Water  Turned to Blood

Moses went to the palace and asked Pharaoh to free the Jewish People  

PHARAOH SAID NO!

FROGS

Moses went to the palace again and asked Pharaoh to free the Jewish People 

Again Pharaoh said NO!

There were Lice

Moses went to the palace and asked Pharaoh to free the Jewish People 

Again Pharaoh said NO!

Flies

Once again Moses went to the palace and asked Pharaoh to free the Jewish People 

Even now Pharaoh said NO!

Cattle Died

Moses went to the palace and asked Pharaoh to free the Jewish People 

Again Pharaoh said NO!

And all the Egyptian Teenagers got Boils

Back to the palace went Moses

But Pharaoh kept saying NO!

God Sent Hail

Moses went to the palace and asked Pharaoh to free the Jewish People 

Again Pharaoh said NO!

And Locusts

Moses schlepped to the palace again and asked Pharaoh to free the Jewish People 

Again Pharaoh said NO!

He sent Darkness

Moses went to the palace , he was pretty upset and asked Pharaoh to free the Jewish People 

Again Pharaoh said........... NO!

And Finally, (dramatic voice) he sent down The death of the firstborn Male

And Moses went to the Palace again and asked Pharoah to let the Jewish people go and Pharaoh said (altogether)
"YES YES YES, take the Jews away and GO"

Many people say the reason Pharaoh changed his mind was because he had a firstborn son who died.  His brother also died so many people say he was too distraught to concentrate on what Moses was saying. However, this is just Midrash and not necessarily true.  

Moses rushed back and told all the Jews to leave in such a hurry that they had no time to add yeast to their dough.  As soon as the Jews had left, Pharoah sent his army after them to bring them back. Moses and the Jews ran until they reached the Red Sea.  There seemed no way to cross the sea so Moses started praying and suddenly the sea parted.  The Egyptians tried to go through, but the waters closed around them and they all drowned. Hurray!
