The Ninth Plague: Dark Times in Egypt Exodus 10:21-29 Darkness and Light are powerful themes in the Bible and through these themes God has been communicating His message to us all. God's curtain of Darkness covers the land of Egypt like hot fudge over vanilla ice cream. For three days, the light of the heavens was smothered. God was making a final appeal for repentance. They had three days to think, three days to repent before death should eventually come and they live in darkness for eternity. This darkness was a terrible judgment. They were totally helpless. Everything was shut down. The Egyptians had to stay at home for they had no light. This darkness strikes at the heart of the Egyptian religious system. The sun was worshiped. It was the emblem of Ra, Aten, Amun, and Horus. Darkness indicated that these gods were dead and powerless.

The world is oozing with educated men who dribble foolishness from their mouths. They may have education, but not wisdom. Knowledge leads us from the simple to the complex; wisdom on the other hand leads us from the complex to the simple Ps. 19:7. Vance Havner said, "If you lack knowledge, go to school. If you lack wisdom, get on your knees! Knowledge is not wisdom. Instead, wisdom is the proper use of knowledge."
