One of my favorite bloggers, Noah Millman of Gideon's Blog, has posted an
interesting explication of one of the great scriptural conundrums:
What does it mean that God hardened Pharaoh's heart, so he would not release the Hebrews? How could God then justly punish Pharaoh for his obstinance?
Noah's take is a little different from most, I think.
