Games To Teach About Moses

Gods Covenant Through Moses Desiring God. The covenant that God made with Abraham was renewed with his son Isaac. In Genesis 2. 6 3 God says to Isaac, To you and to your descendants I will give all these lands, and I will fulfill the oath which I swore to Abraham your father. And then to Isaacs son, Jacob, God appeared at Bethel according to Genesis 2. I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac the land on which you lie I will give to you and to your descendants and your descendants shall be like the dust of the earth. Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go. At the time Jacob may not have known that he would be going to Egypt and that for four hundred years his descendants would be slaves and that the promise would lie dormant until God confirmed it afresh with Moses. From Misery in Egypt to Mosaic Covenant But Gods ways are seldom our ways, and it was indeed his plan to carry his covenant people through the miseries of Egypt toward the promised land.

E.-O.-Wilson-jehovah-had-nothing-to-say-to-moses-113768.png' alt='Games To Teach About Moses' title='Games To Teach About Moses' />A. How Was This Covenant Established Lets walk through these crucial chapters together. Ill point out the main features as we go. In Exodus 1. 9 3 Moses goes up the first time into Mount Sinai, and God announces to him the general terms of the covenant in verses 5 and 6 If you obey me and keep my covenant, you will be my special possession, a kingdom of priests, a holy nation. Moses goes down, reports to the people, and in verse 8 they accept the covenant All the Lord has spoken we will do. Moses returns with this acceptance to the Lord, and in verse 9 the Lord says that he is coming to speak in earshot of the people so that they will believe Moses. In Exodus 1. 9 1. God instructs Moses to consecrate the people. In three days they are to approach the mountain. In three days the Lord descends in fire and the mountain is wrapped in smoke. God calls Moses to the top v. Then God himself 2. The people are so terrified at the voice of God that in vv. Moses, You speak to us and we will hear, but let not God speak to us lest we die. So in 2. Moses draws near to the thick darkness and receives the rest of the ordinances from the Lord. These are given in chapters 2. In Exodus 2. 4 12 God tells Moses to get the priests and the elders and to come up on the mountain. But first in Exodus 2. Moses reports all the ordinances to the people, and again they accept the terms of the covenant All the words which the Lord has spoken we will do. Then Moses writes the words he had received in a book v. He throws some blood on the altar, reads the book to the people, and throws some blood on the people vv. The implication is probably that the people are taking an oath that if they break the covenant, their blood will be shed like the oxens and it will be on their own head. Then in Exodus 2. Moses and Aaron and Nadab and Abihu and the seventy elders went up the mountain partway and had a feast and saw Gods glory. But in verse 1. 2 the Lord calls Moses further up to receive the tables of stone written by God. So Moses went up into the cloud v. Chapters 2. 53. 1 give the message God spoke to Moses, mainly a plan for the tabernacle to be built and for the ministry of the priests. When he was done speaking, God gave Moses the two tables of testimony 3. Lord. But during the forty days the people had already broken their covenant promise and made an idol. In Exodus 3. 2 8 God says, They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them. Moses prays for the people and God withholds his destruction 3. When Moses comes down to the camp v. The sons of Levi slaughter 3,0. God sends a plague v. Moses prayer. Now the question is, what becomes of the covenant They had broken it before it was even completed. If this covenant were based on works or on strict justice alone Israel would be done for. But to show that the covenant is based on grace, God renews the covenant and uses words which make this gracious foundation clear. In Exodus 3. 4 1 God tells Moses to make a new set of stone tables and to come up again. In 3. 4 67 God reveals himself and the basis of the renewed covenant The Lord passed before him and proclaimed, The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, keeping steadfast love for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and childrens children, to the third and fourth generation. Moses pleads in verse 9, Pardon our iniquity and our sin and take us for thine inheritance. And the Lord responds in verse 1. Behold, I make a covenant. Before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been wrought in all the earth or in any nation. Then in 3. Lord concludes this last meeting on Mt. Sinai like this And the Lord said to Moses, Write these words in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel. And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights he neither ate bread nor drank water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments. And he came down with his face shining because of his time with God. Stata Student Version. The rest of Exodus reports the building of the tabernacle. B. What Are the Covenants Promises and Conditions Now from that overview of how the covenant was established between God and Israel we can answer our second question what are the divine promises and human conditions of this covenant What does God commit himself to doAnd what does he require of his covenant partner Five Divine Promises Within It. First, the promises. There are at least five. Israel Will Be Gods Prized Possession In Exodus 1. God says, If you will obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my own possession among all the peoples for all the earth is mine. God mentions that all the earth is his to show that when he calls Israel his own possession, he means more than the general care and authority he has over the world. He will be Israels God and they will be his possession in a special way. They will have blessings beyond all other nations. They will be Gods prized possessionif they keep his covenant. Israel Will Be a Kingdom of Royal Priests The second promise in Exodus 1. The most striking privilege of the priests was intimate access to God. They drew near on behalf of the people. Their inheritance was not the land but the Lord. This privilege God promises to the whole nation. This privilege is heightened when God calls them a royal priesthood or priests in the services of the King.
