Why could Pharaoh not turn to God and ask, why did you make me this way?

Les explains that people are not sinners because they sin; they sin because they are sinners, born of Adam. In Pharaoh's case, when God hardened Pharaoh, it was not that Pharaoh had no choice. Rather, when God put him on the spot, Pharaoh bristled up and said he would not let those people go, so he hardened really his own heart. Paul goes on to anticipate the objection, "why doth he find fault? For who hath resisted his will?" and answers, "Nay, but, O man, who art thou that replyest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?" Les says Pharaoh could not turn around in the face of God and say, "Why did you make me what I am?" He had no right to say that, because of his own volition he rejected God's offer of taking Israel out of Egypt.
