Why did God harden Pharaoh's heart?
Old Testament scholar (and Holy Post pundit!) Carmen Imes joins Kaitlyn to talk about a question both little kids and grown ups ask a lot: why did God harden Pharaoh’s heart? Was God causing Pharaoh to do something evil? Was God overriding Pharaoh’s free will? Dr. Imes teaches us about the Hebrew words for “hardening” a heart, how historical background can help us understand this passage, and what the larger theology of the story teaches us about God. 0:00 - Show Starts 1:35 - Theme Song 2:32 - Why Did God Harden Pharaoh’s Heart? 8:17 - What is a “Hard Heart?” 17:50 - Sponsor - Blueland - For 15% off first order of Blueland cleaning products, go to this link: https://www.blueland.com/CURIOUSLY 19:05 - Sponsor - Zocdoc - Stop putting off those doctor’s appointments!

Is it wrong to doubt God?

Do you have questions about theology, the Bible, or the church that you’re too afraid to ask? Tired of pastors and scholars using unfamiliar language or overly complicated explanations?
