Exodus 7:25Seven days were fulfilled, after Yahweh had struck the river.
The setting
Egypt, ~1446 BC. The Nile River runs red with blood for exactly seven days. Dead fish float everywhere, the stench is unbearable. Modern-day Egypt along the Nile River.
The emotion here: awe at recording divine precision in judgment
The original word
mālē' (מָלֵא) — completed, fulfilled, reached full measure
Why it matters
The Nile was considered the lifeblood of Egypt and was worshipped as the god Hapi
