This verse shows Pharaoh choosing to become even more stubborn and refusing to release the Israelites from slavery, despite seeing God's power.
📚 Historical Context
In the book of Exodus, the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt, and God sent Moses to confront Pharaoh and demand their freedom through a series of miraculous plagues. Despite seeing God's power demonstrated in events like the plague of flies, Pharaoh consistently chose to resist, refusing to release the people as a sign of his pride and defiance. This verse marks another instance of Pharaoh's hardening after temporarily relenting, highlighting the escalating tension in the narrative of Israel's deliverance.
