LESSON 99: FIRST AUDIENCE WITH PHARAOH — 'LET MY PEOPLE GO'

Exodus 5:1–5 marks the dramatic opening confrontation between divine sovereignty and human

tyranny. Moses and Aaron enter the royal Egyptian court, delivering Yahweh's royal decree: 'Let My

people go.' Pharaoh responds with arrogant defiance: 'Who is the Lord, that I should obey Him?' This

central question sets the stage for the epic conflict that will demonstrate God's supreme power over all

the gods of Egypt.
