There were three deaths in the beasts: 1) plague, 2) the ones that died by the hail, 3) the firstborn among the cattle that died in the plague of the death of the firstborn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>191) And what was their death? It was written from the beginning, \u201cBehold, the hand of the Lord is upon your cattle which are in the field.\u201d Why does it not say, \u201cThe hand of the Lord\u201d in all the plagues? Here it is a hand with five fingers. In the beginning, with the plague of lice, it was written, \u201cThis is the finger of God.\u201d And here it is all five fingers, where each finger kills a single species, and there were five species, as it is written, \u201cUpon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, upon the herds, and upon the flocks,\u201d thus five kinds for five fingers, called \u201chand.\u201d This is the reason why \u201cThe hand of the Lord is upon your cattle which are in the field,\u201d a severe plague. They were dying of their own, meaning they were found dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>192) After the Egyptians did not repent, these very letters, the letters of the plague, returned and killed all those who were left. Thus, the letters of plague [<em>Dever<\/em>] returned and were hail [<em>Barad<\/em>], except that the plague is with calm and the hail is with the force of anger. And those two were in a single place, in five fingers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>193) In plague it is letters that are at ease, dying at ease, meaning they were dying by themselves. Hail means that the letters returned to being with the force of anger and killed everything.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>190) In Egypt, the Creator killed all the cattle and flock.
