In Exodus 11, God announces the tenth and final plague upon Egypt: the death of the firstborn. This chapter serves as a crucial bridge, detailing the divine warning to Pharaoh through Moses, the stark contrast between the fate of the Egyptians and the Israelites, and the preparations for Israel's imminent departure. It underscores God's absolute sovereignty, His faithfulness to His covenant people, and His judgment against those who defy Him, setting the stage for the Passover and the ultimate release from bondage.
