In relation to this project‚ I will discuss some of the texts surrounding the Exodus narratives in the Old Testament. In particular‚ the Israelites move from Egypt to the Promise Land (Exodus 14)‚ their wilderness experience (Num. 32‚ Joshua 5) and entering the Promised Land. In the New Testament‚ I will discuss the leaving of Jesus and the coming of the Holy Spirit recorded in the Gospels

believe the mere concept of this miraculous happening‚ found in Exodus‚ can teach us great lessons about our humanity. John Collins‚ author of A Short Introduction to the Hebrew Bible‚ reminds us that a careful examination of the exodus account raises questions and is debatable. The geographical location‚ the record keeping of the Egyptians and the common genre of the stories in Exodus provide for scholarly debate. Collins presents Exodus with two primary themes: the revelations of YHWH and the liberation

Moses In the Exodus story‚ Moses is the one trusted man by God. He is like a messenger and a task doer. God has all his trust in him and hold him accountable for his whole congregation of Israel. Moses was the actor and the emissary of all of God’s miracles. He was the most important figure in the Exodus biblical text. However‚ It is very clear that The Passover Haggadah only talks about the redemption from Egypt to god and doesn’t implicate any human role. Moses role in Exodus is clearly downplayed

Scott did not accurately portray the biblical version of the Hebrew Exodus. Many things portrayed in the movie either didn’t happen in the bible or were very different than the Exodus. Some examples would be that Moses had a different personality in the movie‚ Moses didn’t perform the three miracles‚ God wasn’t a little boy‚ and several other things. These are a few of the problems that lead the movie away from the text. In the Exodus passage‚ Moses was a timid man and when God first asked him to go
