Exodus (pt. 9)
Did Pharaoh repent?
We tend to think about Pharaoh during the Ten Plagues as entirely immovable. We imagine that he is consistent and unemotional in his responses as he rejects Moses' requests to release the Israelites. However, a careful study of the text gives us a different picture. Pharaoh does change along the way! He negotiates with Moses, and his responses loosen up as the plagues' nature increases. In this video, we follow the trajectory of Pharaoh's responses. The language he uses towards the final stages of the plagues is very close to what we would consider repentance.
