The dilemma is that any first-born in the land of Egypt will be
struck down unless there is blood on the door or door post. If
anyone who is supposed to recieve the message fails to heed the
message or non-Egyptian who doesn't leave the land of Egypt, then
the innocent is punished.
but there is nobody who is innocent in the first place wat.
everyone has sinned.
a dilemma is when both choices have bad outcome isn't it?
the way i see it, they have a choice to live or die. and they
made the choice to obey God and lived.
they were the slaves of the eygptians, treated worse than a
beast of burden. They obeyed God, and the eygptians paid for their
mistreatment of the israelites, and God led them out of eygpt, the
land of slavery.
and look, now they are the nation of israel. so how was it a
dilemma?
put it in a modern prespective: now got the H1N1 virus. you're
asked to practice proper hygene. is that choice to obey this
practice very difficult - so morally difficult until it must be
called a dilemma?
so do you actually know what point you wish to make?
