Study 03 From The book of Exodus Is: Exodus
4:18-6: 9
1. Contrast 4:29-31 with
5:20-21. What had happened to change the
people’s attitude?
How did Moses react?
2. Consider God’s answer to
Moses’s cry. What does it teach us about
the faithfulness of God and the reliability of His promises?
Notes:
1. 4:24. This seems to mean that
Moses was struck down by a severe and dangerous illness, the result of his
neglect to circumcise his son; and his life was saved by Zipporah’s prompt
action. He could not act as God’s instrument
while in disobedience to His covenant. Cf. Gn. 17:10
2. 6:3. ‘Did not make myself
known: i.e, as One whose name is ‘the Lord’ or ‘I AM’. Cf. 3:14. Once only in
Genesis did God use that name of Himself, and then without emphasis or
explanation (Gn. 28:13)
