Commentary on Exodus 14:3
God predicts Pharaoh's interpretation: 'They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.' The verb 'entangled' (Hebrew 'buk,' בּוּךְ—confused, perplexed) pictures Israel as lost wanderers. God orchestrates circumstances to appear as vulnerable foolishness, baiting the enemy into overconfidence. The phrase 'I will harden Pharaoh's heart' shows God controlling even the enemy's response to accomplish redemptive purposes.
