Jumping back into the Old Testament today with Exodus 11. This is right at the end of the plagues God brought on Egypt through Moses. This is the event remembered in the Passover feast. It is also a type* of the death of Christ.
Exod 11:7 ~ God once again demonstrates His favor to His people.
Exod 11:8 ~ "Then he went out from Pharaoh in great anger." I wonder if Moses was angry because he knew Pharaoh would ignore his warning or because of what the warning entailed?
Exod 11:9 ~ God knew that Pharaoh wouldn't budge until after this great tragedy occurred, but He had plans to use Pharaoh's stubbornness to accomplish His own goals.
*type: a symbol of something in the future, as an Old Testament event serving as a prefiguration of a New Testament event.
