Eight One day as he was shepherding his flock, Moses came upon a burning bush in which G-d appeared to him and instructed him to go to Pharaoh to demand that he let the Jewish people go free. Nine Moses and his brother Aaron repeatedly go to Pharaoh to demand that he let the Jewish people go. Nine plagues were brought upon the Egyptians until Pharaoh finally agreed. Ten After the ninth plague, the Israelites were instructed to bring a "Passover offering" to G-d, a lamb to be slaughtered and its blood sprinkled on the doorposts of every Israelite home. Eleven The 10th plague happened. All the firstborn Egyptians were killed at the stroke of midnight on the 15th of Nissan. The Israelites were spared as G-d passed over all the houses with lamb's blood on the doorposts. Twelve Soon after their departure, Pharaoh changed his mind and led his army after the Israelites. The Israelites found themselves trapped between the sea and the Egyptian army. Moses follows G-d's order to raise his staff over the water. The sea splits to allow the Israelites to pass through but then closes over the pursuing Egyptians.
