What does Exodus 10:19 mean?

Because Egypt's king refused to release Hebrew slaves (Exodus 1:11–14; 10:3), the nation suffered the predicted (Exodus 10:4–6) plague of locusts (Exodus 10:15–17). In a panic, the king—the pharaoh—begged Moses for relief (Exodus 10:16–17). Moses prayed on Egypt's behalf, so God dissipates the insects by reversing the wind which brought them there. The language here is specific, indicating that literally every locust, without exception, was driven away. This further proves that the event is supernatural, as this had been the densest, largest swarm that would ever be seen in that nation (Exodus 10:14).

This is the first time the Red Sea is mentioned in the book of Exodus. Later, the recently-freed Israelites will cross the sea while God makes a path of dry land through the water (Exodus 14:21–22). When the Egyptian army pursues, God closes the water over them and they are all drowned (Exodus 14:27–28). The Red Sea later becomes the southern border of the Promised Land which God gave to the people (Exodus 23:31).
