An ApplicationEX 5:17 the hyperbole we use, the excuses we make up. They weren't lazy. EX 5:19 following God is sometimes very costly. EX 5:21 how human to presume to speak for God when it's just our own feelings. / EX 6:12 was it ever going to be Moses who convinced Pharaoh, or was it always going to be God. He calls us to obey more than to get results.

Connect the DotsEX 5:2 was a "career limiting comment," then in EX 5:9 pharaoh declared belief in the living God was a false religion not worthy of his time, let alone his obedience. This pharaoh was only a few generations after Amenemhat III, but the pharaohs reigns were very short during this time, according to Egyptologists, implying political factions and unrest, so it's unlikely this Pharaoh would have grown up with Moses, as fun and simple as that makes the movies.
