https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 2 * PART 3 * BOOK 7 POPULATION EXPLOSION: BIRTH AND REJECTION OF MOSES Genesis 46 - Exodus 4 Let's turn again to Exodus Chapter 2. Remember last lesson, Moses had made his presentation to Israel, and he had everything going for him but he was rejected. So turn to Genesis 15. You must remember all of these things were in God's mind before they ever happened. That's the beauty of prophecy, and that's again the substantiation that the Bible is the Word of God, because God foretold things before they ever happened. So Abraham says in verse 8: Genesis 15:8 "And he said, Lord God, Whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?" This land You are talking about. Verse 13 is where it begins: Genesis 15:13 "And he (God) said unto Abram, Know of a surety (In other words God said it and you can bank on it) that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs (Egypt), and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;" Genesis 15:14-16 Now, let's come back to Exodus 2, and after Moses kills the Egyptian, he has to flee: Exodus 2:15 "Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian (A land east of the Sinai Peninsula): and he sat down by a well." Now, let's look at verse 17: Exodus 2:17-19 Now verse 18: Now, let's finish verse 19: Let's look at verse 21: Exodus 2:21-23 "And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter." It happened to Joseph and it's happened to Moses. A Gentile! A Gentile Bride. So now let's look at verse 23: Acts 7:23 Then drop down to verse 30: Acts 7:30 Now, let's go back to Exodus, Chapter 2 and verse 24: Exodus 2:24,25 "And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob." Now, I hammer that Covenant into people, constantly. The Son of God - the Messiah. God, now realizes that it's time for Him to move, according to His own prophetic utterances, back there to Abraham. He remembered the Covenant that He made with Abraham. Now verse 25: "And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them." God remembered them, and now He's going to start making things happen. Let's go on to Chapter 3: Exodus 3:1 "Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law..." Please remember, Joseph is the second man. Genesis 46:34 The cattlemen thought cattle were king. I don't like sheep. A shepherd! God had a purpose. As Moses is herding his sheep, he comes to the back side of the desert. Now, verse 1b: Exodus 3:1b,2 "...and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb." This term, "angel of the Lord" pops up so often through the Old Testament and I want everyone to know without a doubt who is this angel of the Lord. Genesis 48:16 In other words Jacob says the Redeeming Angel. It's Christ. He's Jehovah in the Old Testament, the Son of God, The Angel of God, but it's always the second Person in the Trinity. It's God the Son. Jehovah, God the Son. Verse 2 continuing: Exodus 3:2-5 Someone once made the comment that this burning bush was a picture of Israel. Israel is constantly in the fires of judgment. The nation of Israel is still on the scene. "And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt." "And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses." Because Christ is God! Exodus 3:6 "Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob (why does God repeat this over and over again? Jacob also saw God; he wrestled with Him. But always remember I've always taught you that the God-Head, The Trinity, is The invisible Spirit God. The Trinity is invisible, and no man has ever seen the God-Head. God the Son. Hebrews 1:1,2 "God (Just plain, absolute GOD, the Triune, the Eternal Sovereign God), who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets..." - The Old Testament. That same God: spoken unto us by his Son,..." So, in verse one you have the Triune God, but how does the Triune God speak to mankind? - through the Son. "In the beginning God..." Scripture contributes the creation to God the Son. Exodus 3:7,8 First it's "God," - Elohim, the Triune Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Jehovah. God the Son. Who is God the Son? My people. "'And I am come down to deliver them out of the land of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land (Canaan. Remember what He said back in Genesis 15? Today, the nation of Israel is still God's chosen people. God is bringing the Jews back to Palestine. #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
