It is to do with the Pharoah's actions. I've always assumed that the Pharoah was a little bit high on the power that was given to him, and he had an issue with the authority of God, and he attempted to do his own thing, which was to make God's people slaves, and stop them from freely worshipping Yahweh. If that was the case, I'd say that it does make sense, and that it was Just to teach Pharoah a lesson. But reading something in thre, threw in a spanner in the works for me. It says, on numerous occasions, that it was God who made Pharoah's heart stubborn. I know he didn't do that straight away, but it was essentially stopping the Jews from escaping.
I think I'll make this a part 1 of 2, I'm going to read the story from the start, because this is troubling me. I want to see where about's it starts saying God made Pharoahs heart stubborn. I think on the behalf of all the First Borns in Egypt, if it was God controlling pharoah, that's not good.
