Then the Lord gave these instructions to Moses: “Order the Israelites to turn back and camp by Pi-hahiroth between Midgol and the sea. Then Pharaoh will think ‘The Israelites are confused. They are trapped in the wilderness.” And once again, I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will chase after you. I have planned this in order to display My glory through Pharaoh and his whole army. After this the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord!” So the Israelites camped there as they were told. (vv. 1-4, NLT)
