Come and study the Holy Scriptures with us as Father Stephen DeYoung teaches verse by verse on the podcast, The Whole Council of God.

Father Stephen holds a Ph.D. in biblical studies.

And it's an Orthodox priest serving at Archangel Gabriel Orthodox Church in Lafayette, Louisiana.

The Lord said to Moses, see, I have made you a God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall

be your prophet.

Right?

So he says, look at it this way.

Moses, pretend you're me.

Aaron will be your prophet.

He will go and speak for you.

You stand behind him. Look intimidating with the beard and everything. And, right, and he'll do the talking for you since you apparently

have such a problem with it. You shall speak all I command you, and Aaron your brother shall speak to

Pharaoh to send the children of Israel from his land.

I will harden Pharaoh's heart and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

But Pharaoh will not heed you and I shall lay my hand on Egypt and bring my people, the children of Israel,

out of the land of Egypt with my power and great vengeance.

So let's pause there.

So again, he's telling Moses, because apparently Moses loses heart very easily.

Right.

You need to go and tell Pharaoh what I tell you.

Let me tell you right now.

You're going to tell him to let the people go.
