YouTube description

In this excerpt, Thomas Schreiner addresses one of the most difficult and debated themes in Scripture: the hardening of Pharaoh’s heart. Did Pharaoh harden his own heart, or did God harden it?

Schreiner explains that the biblical text affirms both. God is fully sovereign—even over the human heart—yet Pharaoh remains morally responsible for his actions. Scripture does not resolve this tension philosophically, but clearly holds both truths together.

This passage reminds us that God’s sovereignty does not remove human responsibility. Both are real, and both must be held together as Scripture presents them.

Diamonds From Scripture is a growing theological archive curated by two brothers studying theology. Our goal is to collect and organize the clearest biblical insights from trusted pastors and scholars so that pastors, theology students, and serious Bible readers can engage Scripture more deeply.

Clips are organized around Scripture, doctrine, and teacher, forming a growing library of biblical theology for the global Church. New clips regularly feature insights from theologians such as John MacArthur, Thomas Schreiner, John Piper, D.A. Carson, and others.
