But that would be a different reason then what is stated. Also God knew Pharaoh would reject miracles but still sent him miracles.

I read tafsirs regarding this issue. The way they explain it is that it was a mercy from God because God didn't want to punish them, and they bring a hadith to support this. Only thing is that is completely different reason then what is stated in verse 17:59. This tells me, no one was really satisfied with what 17:59 stated and came up with their own reasons.
Quote:Most questions of "why" are unanswerable because I don't know Divine wisdom, I don't have Divine knowledge. Asking why God did such and such CAN be answered in some circumstances but not most if the time because this is a type of knowledge known to Him alone as it states in the Qur'an.
But he could have explained why or better yet have sent miracles right away like he did in the past.

Well maybe there is nothing you can do for me but I can help you see the problems with these verses.
