[meteorite-list] 7 plagues

[tett]

Hummm, .... there were 10 plagues


Nile River turned into a river of blood
Frogs
Dust turning to lice
Biting flies
Animals dieing
Boils and Sores
Hailstones
Locusts
3 days darkness
Plague on the first born.

Cheers,

Mike Tettenborn

One of the 7 plagues of Egypt - Moses was one of those
"by any means necessary" dudes. They were being held
as slaves, you know.
Lets see, they had:
frogs
grasshoppers
Nile turned red
Rained burning ice &  couple of others, including
the cincher, which was the death of the first born son of
every house - which is the basis of "Passover,"
when the Jews painted their doors with the blood
of a lamb to insure protection from same. I can understand
if you didn't read the book, but didn't you see the movie?!!
They show it on TV every Easter.
