📚 Historical Context
This verse comes just before Moses begins confronting Pharaoh to demand the release of the Israelites from slavery.

The hardening of Pharaoh's heart would lead to increasingly dramatic displays of God's power that would ultimately free His people and demonstrate His supremacy over Egyptian gods.
