Moses Commands the Plague of Locusts

Moses stands with his rod extended over Egypt as the plague of locusts descends across the land. Swarms darken the sky and cover the ground while Egyptians struggle amid devastation, capturing the moment when the Lord commands judgment against Pharaoh’s hardened resistance. The scene draws from Exodus 10, where Moses stretches out his staff and an east wind brings locusts that consume what remains after the hail. The image emphasizes the biblical theme that creation itself answers the word of God, and that Pharaoh’s refusal to release Israel brings ruin upon Egypt. Strong for teaching the Ten Plagues, Moses narratives, divine judgment, repentance, and Old Testament deliverance.
