Exodus 3:20

"I know that the king of Egypt won’t give you permission to go, no, not by a mighty hand."

Key Reflection

Exodus 3:20 describes God's divine plan for Moses and the Israelites' liberation from Egyptian slavery. Despite Pharaoh’s formidable power and resistance, as symbolized by his "mighty hand," God promises to ensure that the Egyptians will be compelled to release the Israelites through a series of events, including providing their families with valuable items like silver, gold, and clothing. This act of plundering the Egyptians serves both as a means of compensation for the years of servitude and as a demonstration of divine power, underscoring God's ability to overcome even the most powerful earthly rulers.
