locust in Exodus 10
LOH-kust
This creature shows up in Exodus 10:4: “Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Exodus 10:4
“Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,”
