Exodus 1-3

ExodusSteve Gregg
In Exodus 1-3, the Israelites were enslaved by the Pharaoh of the Hyksos dynasty in Egypt. The Pharaoh subjected them to hard labor and ordered the killing of male Hebrew babies. However, the Hebrew midwives and Moses' mother disobeyed and saved the male children. In a theophany, God appeared to Moses in a burning bush and commissioned him to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. Despite Moses' doubts and Pharaoh's resistance, God promised to strike Egypt with plagues and make the Israelites leave with favor and possessions from the Egyptians.
