Egyptian Bondage. * '
After Joseph was dead, there wa* a
change of dynasty (Exod. 1:8). The
new king, noting the rapid increase of
the Israelites, counseled the exercise of
prudence lest when war broke out they
join the enemy and fight against the
Egyptians. One of the methods to
curtail this increase was to enslave
the people. Failing in that, an edict
was issued that every male child
should be drowned. While the oppres
sion of God’s people was heading up,
God was providing a deliverer. Moses,
that deliverer, was first trained at his
mother’s knee, then at Pharaoh’s court
and finally under God’s immediate hand
in the desert.
i. The Lord Spoke to Moses From
the 3urning Bush (Exod. 3:1-6).
li was while keeping the flock of his
fati r-in-taw in the desert that the
Loi appeared to Moses in the vision
•f tie burning bush. This bush, en
vetc. wl in flames, yet nnconsumed,
symbolized the people of God efl
swatfied In the very fire of God, or
God d welling In the midst of an elect
people. Moses stepped aside to be
hold this strange sight and was taught
the essential lesson of the proper ap
proach to God. The Lord did not
leave him long in suspense. He told
him he was the God of his fathers, the
Covenant God. As soon as he knew it
was God speaking to him, he hid his
face.
11. Moses Commissioned ae the De
liverer of Hie People (Exod. 3:7-10).
1. God’s Active Interest in His Peo
ple (v. 7). In the preamble of this
commlsalon, God said to Moses, (1)
“I have seen the affiictlon of my peo
ple”; (2) *‘l have heard their cry”;
(3) “I know their sorrow.”
2. God’s Gracious Obligation to Bis
People (vv. 8,9). (1) TS deliver them
out of the hand of the Egyptians. (2)
To bring them up out of the land. (3)
To bring them into a “good land and a
large.”
3. God’a Commission to Moses (v.
10). “Come now therefore, and I will
send thee unto Pharaoh that thou
mayest bring forth my people, the
children of Israel, out of Egypt.” This
call seems to have been a great sur
prise to Moses. At any rate, he real
ized his unfitness to undertake such a
task.
111. Moses’ Objections Patiently
Heard and Removed (Exod. 3:11;
4:10).
1. Personal Unfitness (v. 11). He
realized his ins-'ifficiency for this task.
Moses did not refuse to go, but pled
his difficulty before the Lord. God
answered this difficulty by assuring
him that He «Vould be with him. The
token of Hi* presence would be His
woral) ip with the people of Israel on
this mountain.
2. The Difficulty of the People to
Understand Moses’ Relationship to
God (w. 13, 14). Moses knew how un
willing they were to acknowledge him
as their deliverer 40 years before.
SUkc God reveals Himself under a new
name as Be assumes a now relationship
to Hie people, Moses Inquired as to
what that new relationship would he,
and His corresponding name. The
Lord promptly mot this difficulty re
vealing to him a name different In
many respects from ell others previ
ously given This now name la, *T
Am.” This Bams I* tram the Hebrew
ward, “to be.” It ladle*toe (l) God’s
estf-exlatence—Che One whoa* very na
ture ft la to ha—Che ceaee of all be
ing. (t) Hl* solf-sufficiency. He said,
“I Am That I Am." Slnoe God Is the
union* Oft*. Be could not go ootalde
of HlmeoK to explain Himself; (3)
Hi* nnchangeableness. What He al
ways waa and la, He evermore shall be.
3. Unbelief on the Part of the Peo
ple (EXod. 4 :1). This difficulty the Lord
met by supplying him with credentials
which could not be gaiusaid. He was
given the power to perform supernat
ural wonders (Exod. 4:2).
4. Lack of Eloquence (Exod. 4:10).
This difficulty the Lord met by pro
viding an assistant In the person of Ills
brother Aaron. Moses was to be In the
place of God to Pharaoh and Aaron
was to be his prophet (Exod. 7:1, 2).
