Exodus 7:8 - 8:32

ExodusSteve Gregg
In Exodus 7:8 - 8:32, the plagues inflicted on Egypt were examples of God's power and judgement over the gods of Egypt. The plagues, which lasted for about 10 months, were not necessarily miracles in the true sense of the word, but rather acts of providence where God manipulated the laws of nature. The belief in pre-tribulation rapture, a popular view among evangelicals, was invented in 1830 and there is no mention of such a rapture in the Book of Revelation or other Bible passages.
