The Five Books of Moses

From Exodus 7: My imagination takes me to Pharaoh's throne-room where his courtiers are pacing around and muttering That Moses needs to go down! Those Hebrews need to be punished again! Only a small percentage of the Egyptian population grumbled against Moses; most of them were friendly with their Hebrew counterparts and willingly shared their silver and gold with them as parting gifts. (My goodness prosperity in a time when the world is falling apart — imagine that!) Shows how out-of-touch with the grassroots that politicians can be. Then there's this Tweet that Moses sends to Pharaoh as a parting shot: All these your servants will come down to me and bow themselves before me saying 'Go out you and all the people who follow you' and after that I will go out. And he went out from Pharaoh in hot anger (Exodus 11:8). Sounds familiar? I guess people haven't changed that much in 5000 years.
