What does the Bible say about blain?
Bible Topic · WEB
The Bible presents blains as painful sores in the plague God sent upon Egypt, displaying his righteous judgment and sovereign power. In Exodus 9:9, the dust scattered by Moses becomes fine dust that produces boils breaking out in blains on people and animals throughout Egypt. Exodus 9:10 records the plague’s immediate fulfillment, even affecting the magicians who had opposed God’s servant. This event was not random suffering but a warning to Pharaoh and Egypt that the Lord alone is God and that hardened rebellion against him brings judgment. Yet Scripture’s larger message also calls sinners to humble repentance and to seek mercy in the Lord, who saves his people through Christ.
