  • Exodus 1:7-11
    But the Israelites were fruitful, increased rapidly, multiplied, and became extremely numerous so that the land was filled with them.A new king, who did not know about Joseph, came to power in Egypt.He said to his people,“ Look, the Israelite people are more numerous and powerful than we are.Come, let’s deal shrewdly with them; otherwise they will multiply further, and when war breaks out, they will join our enemies, fight against us, and leave the country.”So the Egyptians assigned taskmasters over the Israelites to oppress them with forced labor. They built Pithom and Rameses as supply cities for Pharaoh.
