‘Meet the Lord God who knows His plans’ (Exodus 6:10-7:14)

After Moses heard back from the Lord God that He would do as He had promised, in Exodus 6:10-7:14, we find again the narrative of this tense looming showdown between the Lord and Pharaoh, bookending a section where suddenly there is a whole genealogy of Moses and Aaron. What’s going on? Only just that Moses wants the people of Israel to know that it was this Moses and this Aaron whom the Lord called and sent to go toi Pharaoh – even despite the fact that the Lord knew that the King wouldn’t listen. God’s plans for His people always include His people. That is why we are called to be His witnesses in every place.

Some things hadn’t gone well!

Were sent back to Pharaoh (v.10-17)
