Exodus 5 - the Pharaoh is Even More Heartless

Moses and Aaron visited the Pharaoh with God's message to him advising him to let the people go into the desert and celebrate a feast in honor of God or they may suffer pestilence or the sword.

The Pharaoh was quite upset with the request stating that their God  meant little to him so he gave orders to the foremen to no longer provide them with straw to make their brick but to order them to find their own and still make as many bricks as before. The foremen pleaded with the Pharaoh telling him that the workers were already overworked and the Pharaoh would not budge, so then they cried to Aaron and Moses. Moses then accused God of having placed His people into a worse plight than they were already in.
 
Thank you so much for visiting me today. May God richly bless you and the reading of His word.
