4390 Here are three types of Unfaith, each showing a different phase, and yet all united in opposition to the Truth and Mission of Moses. (1) Pharaoh is the type of arrogance, cruelty, and reliance on brute force; Cf.
28:38-39. (2) Haman was Pharaoh's minister (n. 3331 to
28:6; also
28:38): he was the type of a sycophant who would pander to the vanity of any man in power. (3) Qarun excelled in his wealth, was selfish in its use, and overbearing to the poor (
28:76-81. and n. 3404). They all came to an evil end eventually.
