The Ten Plagues: 8 Locust (‘Arbeh’) A profound and penetrating exploration of the terrifying hordes of grasshoppers that swarmed ancient Egypt, stripping it bare of all greenery; fully destroying its agriculturally based economy. See why the Torah states that this will be the plague that we will speak of to our children in the future, and how it uniquely made a mockery of the Pharaoh— more than any of the other plagues. These winged invaders densely darkened the skies, as they settled scores and old border disputes too. Be amazed to discover that the participating locusts were blind, kept Shabbat, and are actually referred to as G-d's troops.
