We did not have Bible Study on Thursday night due to a combination of busy schedules and bad weather, so we will continue this week, Lord willing.
This morning, we studied Exodus 5-6:13, where Moses and Aaron appear before Pharaoh to relay God's command to let the Israelites go free. Of course, Pharaoh refuses and responds by increasing the toil of the Israelites by withholding straw for their bricks, making them gather it themselves with no reduction in quota. In this, Pharaoh not only succeeded in declaring his non-submission to God, but also in turning the people against Moses and Aaron. Discouraged, Moses offers an honest prayer of frustration to God, who, in response, assures Moses of his plan to redeem his people and reveals himself to them as LORD, a level of intimacy not previously offered to mankind.
