Moses and Aaron Before Pharaoh

Moses and Aaron stand in the royal court of Egypt before a crowned Pharaoh seated on an ornate throne. The ruler extends his hand in authority while servants and burdened Hebrews fill the chamber, placing the confrontation within the oppression of Israel in Egypt. The scene portrays the beginning of the Exodus conflict, when God’s messengers demanded freedom for His covenant people and Pharaoh resisted the word of the Lord. The palace setting, Egyptian symbols, scepter, throne, and gathered witnesses emphasize the clash between earthly power and divine command. This artwork serves well for teaching on Exodus, deliverance, obedience, hardened hearts, and God’s sovereignty over kings. by S. M. Davis
