The first plague was all the water of the egyptians water to blood so the king would let gods people go, but they refused. The second was frogs everywhere, including in their beds. Third was gnats and/or lice but still they refused. Every time he (the king of Egypt) refused god added a then further plague. the fourth was flies roaming, the 5th was livestock became diseased and so the king agreed, only then to change his mind. so then came the 6th, which was boils. the 7th plague was continuous thunder and hail which flattened all of their crops. locusts was the 8th plague and darkness was the 9th and the final was the death of the first born of every Egyptian family. the king the agreed to let the leave, so to celebrate, gods people had the first passover meal and left. but the king planned to steal them back just as they was approaching the river nile the saw them. moses prayed to god and he parted the water and brought it back so the king couldn't get them - by Jayme 12yrs old :)
