The present research makes a brief study of geographical, historical, cultural and religious of one of the nations that has kept secrets since its beginnings. Archaeologists are still surprised by the findings of the Egyptian culture. Its political and social organization always had a strong religious aspect. Even their great constructions tell us about the conception of religion in their daily life.
The deities in ancient Egypt were very diverse, although in the biblical account we do not get to know their names, the Bible presents the religious notions of Egypt. The biblical authors present in several passages of the Bible Egypt and its Pharaoh as nations that are against the divine designs.
At the end of the investigation, a theological analysis is made on why God sends 10 plagues to the Egyptians, giving the reader a new perspective on the Exodus story. In short, God is the only God and outside of Him there is no other deity, any manifestation of a being who perceives himself as a god and influences his nation for his subsequent worship will have to face the creator of the universe.
