Day 28...(Exodus 5,6; Psalm 28)..."The Straw that Broke the Hebrews Back"

The Hebrew people were slaves in Egypt and they were placed under impossible demands. When Pharaoh ordered them make bricks and gather their own straw you might say it was..." the straw that broke the Hebrews back." Here is the encounter..."That same day Pharaoh gave this order to the slave drivers and foremen in charge of the people: You are no longer to supply the people with straw for making bricks; let them go and gather their own straw. But require them to make the same number of bricks as before; don't reduce the quota. They are lazy; that is why they are crying out, 'Let us go and sacrifice to our God.' Make the work harder for the men so that they keep working and pay no attention to lies." Pharaoh did not have a clue of the power He was encountering! Stay tuned.
