Graphic Bible · Scene 2 of 11

Exodus 8:4-7. Plead for me. Pharaoh asks Moses and Aaron to plead for removal of frogs. Inside the established Egyptian audience hall, Pharaoh leans forward from the familiar throne with one open imploring hand, strained expression, his blue/gold nemes and white linen retained. Moses in crimson stands at left answering calmly, long white hair/beard and gnarled staff; Aaron in indigo stands beside him attentively, short gray curls/rounded beard. Exactly these three principal people. A number of ordinary LIVE small green-brown frogs occupy the stone floor and one low throne step; none dead yet. The final reference is hall architecture only; replace earlier refusal gesture with request for relief. No snake, flies, river, supernatural aura or lettering. One coherent 16:9 panel with faces and gesture readable. 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.

4Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said, “Pray to Yahweh, that he may remove the frogs from me and from my people, and I will let the people go, so that they may sacrifice to Yahweh.”

5And Moses said to Pharaoh, “Have this honor over me: when shall I plead for you, for your servants, and for your people, to cut off the frogs from you and from your houses? Only in the Nile shall they remain.”

6He said, “Tomorrow.” And he said, “According to your word, so that you may know that there is no one like Yahweh our God.”

7And the frogs will depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people; only in the Nile will they remain.
