I Make You As God To Pharaoh
Why didn't Pharaoh have Moses killed? His predecessor tried assassinating Moses 40 years before (Exodus 2:15; 4:19). This was the first state sanctioned killing mentioned in the Bible. What kept Pharaoh from harming Moses? Or why didn't Pharaoh just refuse to see Moses after the first few times (Exodus 10:28)? The clue may be in Exodus 7:1.
And the LORD said to Moses,See, I make you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.(Exodus 7:1)1
God placed a mark on Cain so no one would kill him (Genesis 4:15). Surely being considered as a god would be higher protection than a mark on Cain. Note that the mark on Cain didn't prevent someone from actually killing him. Seven fold vengeance would be executed on anyone killing Cain. Cain's mark was only a deterrent. What God offered Moses was something much more powerful and useful.
The pharaohs of ancient Egypt were considered as descended from the gods and were treated as gods. God’s statement in Exodus 7:1 meant no one would dare harm Moses, and people would be unable to stop him from seeing Pharaoh. This, including his past reputation, was what made Moses great in the eyes of Hebrew and non-Hebrew alike.
And the LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover, the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and in the sight of the people. (Exodus 11:3)
The average life span in ancient Egypt was less than forty years. Many did not live past 35.2 Moses was 80 years old when he returned to Egypt, more than twice the norm (Exodus 7:7). His vitality even 40 years later was extraordinary (Deuteronomy 34:7). Anyone looking at Moses would see he was great.
This contrasts dramatically with Pharaoh, who was supposed to be descended from the gods, and who was supposed to be a god. Pharaoh was desperate to show he was a god. In the end he ruined Egypt (Exodus 8:24, 10:7). His constant broken word made him a liar. He was no god, and in the end hardly even a man. This is why Moses gave him a sarcastic reply, As you say! I will not see your face again.
(Exodus 10:29) The would be god king was incoherent, incompetent, and impotent.
Two words in God’s statement have to be examined. These are the highlighted words in the table below.
נביאך | יהיה | אחיך | ואהרן | לפרעה | אלהים | נתתיך | ראה | משה | אל | יהוה | ויאמר |
prophet-of-you | he-is | brother-of-you | and-Aaron | to-Pharaoh | God | I-made-you | see! | Moses | to | Yhwh | so-he-said |
Hebrew is read from right to left. |
For the first word, נתתיך Strong's Exhaustive Concordance gives this definition.

This is the same word used in Genesis 17:5.
No longer shall your name be Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. (Genesis 17:5)
Most Bibles do not translate this as I have made you as the father of a multitude of nations.
The Hebrew has no specific word as
just as it does not have a specific word of.
Thus Exodus 7:1 could be understood as God making Moses a god to Pharaoh in a more literal sense.
The second Hebrew word אלהים is Elohim, or gods.
God did not designate Moses as אל (El; god; singular) because this referred to Himself. God designated Moses as of gods
or as (one) of (the) gods.
(See The God Of Gods for the inclusion of the English word of
.)
Note the difference between God and Satan. The tree of knowledge is what gives humans the ability to know good and evil (Genesis 2:9). Nothing is said of becoming like God. This is Satan's lie. In Genesis 3:5, Satan tells Eve she would somehow, magically, or spontaneously become like God knowing good and evil. (Spontaneous evolution is a similar idea.) After Eve eats, she would know good and evil and spontaneously become like God. Satan does nothing, gives nothing and yet something more than just the knowledge of good and evil is supposed to happen. Here in Exodus 7:1, God says He will make Moses as a god to Pharaoh. That is how things really work.
This statement, I make you as God to Pharaoh
is unique in the Bible. It occurs nowhere else. Aside from protecting Moses, and giving him access to Pharaoh, there is a much more important purpose for having Moses as a god.
This is because God is rendering judgment on Egypt (Exodus 7:4). Egypt is being judged, and the judgment rendered is guilty! Egypt is guilty of oppression, and the blood of many Hebrew children (Exodus 1:16). It is blood guilt. Thus the very first plague is the plague of blood.
Numeric features mark the passage of God’s judgment on Egypt. It begins in Exodus 7:1 and runs to the end of 7:21. The numbers could have included the rest of the plagues, but then one would wonder why the destruction of the Egyptian army was left out (Exodus 14:13). By ending at 7:21, this covers the most important and essential part of the judgment. The remaining plagues on Egypt and everything after are because of this blood guilt.
1 And the LORD said to Moses,See, I make you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet. 2 You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall tell Pharaoh to let the people of Israel go out of his land. 3 But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and though I multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, 4 Pharaoh will not listen to you; then I will lay my hand upon Egypt and bring forth my hosts, my people the sons of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great acts of judgment. 5 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch forth my hand upon Egypt and bring out the people of Israel from among them.6 And Moses and Aaron did so; they did as the LORD commanded them. 7 Now Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty- three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh. 8 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, 9When Pharaoh says to you, `Prove yourselves by working a miracle,' then you shall say to Aaron, `Take your rod and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it may become a serpent.'10 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did as the LORD commanded; Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and his servants, and it became a serpent. 11 Then Pharaoh summoned the wise men and the sorcerers; and they also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same by their secret arts. 12 For every man cast down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods. 13 Still Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them; as the LORD had said. 14 Then the LORD said to Moses,Pharaoh's heart is hardened, he refuses to let the people go. 15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning, as he is going out to the water; wait for him by the river's brink, and take in your hand the rod which was turned into a serpent. 16 And you shall say to him, "The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, sent me to you, saying, 'Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness; and behold, you have not yet obeyed.' 17 Thus says the LORD, 'By this you shall know that I am the LORD: behold, I will strike the water that is in the Nile with the rod that is in my hand, and it shall be turned to blood, 18 and the fish in the Nile shall die, and the Nile shall become foul, and the Egyptians will loathe to drink water from the Nile.'"19 And the LORD said to Moses,Say to Aaron, `Take your rod and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, their canals, and their ponds, and all their pools of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.'20 Moses and Aaron did as the LORD commanded; in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants, he lifted up the rod and struck the water that was in the Nile, and all the water that was in the Nile turned to blood. 21 And the fish in the Nile died; and the Nile became foul, so that the Egyptians could not drink water from the Nile; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt. (Exodus 7:1-21)

Verse Features
1Total of all the verses: 79289 = 7 x 47 x 241. 79289 is easily recognizable as three numbers that are all divisible by 7.
70000 = 24 x 54 x 7. SF: 35 = 5 x 7. 9009 = 32 x 7 x 11 x 13. 280 = 23 x 5 x 7.
The largest number minus the two smaller yields three factors of 7: 60711 = 3 x 73 x 59.
1.1There are 21 verses (3 x 7).
1.2The 21 verses are placed in a 3 x 7 table. (The table is loaded top to bottom, row by row from left to right with each consecutive verse.)

1.2.1The first and last columns: 28088 + 28619 = 56707 = 7 x 8101. (Individually, these two columns have no feature, but together they do.)
1.2.2The middle column: 22582 = 2 x 7 x 1613.
1.3Five verses have the totals of the first and last letters of each word divisible by 7 when they are added together. (This is indicated by the letter 's' at the end of the number.

1.3.1Out of 21 verses, the odds would have suggested only 3 would be divisible by 7. Five is more than expected.
1.3.2Of the five, only one should have been a verse position divisible by 7. Two were. Curiously, the totals for these two verses together produce an extra factor of 7: 1925 + 2142 = 4067 = 72 x 83.
1.3.3All five verses together also produce an unexpected factor of 7: 1596 + 2037 + 924 + 1925 + 2142 = 8624 = 24 x 72 x 11.
1.3.4Only one verse has the first and last letters of each word producing a total divisible by 13. It is the 14th verse.
1.4These are the totals of the positions of the first and last letters of each word by verse.

Total: 39242 = 2 x 7 x 2803.
2.3The first and last words of the passage: 637 = 72 x 13. (Individually, the first word, and the last word have no feature by themselves. Together they produce much more, two factors of 7 and a factor of 13.)
One could say the first word points to the 257th word of the passage, and the last word points to the 380th word of the passage. The 257th word of the passage has a value of 256. There is no 380th word since the passage only has 325 words. The 55th word can be considered the 380th word (380 - 325 = 55; the word count wraps around to the beginning). The 55th word has a value of 541. The two words pointed out by the first and last words together total 797. This is not divisible by 7 or 13, but it is a symmetrical prime number with the first and last digits of 7.
There is only a difference of 1 between the 257th word and its value of 256. This leads to checking the difference with the last word of the passage. There is a difference of 161 between the 380th word and the 55th word's value of 541. The first difference is a reminder of the one God. The symmetry of the second difference is also a reminder of the one God who is beginning and end, and it is divisible by 7 (161 = 7 x 23).
In Revelation 1:8, God said He is Alpha and Omega. He is Alpha and Omega. He is Alpha. He is Omega.
2.4The first and last letters of each word: 35971 = 13 x 2767.
2.4.1The first letter of each word: 10972 = 22 x 13 x 211.
2.4.2The last letter of each word: 24999 = 3 x 13 x 641.
The number 13 is associated with the value of the name God gave in Hebrew: יהוה. Like a judge signing the verdict, God has written His name into each word of the judgment on Egypt.
2.5It's not just the first and last words or the first and last letters of each word that have numeric features. Groups of words from the beginning and from the end also have features. The list below is of paired groups of words symmetrically positioned from the beginning and from the end that individually, and together are divisible by 7.
(Reading the chart: The beginning position of the groups is listed in line a). The first number is 1. The first group of words begins with the first word at the beginning of the passage. The second group of words begins with the last word (i.e. the first word from the end of the passage). The ending position of the groups is listed in line b). The first number is 61. This means the first group's last word is the 61st word from the beginning of the passage. The second group's last word is the 61st word from the end of the passage.) The groups mirror each other in terms of placement.

2.5.1Total of the starting positions (line a): 13852 = 22 x 3463.
2.5.2Total of the ending positions (line b): 27609 = 3 x 9203.
2.5.3Total of the starting and ending positions: 13852 + 27609 = 41461 = 7 x 5923.
2.5.4Total of all these groups (line c): 6875729 = 72 x 140321. (An extra 7 appears.)
2.5.5There are 261 groups (32 x 29). This is not divisible by 7 or 13, but the sum of the factors has a numeric feature: 35 = 5 x 7.
What are the chances that in finding groups of words with totals divisible by 7 their positions would also be divisible by 7? A mathematician would say it was simply a 1 in 7 chance. Thus this could be coincidence. (This changes with the next feature.)
2.6What was done for paired groups of words being divisible by 7 can also be done for paired groups divisible by 13. There are 83 pairs.

2.6.1Total of the start positions (line a): 4216 = 23 x 17 x 31.
2.6.2Total of the end positions (line b): 8601 = 3 x 47 x 61.
2.6.3Total of the start and end positions: 4216 + 8601 = 12817 = 7 x 1831.
2.6.4Since these groups were chosen to be divisible by 13, all the groups together is also divisible by 13: 2198534 = 2 x 13 x 84559. The extra feature is the sum of the factors. There are two factors of 7: 84574 = 2 x 72 x 863.
Now there are two methods that produce the same result with the positions adding up to totals divisible by 7. This is a 1 in 49 chance, much rarer than a simple 1 in 7 chance. It is not impossible, but it is unlikely. However, when what is unlikely keeps happening, it can no longer be coincidence.
2.7Taking every Nth word, the following values of N produce sequences divisible by 7:
2 5 7 11 17 20 24 26 32 36 43 51 52 58 60 71 73 81 82 86 88 94 95 111 114 121 131 140 152
Total of N: 1883 = 7 x 269.
The first to succeed is 2, and the last to succeed is 152: 2 + 152 = 154 (2 x 7 x 11).
2.8168 words are even valued (23 x 3 x 7}.

Total of the words: 38662 = 2 x 13 x 1487. (There is no corresponding feature with the odd valued words.)
2.8.1First and last even numbered words: 26 + 380 = 406 (2 x 7 x 29).
2.8.2Seventeen of the 168 even valued words are divisible by 7. Their positions in the list of 168 even valued words total 1281 (3 x 7 x 61).
2.8.3Twenty-one (3 x 7) of the 168 even valued words are divisible by 13.
2.8.3.1The first of the even valued words to be divisible by 13 is the second word in the passage. The last of the even valued words to be divisible by 13 is the 323rd word in the passage. Thus the passage positions of the first and last even valued words divisible by 13 together total 325, which is the exact number of words in the passage and is divisible by 13.
2.8.3.2The positions in the list of 168 even valued words for the two words in 2.8.3.1 are 1 and 167, which together is 168 (the exact number of even numbered words, and is divisible by 7).
2.9There are 157 words that are odd valued. Their total yields no feature. Nine of them are divisible by 13.
Word position: 10 18 20 43 84 105 180 195 229 Word value: 39 117 39 91 351 91 91 65 65
2.9.1The sum of these words is naturally divisible by 13: 949 = 13 x 73. The interesting part is that it is a symmetrical number where the first two or last two digits add up to 13.
2.9.2The positions of these words is also divisible by 13: 884 = 22 x 13 x 17.
2.9.3Exactly 7 of the 157 odd valued words are divisible by 7.
Word position: 8 43 58 81 105 180 322 Word value: 385 91 441 441 91 91 49
The sum of these words is naturally divisible by 7: 1589 = 7 x 227. The extra feature is in the sum of the factors: 234 = 2 x 32 x 13. And this goes another level of factors: 21 = 3 x 7. The positions of these words is not divisible by 7 or 13, but it is a symmetrical number: 797.
2.10Total of words that are odd valued and in odd positions or even valued and in even positions (i.e. the same): 19814 + 21199 = 41013 = 33 x 72 x 31.
2.10.1Total of words that are even valued and odd positioned or odd valued and even valued (i.e. mixed): 19428 + 18848 = 38276 = 22 x 7 x 1367. SF: 1378 = 2 x 13 x 53.
2.12Seventy-eight words are prime numbers (2 x 3 x 13). Two hundred and forty-seven words are not prime numbers (13 x 19).
2.13Highest and lowest words: 1136 + 19 = 1155 = 3 x 5 x 7 x 11. SF: 26 = 2 x 13.
2.14Words with the value 26 appeared the most at 15 times.
2.15Since there are 325 words, it is easy to divide the words into groups of 25 each. Alternating or odd positioned groups do not produce a total divisible by 7 or 13. In this case, the groups are divided into two categories depending on whether their total is odd or even valued.
2.15.1Odd valued groups of 25:
257 26 31 345 206 880 86 385 262 39 30 83 406 606 401 50 501 117 262 39 216 31 355 344 401 62 541 337 67 406 401 32 355 633 401 811 407 536 293 380 37 420 91 355 866 401 24 382 518 401 503 401 120 62 541 331 380 441 87 96 380 30 61 26 471 401 24 100 380 518 401 62 541 506 386 345 262 521 101 26 441 70 376 351 52 440 355 262 52 630 446 355 248 31 355 257 26 31 345 37 380 101 70 382 311 60 37 580 118 54 256 401 489 131 32 355 37 410 76 521 206 26 257 26 31 345 26 32 355 91 368 115 50 31 355 304 60 101 100 548 737 100 780 216 65 501 155 388 508 36 647 47 26 46 327 398 61 271 338 401 120 152 248 66 31 810 74 25 25 241 26 410 474 30 61 257 26 31 345 241 31 256 108 69 70 34 100 100 380 100 695 100 266 106 99 106 50 151 145 37 92 127 50 95 501 213 74 23 501 213 445 319 216 37 66 380 1136 90 90 216 31 49 52 291 380
Total: 55839 = 3 x 7 x 2659.
2.15.2Even valued groups of 25:
256 271 30 216 91 355 271 456 90 526 647 31 256 108 401 69 361 170 355 25 540 19 345 262 31 355 392 70 521 101 26 366 256 401 60 170 355 176 92 31 540 317 43 355 148 526 392 43 45 267 26 60 81 65 56 501 26 100 95 501 213 167 74 23 501 213 846 309 216 93 380 1136 90 90 216 44 26 44 52 291 380 218 111 392 70 345 262 521 101 26 256 56 36 401 95 501 213 170 355 176
Total: 23450 = 2 x 52 x 7 x 67.
Letter Features
3Odd positioned letters in the passage: 39683 = 7 x 5669.
3.1Even positioned letters in the passage: 39606 = 2 x 3 x 7 x 23 x 41.
3.2Revelation 1:8's Alpha and Omega don't just refer to the first and last letters of each word, or the first and last word of a verse, or the first and last verse of a chapter. They can refer to the first and last appearance of a letter or word.
The following letters have their first and last appearances within a word in an odd position.
A B C D E F 1 65718 3324 223 3 1 6 68409 3193 232 1 1 200 56966 3038 304 5 3 A: Letter value. B: Position within the passage. C: Position within a verse. D: Position within a word. E: First appearance in a word. F: Last appearance in a word.
The following letters have their first and last appearances within a word in an even position.
A B C D E F 4 18091 1119 61 2 2 7 1474 15 6 4 2 8 7135 437 34 2 2 10 94646 5633 452 2 4 80 12577 916 50 2 4 90 14830 1174 64 2 2 100 5887 257 21 2 2 300 31644 1446 128 2 2 A: Letter value. B: Position within the passage. C: Position within a verse. D: Position within a word. E: First appearance in a word. F: Last appearance in a word.
This eliminates all letters where their first and last appearances are in mixed positions of odd and even.
3.2.1Together, all these letters total 806 = 2 x 13 x 31.
3.2.2Their positions in the passage total 377377 = 7 x 11 x 132 x 29.
3.2.3Their positions within each verse total 20552 = 23 x 7 x 367.
3.2.4Their positions within each word total 1575 = 32 x 52 x 7.
3.3.1Total of the positions within each word where the letter 40 appeared is a multiple of 7: 364 = 22 x 7 x 13.
3.3.2Total of the positions within each word where the letter 100 appeared is also a multiple of 7: 112 = 24 x 7.
3.3.3These are the only two letters where their positions within a word add to a multiple of 7. Thus these two letters can go together: 40 + 100 = 140 (22 x 5 x 7).
3.3.4Three letters have the total of their positions within each word divisible by 13.
Letter: 3 9 40 Position in word: 13 39 364
Total of these letters: 3 + 9 + 40 = 52 = 22 x 13.
3.4.1Total of the positions of the letter 3 within the passage is a multiple of 13: 4407 = 3 x 13 x 113.
3.4.2Total of the positions of the letter 200 within the passage is also a multiple of 13: 56966 = 2 x 7 x 13 x 313.
3.4.3These are the only two letters where this is so: 3 + 200 = 203 = 7 x 29.
3.5.1Total of the positions of the letter 9 within each verse is a multiple of 13: 533 = 13 x 41.
3.5.2Total of the positions of the letter 30 within each verse: 2717 = 11 x 13 x 19.
3.5.3These two letters together: 9 + 30 = 39 = 3 x 13.
3.6.1From feature 3.1, take the first half of the list: 18333 = 33 x 7 x 97.
3.6.2From feature 3.1, take the last half of the list: 21273 = 3 x 7 x 1013.
3.6.3From the complete list of letters, add up the odd positioned pairs of letters: 42714 = 2 x 33 x 7 x 113.
3.6.4From the complete list of letters, add up the even positioned pairs of letters: 36575 = 52 x 7 x 11 x 19.
3.7Exactly 105 (3 x 5 x 7) pairs of letters can be found that are positioned Nth and Nth last in the passage, and whose values when added together are divisible by 7.

Conclusion
God is clearly very much present and active in these events (Exodus 7:1-21). Numeric features in each level of the passage, in the verses, words and letters all flow with God’s actions. All this highlights the historic events at the beginning of The Exodus. God wants us to know what happened in ancient times.
The magicians of Egypt succeeded in duplicating the first three miracles: staves into serpents (Exodus 7:12), water into blood (7:22), and frogs from the waters (8:7). (Never mind the fact that they could only reproduce these miracles on a small scale and could not reverse them.) It would seem they should have been able to turn dust to gnats, especially if this was only a matter of sleight-of-hand. Thus there are two ways of reading (Exodus 8:18). A) For some reason, their magical arts did not include this ability. B) Something prevented them from succeeding when they should have. The first reason is not really plausible. Not having a particular ability is no reason to conclude someone who could do it was a god or had divine assistance. It might only be a matter of time before one discovered how to duplicate the feat. The latter possibility appears much more likely and explains the magicians' words this is the finger of God.
(Note: the actual Hebrew for God
is Elohim, the plural: this is the finger of the gods.
) The wise men of Egypt could normally produce gnats, but this time inexplicably failed. This was a sign of divine power against them. Pharaoh had every proof right near the beginning he was facing God, but he refused to accept the evidence before his eyes. Exodus 7:1-21 is a clear warning of the stubborn blindness that grips and traps proud rulers who think they can oppose God, or who think they are somehow special enough to be gods. The only way to be a god is if God makes you one.
