Moartea primului născut

Egypt’s firstborn son lies lifeless upon a white-draped bed while a royal figure sits beside him in stunned grief, surrounded by palace furnishings and Egyptian dress. The scene portrays the final plague in Exodus, when the Lord struck the firstborn of Egypt after Pharaoh hardened his heart against God’s command to let Israel go. The still body and the mourner’s bowed posture give visual weight to the judgment that fell from Pharaoh’s throne to the lowliest household. In the biblical narrative, this night becomes the turning point of the Exodus: Egypt’s power is broken, Israel is released, and the Passover blood marks the homes spared from death. This artwork is suited for teaching on the ten plagues, Passover, divine judgment, deliverance, and the cost of resisting God’s word.
