Graphic Bible · Scene 8 of 13

Exodus 10:18-18. He pleaded with Yahweh. Moses has left Pharaoh and pleads with Yahweh outside the Egyptian palace during the locust plague. Intimate side-profile medium portrait of elder Moses in crimson mantle, cream robe, long white hair and beard. One hand lifted open in earnest prayer and other rests on gnarled staff. A sparse stripped branch and plain ochre wall frame the scene; several small brown locusts perch on branch and drift through air, their long hind legs clearly distinct from flies. Muted daylight under swarm haze, no magical light, no visible deity. No Aaron or Pharaoh. Natural five-finger hand and calm resolute face, textured hand-inked gouache, no lettering. Bronze Age Exodus setting, not first-century staging. One 16:9 single scene. No text or lettering.
Artwork is an interpretation. Scripture is quoted from the People's Open Bible.
