day no. 14,344: hot nostrils

Exodus 11:8
And he (Moses) went out from Pharaoh in hot anger.

Hubris is always hard to watch. The Hebrew here is literally, "hot nostrils." Moses was very angry. The kind of angry we get when we breath heavily and hotly through our noses with our jaws clenched tightly and blood pressure soaring. Moses was mad. Pharaoh would not listen. He was walking into a furnace insisting he was flame retardant.

  1. Moses wasn't tolerant. He wasn't like, "Oh, well, let him live his truth. Who's he hurting?" No, Pharaoh was wrong, and Moses was MAD.
