⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

God is warning Pharaoh that He will send the worst hailstorm in Egypt's entire history as the next plague.

📚 Historical Context

This warning comes during the seventh plague that God sent upon Egypt to convince Pharaoh to release the Israelites from slavery. Moses was delivering this message directly from God to Pharaoh, who had repeatedly refused to let God's people go. The plagues were escalating in severity, demonstrating God's power over the Egyptian gods and nature itself.
