    Study Notes

    The Exodus from Egypt

    • God instructs Moses to tell the Israelites to turn back and encamp between Migdol and the sea, in front of Baal-zephon.
    • Pharaoh and his army will pursue the Israelites, and God will get glory over Pharaoh and all his host.
    • The Israelites do as God instructed, and Pharaoh and his army pursue them, overtaking them at the sea.

    The Parting of the Red Sea

    • The Israelites cry out to the Lord, and Moses tells them to fear not and stand firm, for God will fight for them.
    • God instructs Moses to stretch out his staff and divide the sea, allowing the Israelites to pass through on dry ground.
    • The Egyptians pursue, but God hardens their hearts, and they are thrown into a panic, with their chariot wheels clogged.
    • The Israelites pass through the sea, while the Egyptians are thrown into the midst of the sea, and the waters cover them.
    • The Israelites see the dead Egyptians on the seashore and fear the Lord, believing in Him and His servant Moses.

    The Wilderness of Sin

    • The Israelites journey to the wilderness of Sin, between Elim and Sinai, and grumble against Moses and Aaron.
    • God responds by promising to rain bread from heaven, and the people will gather a day's portion every day.
    • On the sixth day, the people gather twice as much, and on the Sabbath, there is no bread.
    • Moses instructs the people to gather only what they can eat, but some disobey and leave some until morning, which breeds worms and stinks.

    The Sabbath

    • The people are to bake and boil what they need on the sixth day, and store the leftovers for the Sabbath.
    • On the seventh day, some people go out to gather, but find none, as God has kept the Sabbath holy.

    The Manna

    • The Israelites call the bread "manna," which is like coriander seed, white, and tastes like wafers made with honey.
