Every firstborn son in Egypt will die, from the firstborn son of Pharaoh, who sits on the throne, to the firstborn of the slave girl, who is at her hand mill, and all the firstborn of the cattle as well.

You seem to be so enthusiastic about demonizing Jews that you even ignore that this is a story about enslaved people trying to leave.

I think people working on plantations from dawn to sunset till they can work no more would identify quite a lot with this passage.

There can't possibly be any irony, since I've explicitly said "Jews" and not Israelis.

Your attempts to blend in with normal people are, of course, disgusting, but also as subtle as a Nigerian spy in Siberia.
