Answer: Hi, in the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures, it is recorded that Jehovah, God, sent 10 plagues against Pharoah, these all were sent from Jehovah because Pharaoh kept refusing to send Jehovah God's people away. The very last plague, number 10, is what made Pharaoh decide that Jehovah was more powerful than all of Egypt's God's. This plague would kill all of those who did not mark their door with the blood of the lamb. These were mainly unbelieving Egyptains. And it killed Pharoahs son, his only firstborn. Jehovah parted the red sea, Because Pharaohs heart hardened once more against isreal and against Jehovah. This was the final judgement to show that Jehovah was the most powerful of all. The Exodus is the travel of Isreal out of Egypt and to the Promised land. The 10 commandments are 10 of Jehovahs requirments/ expectations that isreal must follow. They had these to signify that they accepted Jehovah as their ONLY God. The jewish religion was different than any other religion because at the time they were the only one culture that served under one God. I think that the most signifying thing in this chapter is how Jehovah proved that his mighty hand will protect his people. For more information visit www.jw.org
