  1. Week 5 Redeemed with Purpose • The Context • The patriarchal period ends with the Israelites in Egypt. • Preservation through Joseph. • A small number enter Egypt and a large number leave (Abrahamic promise). • The guests become slaves under a new pharaoh. • God prepares for redemption by raising up Moses. • Note the connection to the Abrahamic covenant (Ex. 2:24)

  2. Week 5 Redeemed with Purpose b) The Divine Initiative • The revelation is God’s spoken word not the burning bush. • God’s call is personal, specific, inviting, and transformational. • God’s identification of Himself as the God of the Patriarchs connects the Exodus to the Abrahamic Covenant. • God’s further revelation by His covenant name—Yahweh—reveals Him as active in the present and future.

  3. Week 5 Redeemed with Purpose c) Moses’s Mission • Notice the balance between sovereign activity and human response. • God’s promise of His presence is the answer to all Moses’s objections. d) The Divine Name • Comes from the verb “to be” in the Hebrew. • God is absolutely self-existent. • I am who I have always been.

  4. Week 5 Redeemed with Purpose e) The Priestly Nation • “Brought you to myself” indicates they are God’s by creation and redemption. • “For all the earth is mine” is statement of missiological intent. • Israel to be a “kingdom of priests and a holy nation.” • They are to represent the King as a people who obey His Word, reflect His character, and advance His kingdom.
