Moses Messes Up Numbers 20:1-13 Things have really been going badly for the people of Israel, the people of God. First, they refused to enter the land, thus sentenced to wander till that generation died. Second, Korah and his delinquent followers put up a smoke screen for a coup d’etat and ended up suffering the wrath […]
The Korah Rebellion and the Budding of Aaron’s Staff Numbers 16:1-50; 17:1-13 The people had disobeyed. They were to wander for forty, long years in the wilderness.

Twelve Spies, Rebellion and Wandering Numbers 13:1—14:45 Being in the desert was not optimal for the people (in their eyes). They deserved better (or so they thought) than what God was giving them.

Tabernacle at Mount Sinai Exodus 35:4—40:38 The tabernacle was one of the most interesting things in Israelite history. Tabernacle means tent and is referred to as the Tent of Meeting.

Moses and the Glory of Yahweh at Mount Sinai Exodus 33:12-23; 34:29-35 Moses had spent considerable time with the Lord up on the mountain—a couple of 40 days worth. God told Moses all of the laws and decrees that the nation of Israel were supposed to live by in order to be a holy and separate […]
Golden Calf Incident at Mount Sinai Exodus 32:1-35 This story pops out of what has been (in Exodus) an instructional account of how to make the tabernacle and how the Israelites are to live and act in this new land they are heading to.

Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai Exodus 19:1 – 20:21 The Israelites were journeying across the desert on their way to the long-awaited Promise Land, when the Lord had them stop and camp at Mount Sinai, the mountain of God.

Water and Food in the Desert Exodus 15:22 – 18:27 This section contains many stories of what happened with the Israelites after the Red Sea incident.

The Escape From Egypt Exodus 12:31 – 14:31 Apparently the final plague was too much for the hard-hearted Pharaoh. He just could not contend and be stubborn against the God of the Israelites.

Ten Plagues Against Egypt Exodus 7:14 – 12:30 Talk about an awesome display of the power of God! The chronicles of the plagues of Egypt brings tingles up one’s spine!

Moses Confronts Pharaoh Exodus 4:18 – 7:13 After the infamous encounter with Yahweh on Mount Horeb, Moses returned to his father-in-law Jethro to secure permission for him to leave for Egypt (remember when Jacob did not secure blessing from Laban, his wife’s father, to leave?). After receiving Jethro’s blessing, Moses packed up his family and […]
The Burning Bush Exodus 3:1 – 4:17 Moses was faithfully tending the flocks of his father-in-law on the far side of the desert. He came to a mountain, which is referred to as the mountain of God. It was there on this mountain that God called to Moses out of a burning bush. The text […]
Moses is Exiled Exodus 2:11-25 From Moses’ growing up years till now, he has been a resident and quite possibly a “prince” in the land of Egypt living in the household of Pharaoh (much of these years are subject to conjecture on behalf of storytellers, but some of it can be held to be assumed). […]
Birth of Moses Exodus 2:1-10 The backdrop for this story occurs in the chapter preceding (obviously). The king of Egypt has issued a decree that all Hebrew boys upon birth are to be thrown into the Nile River (Exod 1:22). The Israelites are doing all they can to prevent such a tragedy to their children, […]
