For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.

They embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.”

In all their work they ruthlessly made them work as slaves.” —Exodus 1:11-14 ESV
