Exodus 21 - God's Judgments

Image
The following are the judgments that God told Moses to set before the Israelites. Hebrew servants - If a Hebrew servant is bought, he is to serve six years. In the seventh year he is free to leave at no cost. If it is only him when he becomes a servant, then only he can leave. However, if he has a wife and becomes a servant, then he and his wife are allowed to leave. If he is given a wife by the master during the time that he is a servant and they have children, the wife and the children shall remain and only he is allowed to leave. If the servant decides to stay because of his love for his master, wife and children, then the master shall take him to the judges and bring him to the door or doorpost.  Google sources state that the door could refer to the gates of the city where the judges are or the door(post) of the master's house.  The master shall pierce his ear with an awl  (a small pointed tool used for piercing holes, especially in leather and wood). Based on the def...

Exodus 20 - Follow The Rules!

Image
  Exodus 19 ended with Moses going down the mountain to speak to the people. Chapter 20 begins with God speaking and giving the Ten Commandments. So, I wondered if God was speaking with all of Israel or just Moses. So, I googled. Enduringword.com - a. And God spoke: It is proper to believe that God spoke these words to Israel as a whole, as they assembled together at the foot of Mount Sinai. Biblehub.com refers to Deuteronomy 5:22 which reads "These words the Lord spoke to all your assembly, in the mountain from the midst of the fire, the cloud, and the thick darkness, with a loud voice..." The verses before Verse 22 are the Ten Commandments reviewed and verses after Verse 22 talk about the people being afraid to hear from God in His glory and His greatness. They feared that they would die. This research has changed my thinking that God only spoke to Moses when He initially gave the Ten Commandments. Now, on with the summary - God spoke saying, "I am the Lord your God, w...

Exodus 19 - Got A Meeting At The Mountain

Image
  In the third month after Israel left Egypt, on the same day, they came to the Wilderness of Sinai. They left Rephidim and came to the Wilderness of Sinai and camped in the wilderness before the mountain. Moses went up to God and the Lord called to him from the mountain  (first trip up the mountain) . God told Moses to tell the Israelites that they had seen what He did to the Egyptians and bore them on eagles' wings and brought them to Him.  The imagery of eagles' wings conveys the idea of a loving Father lifting His children far beyond their inherent capacity. He sustained them through tribulation while magnifying their best efforts and endowing them with power to attain His desires for them. Also, the imagery shows the care and protection that eagles instinctively give their offspring learning to fly (source: thechurchnews.com).  God told Moses to tell them that if they obeyed His voice and kept His covenant, then they would be a special treasure to Him above all ...

Exodus 18 - You Are Doing Way Too Much!

Image
  Moses' father-in-law, Jethro, the priest of Midian, heard all that God had done for Moses and the Israelites. He heard that the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt. Jethro took Moses' wife Zipporah back to Moses with their two sons, Gershom (for Moses said, "I have been a stranger in a foreign land") and Eliezar (for Moses said,"The God of my father was my help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh"). Jethro took them to the wilderness, where Moses was encamped at the mountain of God. Jethro sent word to Moses that he was bringing Zipporah and the boys to him. Moses went out to meet Jethro and bowed down and kissed him. They exchanged "niceties" and went into the tent. Moses told his father-in-law all that God had done to Pharaoh and the Egyptians on Israel's behalf. He told him all of the hardship they endured on the way and how God delivered them. Jethro rejoiced for all the good God had done for Israel by delivering them out of the hand...

Exodus 17 - Hands Up! Winning!

Image
All of the congregation of Israel set out on their journey from the Wilderness of Sin as commanded by the Lord and camped in Rephidim. There was no water for them to drink in Rephidim. The people contended with Moses, saying, "Give us water, that we may drink." Moses' response was, "Why do you contend with me? Why do you tempt the Lord?" The people were thirsty for water and they complained against Moses. The people asked Moses, "Why is it you have brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?''  I guess they forgot that it was God who actually parted the Red Sea and who led them with the pillar of cloud and pillar of fire. Moses was just the easy target for them, I guess! Contending with God was going to be a lost battle.  So, Moses cried out to the Lord, saying, "What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me!" God told Moses to go before the people and to take some of the eld...

Scriptures for June 21st

Leviticus 26:21 - 'Then, if you walk contrary to Me, and are not willing to obey Me, I will bring on you seven times more plagues, according to your sins. (NKJV) God does not approve of your disobedience to Him! Leviticus 1 6:21 - Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, confess over it all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, concerning all their sins, putting them on the head of the goat, and shall send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a suitable man. (NKJV) Would you be considered suitable in God's eyes?

Exodus 16 - Got A Complaint Against God?

Image
  After leaving Elim, the children of Israel came to the Wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai. They arrived at the Wilderness of Sin on the 15th of the second month after departing Egypt. The entire congregation of the Israelites complained against Moses and Aaron.  The name, "Wilderness of Sin" is just the name of the region. "Sin" in this sense is not speaking of immoral behavior. However, it is ironic that the Israelites are continuing to sin by complaining while in the Wilderness of Sin.  The children of Israel said, "Oh, that we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the pots of meat and when we ate bread to the full! For you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger."  Here they go again, glorifying their time in Egyptian bondage because they are seemingly facing adversity in the wilderness! Didn't God just provide them with twelve wells of water at Elim? Once aga...

Scriptures for June 20th

Deuteronomy 6:20 - "When your son asks you in time to come, saying, 'What is the meaning of the testimonies, the statutes, and the judgments which the Lord our God has commanded you?' (NKJV) Are you teaching your children the reasons for family or spiritual traditions? Exodus 1 6:20 - Notwithstanding they did not heed Moses. But some of them left part of it until morning, and it bred worms and stank. And Moses was angry with them. (NKJV) Sometimes, not following instructions can cause a stink.

Exodus 15 - A Praise Team With Praise Dancers

Image
Below are parts of the song broken down into sections. Singing God's Attributes and Promises God is gloriously triumphant. The Lord is my strength, song, and salvation. He is my God and my father's God. The Lord is a man of war; The Lord is His name. God's right hand is glorious in power. There is greatness in God's excellence. A blast from God's nostrils caused the waters to gather together; the floods stood upright like a heap; the depths congealed in the heart of the sea. God is a merciful, strong Leader and Redeemer who led the Israelites to His holy habitation. There is greatness in the arm of the Lord. God would take His people and plant them in the mountain of His inheritance, the place He made for His own dwelling, the sanctuary His hands established.  (A Promise Keeper) The Lord reigns forever and ever. The children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.  (A Way Maker) Defeat of the Enemies God threw the horses and riders into the sea. God cast...

Exodus 14 - Stand Still And Walk

Image
  The Lord told Moses to tell the children of Israel that they should camp by the sea; they should turn and camp before Pi Hahiroth, between Midgol and the sea, opposite Baal Zephon. Pharaoh would think the children of Israel are wandering around the land confused and that they are boxed in by the wilderness.  Has God ever directed you in such a way that your enemies assumed that you were clueless as to how to handle their antics?  The Lord said that He would harden Pharaoh's heart so that he would pursue the Israelites. God is doing this so that He will gain honor over Pharaoh and his army and the Egyptians will know that He is the Lord.  In other words, God was letting the Egyptians know that He is in control of this situation. Verse 4 ends with the words, "And they did so." Of course, the different commentaries indicate that this means that the Israelites camped where they were instructed in obedience to God. I also like to think that since this verse was talking ...

Exodus 13 - Don't Forget To Remember

Image
  God told Moses to consecrate all of the firstborn to Him. He said whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel, whether of man or beast, they belong to Him.  So does that include the females if they are the firstborn? Yes, I googled. Most sources concur that this only applied to the firstborn males that opened the womb. So if the firstborn was a female, and a son was born afterwards, the rule did not apply to that son. The reason being that the firstborn son in this case didn't open the womb. Now, what did it mean for the firstborn to be consecrated to the Lord? For humans, this meant that the firstborn male would be sanctified for the Lord's service. For clean animals, like sheep, this meant they would be sacrificed to the Lord. For unclean animals, like the firstborn of a donkey, a clean animal could be sacrificed. Moses told the people to remember the day in which they were brought out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. It was by the strength of the hand of th...
