  6. The Israelites were slaves in Egypt. To free them from slavery (which was a symbol of sin) in order to eventually bring them to the Promised Land (which was a symbol of heaven), God sent Moses to bring Ten Plagues on Pharaoh and Egypt. The Tenth Plague, called the Passover, set the Israelites free. Read about the Passover in Exodus 12:1-7.
