Why does Paul make such an abrupt change in Romans 9 and say that he hated Esau and loved Jacob? Did God harden Pharaoh's heart? Does God make some like clay doomed for destruction, while others are destined for salvation?

Why is there so much emphasis throughout the Bible that we should not judge and condemn others? What's so bad about judging and criticizing our neighbor?
