Exodus 9:20

"Now therefore command that all of your livestock and all that you have in the field be brought into shelter. The hail will come down on every man and animal that is found in the field, and isn’t brought home, and they will die.”’”"

Key Reflection

In Exodus 9:20, God instructs Moses to command the Egyptians to bring their livestock and field produce into shelter. The message is clear: those who do not heed this warning will face destruction as the hailstorm devastates their unsheltered animals and crops. For the original audience, this would have been a stark reminder of divine judgment and the importance of obeying God’s instructions, especially when compared to Pharaoh's obstinate refusal, which led to further plagues.
