And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night. He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, not the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.” (Exodus 3: 20-22)
The bible tells us that the Israelites were oppressed in Egypt. Ultimately, the Lord will deliver them out of Egypt and lead them into the Promised Land. The journey of the oppressed Israelites will take about forty years and the Lord will be with them all along. And all these are documented in the book of Exodus.
Exodus or Exo-dus means “the journey of the- oppressed.” Exo pronounced as Egi’zo in Geez and Tigre means “Travelling” or “journey.”
