Revision as of 21:02, 3 May 2006 by Gzuckier (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)In Exodus 5, after Moses and Aaron meet with Pharoah and deliver God's message, "Let my people go", Pharoah not only refuses but punishes the Israelites by telling his overseers, "Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves", but still requiring the same daily output of bricks as before. The Israelites complain to Moses and Aaron that he has now made things worse for them, and Moses in turn complains to God that every time he has gone to Pharoah on behalf of the Israelites, things have gotten worse for them.
