Follow along as I read through the Bible in One Year and make a daily comment!
“Then Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every skillful person in whom the Lord had put skill, everyone whose heart stirred him, to come to the work to perform it.” Exodus 36:2 God has his gifted ones to accomplish His purpose. He had greatly gifted Bezalel and Oholiab to build the Tabernacle and everything in […]
“Thus the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, just as a man speaks to his friend.” Exodus 33:11 During Israel’s journey through the Wilderness, Moses would take a tent and “pitch it outside the camp”. It was called the Tent of Meeting. It was set up for people that wanted to seek
“For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day there is a Sabbath of complete rest, holy to the Lord; whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must be put to death.” Exodus 31:15 In Chapter 20, the 10 Commandments are given to Moses. Here, we have some commentary on the
“You shall overlay it with pure gold” Exodus 25:11 God speaks to Moses and gives him specific instructions in building the Tabernacle where He “would dwell among them”. The 1st item is the Ark, that container of the Stone Tablets with the 10 Commandments written on them. Here, as He describes how it is to
“nor shall you be partial to a poor man in his dispute.” Exodus 23:3 All of us love to root for the Underdog. Whether it be a sports team, an unknown politician, or a character in a movie, it’s who we side with and pull for. It’s the American Way! But then it spills over

“So the people grumbled at Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?”” Exodus 15:24 After witnessing Miraculous Judgments against Egypt, allowing their departure; Favor curried among the Egyptians to give them Gold, Silver, and other goods; the Supernatural Parting of the Red Sea allowing their escape; and it’s closing to destroy the Egyptian Army; God’s people
“Moreover, they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.” Exodus 12:7 The Passover! What Imagery. It’s like a Movie. Israel, living in Egypt, in Bondage, are given a Message of Salvation! You can leave the World behind
But the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the sons of Israel go.” Exodus 10:20 God’s work on the earth is a Mystery. Here, in Exodus, it is vividly displayed. God’s People have cried out to Him for deliverance. Pharaoh, who has the sole authority to let them go, stands in their
“But Pharaoh said, “Who is the Lord that I should obey His voice?”” Exodus 5:2a This was Pharaoh’s reaction to Moses’ request. It is also all of Mankind’s response to God. As our Creator, God has given Man a summary of His expectations. It is contained in the 10 Commandments. He has written them on
