Ten Plagues: "ssence of idolatry is the belief that every force in nature has a god that controls it. In Egypt they worshipped the Nile god, the sun god, the cat god, the sheep god, etc. The Ten Plagues were designed by God to flip all the laws of nature on end to demonstrate—not just for the Jewish people but for all of humanity, for all of history—that He alone controls all of nature, all of the physical world, and that there is nothing outside of His control.
If we examine the plagues carefully we can readily see that each one was designed to show God’s control of all forces in nature: water and earth, fire and ice, insects, reptiles and mammals, light and darkness, and finally, life and death."
