Episode 9
In Exodus 9, the Lord warns Egypt before the storm, revealing mercy even amid judgement. Pharaoh hardens his heart, as evildoers often do once danger passes. This episode reflects on divine patience, and how the G-d of Israel, and Israel itself, still mirror that mercy in times of conflict.
