show Grace to the Egyptians.

- When we go, go not empty; Go with harvest, Go with fruits.

Who is the neighbour here?
Who has given the grace; (Exo 3:21..the grace of this people in the eyes of the Egyptians)

The neighbour in the above verse carry the meaning inhabitant, abide, dwell, tabernacle, reside. (Someone dwell in God)


Here, man not mentioned but woman.

Why woman? Who is sojourning in her house?

Gen 2:22: "And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man."

Woman has a few meaning in the Bible, beside what we understand from the English Language, it also refer to Holy Spirit/Spirit/spirit in the Bible.

Here in General 2:22 it shows one more meaning.

Woman is a man who is made lame by removed one of his ribs that he needs an helper (Gen 2:20) in his walk of life.

Rib has an origin meaning of be lame.


The first mention in the Bible 'vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments' is in Gen 24:53

Gen 24:53 and the servant taketh out vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and giveth to Rebekah (ensnarer); precious things also he hath given to her brother and to her mother.

Servant here refer to the Holy Spirit.

The vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and garments are given through the Holy Spirit.

The Word shows us that the vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and garments ensnare, spoiled the Egyptians (Exo 3:22)

Exo 3:22 and [every] woman hath asked from her neighbour, and from her who is sojourning in her house, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and ye have put [them] on your sons and on your daughters, and have spoiled the Egyptians.`

and [every] lame (the weak, needs help) hath asked from her neighbour (inhabitant, abide - the body of Christ), and from her who is sojourning in her house (the Holy Spirit), the vessels of silver, the vessels of gold, and garments;

Put these on that the Egyptians see. The grace of your sons and your daughters.

📌 Smitten with plagues only harden and strengthen the heart of the smitten.


📌 We go not empty by spoiled the Egyptians:

The Grace of Us, we who dwell in God the Father, Lord the Son and the Holy Spirit LEAD [every] Woman, the lame, the weak, the needs help, the Egyptians (the seige) ASKED from Us their Neighbour;

We the Woman Asked from Her (the Holy Spirit) who is sojourning in Our House, the vessels of silver, the vessels of gold, and garments;

and We have put [them - the vessels and the garments] on Our sons and on Our daughters, and we have spoiled the Egyptians.

Do not leave this life without.

Exo 3:21 `And I have given the grace of this people in the eyes of the Egyptians, and it hath come to pass, when ye go, ye go not empty;

📌 Spoiled the Egyptians started with the Grace of Us in Christ.


Exo 11:2-3:
2 speak, I pray thee, in the ears of the people, and they ask -- each man (the strong) from his neighbour (the gracious) and each woman (the weak) from her neighbour (the gracious), vessels of silver, and vessels of gold.`
3 And Jehovah giveth the Grace of the people in the eyes of the Egyptians; also the man Moses [is] very great in the land of Egypt, in the eyes of the servants of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of the people.


What to achieve after the ninth plague?

- Jehovah is God
- The people dwell in God is gracious in the eyes of the Egyptians
- the man Moses (drawn, delivered, saved) Speak, not only speak but speak In the Ears of the people
- that these people, strong and weak Asked from we the gracious how to accomplish ( the vessels of silver and vessels of gold)
- because of the Grace of the people in the eyes of the Egyptians (seige); also the man Moses (refer to the man drawn/delivered/saved by God) [is] very great in the land of Egypt (the seige), in the eyes of the servants of Pharaoh (great house), and in the eyes of the people.


Note, God only mentioned part of what He planned (Exo 3:22) in Exo 11:2, not yet the time for the rest in Exo 3:22.

Exo 3:22 .., and garments, and ye have put [them] on your sons and on your daughters, and have spoiled the Egyptians.`

📌📌📌 Do note too, here God said the people not my peopleHis plan is not only to bring the sons of Israel out of Egypt but All people.

We, the child of God are John the Baptist, to prepare the path of the people to come to know Jesus, Jehovah is Salvation, to bring them out of Egypt, to come to God the Father through Jesus, call Him Abba Father.


The Bible is the Truth and nothing but the Truth.

There're occasions man misinterpret God's word, and these were written in the Bible.

I believe it is there in the Bible that we don't feel condemn, just be more aware from the instances written, be sobered when we read the Word.

Read slow.  

Always seek God to testify what we received.


Take for one of the instances, God talked about neighbour in His instructions but word of Most said Egyptians in Exo 12:35.

Exo 12:35: "35 And the sons of Israel have done according to the word of Moses, and they ask from the Egyptians vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and garments;"

Beside it is clearly stated in the Bible, it is good to check whether the intention align with God's will.

E.g. they didn't bring food but silver and gold and garments?

Why vessels of silver and vessels of gold?  Why not silver and gold?

Asked from Egyptians? I thought God wants us to live a new life, leave behind the old and worldly?

Why they need vessels of silver and vessels of gold when sent away from Egypt by Pharaoh?

And why God did not mention to ask for garments in Exo 11:2?

Did God forget yet Moses remembered and told the sons of Israel in Exo 12:35?

No.  God never make mistake, which means Moses did.  God did not mention for a purpose.  It wasn't time yet.


Read slow.   Meditate and chew on.


Abba Father,
