The frog plague, as described in the Bible, was a divine punishment where the Nile River, and subsequently the entire land of Egypt, was overrun with an overwhelming number of frogs.
This plague is recounted in the Book of Exodus as the second of ten plagues visited upon the Egyptians to persuade Pharaoh to release the Israelites from slavery. According to the biblical narrative, the frog infestation was so extreme that the amphibians entered houses, bedrooms, and even ovens, causing widespread distress and discomfort.
The account states that the plague was a direct consequence of Pharaoh's refusal to heed God's demand, delivered by Moses, to free the Israelites. Only after enduring the misery and disruption caused by the pervasive frogs did Pharaoh temporarily relent and request Moses to intercede with God to remove the plague. However, after the frogs died, Pharaoh hardened his heart and refused to let the Israelites go, leading to the subsequent plagues.
