Today's reading in Exodus 12 and part of 13, details the last of the plagues.  The first plagues were disgusting, stinky, and downright inconvenient.  But today's plagues became deadly.  It seems that Pharoah's resistance actually builds, the greater the damage done, until he even loses his son and all the first born of the Egyptians.  God is doing this mighty work so that when Pharoah expells the Israelites, the expulsion is complete.
