What Does Exodus 10:15 Mean?
The plague reduces Egypt to total desolation. The darkening of the land by the sheer number of locusts creates a physical, sensory nightmare. The consumption of 'all fruit of the trees' means not just immediate hunger but the loss of future harvests. Food security is obliterated.
The repeated emphasis on 'nothing green remaining' drives home the finality of the judgment. There is no recovery, no hope, no escape. The agricultural base of Egyptian civilization is stripped away, and famine will follow.
