Pharaoh

Pharaoh is a title used by the ancient Egyptian kings. The word "Pharaoh" comes from the Egyptian word "per-aa" which means "great house." The Pharaoh was considered to be the ruler of all Egypt and was considered to be a divine being. He was responsible for the administration of the country, the maintenance of law and order, and the protection of the people. Pharaohs ruled Egypt for thousands of years, and the history of ancient Egypt is divided into several different dynasties based on the reigns of different Pharaohs. Some of the most famous Pharaohs include Tutankhamun, Ramses II, and Cleopatra VII. In the Bible, Pharaoh is most famously known as the ruler during the time of Moses and the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt. According to the biblical account, Pharaoh was the ruler of Egypt when the Israelites were living in the land as slaves. When Moses arrived and demanded that Pharaoh release the Israelites, Pharaoh refused and instead increased the burden of slavery on the Israelites. This led to a series of ten plagues that ultimately resulted in Pharaoh agreeing to release the Israelites from slavery. The exact dates of the Pharaohs and their reigns are not specified in the Bible, but their stories have been the subject of much historical and religious scholarship. The Pharaohs continue to be a fascinating subject for historians, archaeologists, and biblical scholars, and their rule over ancient Egypt remains one of the most well-known and enduring chapters in the history of the ancient world.

Pharaoh was mentioned 279 times in the Bible.

first mention in the bible is in the book of Genesis, chapter 12, verse 15.
