Exodus 5:15

Context
NETBible

1 The Israelite foremen went and cried out to Pharaoh, “Why are you treating 2  your servants this way?

NET © Notes

sn The last section of this event tells the effect of the oppression on Israel, first on the people (15-19) and then on Moses and Aaron (20-21). The immediate reaction of Israel was to cry to Pharaoh – something they would learn should be directed to God. When Pharaoh rebuffed them harshly, they turned bitterly against their leaders.

tn The imperfect tense should be classified here with the progressive imperfect nuance, because the harsh treatment was a present reality.
