Commentators agree this verse reveals God's sovereign plan. Pharaoh's stubbornness was not a surprise but was foretold to Moses from the start. This resistance was part of God's purpose to multiply His wonders, display His power to both Israelites and Egyptians, and make the final deliverance even more glorious.
