Commentary
Exodus 11 is a chapter that speaks to the power of God and His ability to protect His people. In this chapter, God instructs Moses to warn Pharaoh that He will bring one more plague upon Egypt before the Israelites are released. This plague will be the death of the firstborn of every Egyptian family. God promises to protect the Israelites from this plague by having them mark their doorposts with the blood of a lamb. This is a powerful demonstration of God's protection and mercy.
