Yeshua taught the written words of The Father to live by. That's the message from in His first public teaching known as the Sermon on the Mount. After repeating several blessings, Jesus laid it all out for everyone: "For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not a...
When I say it is not a “stand-alone” book, though, I mean more than that it is part of a group. Just as Exodus is a sequel to what happened in Genesis, so Leviticus chronologically follows what happened in Exodus. In Exodus Goddelivered His people from Egypt. In Exodus 19 we find...
Another example even before the exodus was when God called Moses to be Israel’s leader and bring His people out of Egypt. Moses gave every excuse in the book as to why he couldn’t (and I am sure I would have done the same). But God had all the details worked out and would equi...
At another time, God called an insignificant man named Moses. His assignment was to lead the children of Israel out of Egyptian bondage of slavery. Moses had to contend with Pharaoh to persuade him to free God’s chosen people out of slavery in Egypt. There are dozens of other Biblical le...
the modern consensus seems to be that it dates to post-exilic times and is linked somehow to the Jewish diaspora in Egypt. The canonical narrative begins and ends with a focus on the twelve sons of Jacob who are to become the twelve tribes of Israel; but as we know, thetwelve-tribe mo...

Exodus 32:1 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, ...
Exodus 14:11 They said to Moses, “Is it because there are no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? What have you done to us in bringing us out of Egypt?Exodus 14:12 Is not this what we said to you in Egypt: ‘Leave us alone that we may serve...
Numbers 20:15LEB our ancestors went down to Egypt, and we lived in Egypta long time, and the Egyptians mistreated us and our ancestors. InExodus 12:40we see a reference that spells out how long Israel was there in captivity; that would indicate that“yôm”also meant 430 years. ...
