Q&A#78 Echoes of Exodus in the Great Commission?

Today's question: "Do you see any parallels between the great commission and the exodus? I don’t want to get Echo-crazy. Just from a surface level, there some to be some connections: confrontation with “the name,” a sending out, baptism, and the nations called to the Lord. Am I crazy, or is there something going on here?"

Within this video, I reference the following books and articles:
