Session #10
Covenant 4a: Moses
Moses came from the Tribe of Levi (brother to Joesph) (the great-grandson son of Abraham whom the tribal patriarchs are), he was the great-grandson to Levi, Grandson to Kohath, and Son to Amram.
Christ (by way of Joesph) and David are from the Tribe of Judah
God does not necessary will to hide from us as much as we are deaf and blind to Him. In this case He broke into the world to get Moses's attention, and this is often the case at pivotal moments. He lets us know the path we choose whether subtly by the pang of authentic guilt as distinct from shame, letting us realize the fruit of our actions, and others, moving our heart to love what we are given, to receive it well and follow the highest good wherever it takes us.
Is there anything you are reminded of when you consider God's people being enslaved?
Slavery is just one analogy for sin
The enemy hates any effort that could liberate the slaves, and we decidedly work against it. However, God remains the Creator and has infinite strength against finite creatures. Further, all suffering is finite, even if intense.
Why might God be trying to show His people how to worship Him?
to prepare them for their time in the desert
The hell that God bestows on the enemy can be used to help us gain freedom and it is not so much God's punishment for them as it is their choice to be opposed since He is willing to relent, but justice is yet rent.
Where else have we seen unleavened bread?
Melchizedek
The Passover/the Feast of Unleavened bread is a hyper important meal for Jewish life, there are other such celebrations such as the The Feast of Weeks, and the The Feast of Booths, Rash Hasannah, and Yom Kippur
What might pass through the sea symbolize?
A final deliverance from the slavery of sin
Conception of Jesus
Matthew 3:13-17 - dove
Olive Branch definition comes from this
Demonstrates reconciliation of
"Might wind blew the Sea" from the reading
Does the Lord fight for us? How might He do that?
NOTE: our Baptism Bible Study approaches this imagery well.
