Chapter 3 of Exodus: The Burning Bush is such a miracle sight to behold. A bush on fire but doesn’t burn. Verse 8 we see God has heard the cries of his people and He will deliver them from Egypt and has chosen to do so through Moses. Verse 14 I will share two photos with you that my Bible uses to explain I am That I Am in that verse. See below:
Verses 15-22: We the commission of Moses are thr promise and prophecy God had previously given unto Abraham in Genesis 15:12-20.
Chapter 4: Begins with Moses objecting to God’s commission of him verses 1-18. Here you see God turn the rod in Moses hands into a serpent. Moses hand became covered in leprosy and when he put his hand back to his bosom it was flesh as his other hand was. The water from the river shall turn to blood should they not believe Moses based on the first two signs by God. Moses kept objecting and eventually Lord’s anger was kindled against Moses in verse 14. Verses 19-28 The return of Moses to Egypt and Aaron meets Moses after the Lord told him to meet Moses in the wilderness. Verses 29-31 Deliverance was announced: Moses and Aaron gathered the elders snd spoke about all that God had told them and performed the signs and the people believed.
Chapter 5 we see the Pharaoh’s heart is already harden against the Hebrews and not knowing who God is refusing to let them go. Will share what my Bible says about chapter 5. See below:
Chapter 6: Following verses 22-23 of the previous chapter and questions asked of Moses unto God in chapter 6:1-13 we see God answer him. Verses 14-27 we see the Families of Israel that God sent Moses and Aaron to deliver out of Egypt (Genesis 45:9-11).
Chapter 7 we see the renewed commission with God and Moses and Aaron to go unto Pharaoh and they show the First and Second Miracles ( reminder of the first and second the rod to a serpent and the water turns to blood).
Before moving to chapter 8 and chapter 9 let me share this The Ten Plagues Of Egypt begins in chapter 7 and ends in chapter 12. See below:
Chapter 7 was the first plague with the Nile to blood (Ex. 7:20). Chapter 8 where we continue with is Frogs in verse 6. The Pharaoh calls forth Moses and Aarons and to ask the Lord to remove the frogs and he will let them go verse 8. The Lord hears Moses and does so but Pharaoh harden gis heart again verse 15. Verse 17 is dust shall become lice. Again the Pharaoh harden his heart. Verse 24 swarm of flies comes unto Pharaoh and his people but not unto the people of God. Verse 25 Pharaoh calls them back tells them to go and saceifice unto your God in the land. Verse 26-32. Moses explains they have to go to the wilderness that which the Lord commanded them to go unto to sacrifice and Pharaoh refuses to let them go. Yet Pharaoh harden his heart once again once Moses went to God to ask the removal of the swarm flies and the Lord did so. 3 of 10 plagues in chapter 8.
Chapter 9: verse 3 death of all the living livestock of Egypt except those belonging to Israel not a one of their’s died. Pharaoh harden his heart once again. Verse 9 boils using ashes of the furnace to create boils upon the Egyptians and Pharaoh’s heart was still harden against them. Verse 24 God sends hail to the land of Egypt. Verse 14-21 God talks to Moses to relay back to Pharaoh what he will bring next. Verse 14: that there is none like me in all the earth.
Verse 27: Pharaoh calls them back saying to interact with God and get the hail to stop and I will let you go. Moses asks God and He stops the hail and fire and then verse 35 we see Pharaoh has harden his heart again and refuses to let them go.
Which concludes the weeks reading of Exodus Chapter 3 through chapter 9.
Will try to come do a weeks follow-up come the following Sunday on the 7th. I work so hopefully will have the time to come back and see where in the Bible we go this week and what is to come next for Moses and Israel people and Pharaoh and the Egyptians.
God bless you and your loved ones.
