Join us in this episode as we journey back to ancient Egypt and the dramatic beginnings of the Book of Exodus. We'll explore the riveting stories of the Israelites' oppression under Pharaoh, the miraculous survival and calling of Moses—from a baby in a basket to a leader at a burning bush —and the initial confrontations that set the stage for liberation.

Discover who God reveals Himself to be: the covenant-keeping God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the great "I AM", whose power is displayed through awe-inspiring signs and wonders. We'll delve into the rich attributes of God as portrayed in these early narratives—His deep compassion for the suffering, His unwavering faithfulness to His promises, His awesome power to intervene in human history, and His profound holiness.

Finally, we'll unpack the "Divine Mandates" that emerge from these stories. What do these early chapters tell us about God's expectations for humanity's relationship with Him (from reverence and obedience to worship), with each other (touching on justice, community care, and even recompense for oppression), and with the created world? We'll also look at the initial references to food, both as sustenance and as part of sacred offerings.

Tune in for a deep dive into a foundational text, revealing a God who is intimately involved, powerfully active, and establishing a path for His people.
