Israel is my firstborn son

Exodus 4:22-23

Then say to Pharaoh,

'This is what the LORD says:

Israel is my firstborn son,

and I told you, "Let my son go, so he may worship me."

But you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son.' "

He must threaten Pharaoh with the death of the first-born of Egypt, in case of a refusal: I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn. As men deal with God's people, let them expect to be themselves dealt with; with the froward he will wrestle.
