Exodus 5:1 - 7:7
ExodusSteve Gregg
In Exodus 5:1-7:7, Moses and Aaron ask Pharaoh to let the Israelites go for three days to worship God, but Pharaoh refuses and makes their work harder by not providing them with straw for their bricks. Moses doubts his ability to be heard due to his unclean speech, but Yahweh designates him as his mouthpiece to Pharaoh and promises to show his strong hand. The chapter provides a genealogy of Aaron's descendants and emphasizes that the hardening of Pharaoh's heart is an administrative decision to carry out God's plan to judge Egypt with ten plagues.
