Detailed explanation-1: -Moses began by asking the Pharaoh to release the Israelites, but he refused. It was in response to the Pharaoh’s refusal that God sent the 10 plagues. The plagues were intended to force Pharaoh’s hand and make him release the Israelites from Egypt.
Detailed explanation-2: -The plague of darkness God commanded Moses to stretch his hand toward heaven, and a thick darkness appeared over the land of Egypt. This lack of light was so extreme that the Egyptians had to feel their way around. Then Pharaoh offered to set the Israelites free on condition they let their sheep and cattle remain.
Detailed explanation-3: -Again, Pharaoh begged Moses and Aaron to pray for an end to the plague. Moses agreed, and God sent a wind from the west to drive the locusts away. However, once the plague was God, Pharaoh’s heart hardened once again, and he refused to let the Israelites go.
