The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: EXO 5:14 And the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaoh's
taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and demanded, Wherefore have
ye not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and to day, as
heretofore?
EXO 5:15 Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried
unto Pharaoh, saying, Wherefore dealest thou thus with thy servants?
EXO 5:16 There is no straw given unto thy servants, and they say to us,
Make brick: and, behold, thy servants are beaten; but the fault is in
thine own people.
EXO 5:17 But he said, Ye are idle, ye are idle: therefore ye say, Let
us go and do sacrifice to the LORD.
